Electronic Engineering degrees in All England

People are friendly on course and tutors. Good contact time with tutors. Library really nice place to study. Need more places to have lunch in John Foster building as gets full in busy times, AR library and cafe needs more refill spaces for water bottles, better signage in John foster as it’s like a maze with no floorplans! More accessible plug sockets in rooms and lecture halls as sometimes it’s hard to find them and will need laptops all day. More seating in John Lennon building for lunches as feels like there’s loads of space but not lots of space to sit down with friends during busy times between 12-1. Issue timetables in advance to give us notice and don’t change rooms at last minute.

Positive aspects: University buildings, classrooms, teachers. Negative aspects: University location, support for students. The start time of morning classes has changed due to the long distance for students. More support for students.

WIFI is absolutely awful and there are many dead zones around campus. How can a top-level engineering university provide such poor internet connection, especially when all of our assignments are internet based and due online? I am constantly searching for places around campus with any useable connection and the VPN speeds when you're off campus are just unusable. It's the year 2024. How have we not figured this out yet? It's absolutely unaccusable. You have the money to build an entire new campus, but can't fix the internet at your main campus? Awful.

The placement of the campus is great with lots of food establishments both on campus and around, making it easier to study for longer at the library. It is also close to both elephant and castle and Southwark underground stations so the commute is simple. Most of the buildings are modern and have a spacious feel, although I would like to add that I was underwhelmed by the business school as it seems slightly outdated compared to the rest of the university facilities. The staff are great and I have had great teaching along with materials so far. I would have preferred lecture theatres for my lectures to encourage me to attend as I enjoyed this experience at the previous university I attended, and so this has given it a more “high school” feel rather than university which is disappointing.

The University of Hertfordshire has great facilities, but there are quite a few unnecessary procedures that could be streamlined, such as booking appointments for even the smallest matters. My experience so far has been disappointing from an academic perspective. I was expecting better quality education, but instead, most of the lectures consist of simply reading from PowerPoint slides, and the practical sessions have been far from engaging. While I understand that self-study is important, not all students, especially international ones like myself, have prior industrial experience or expertise. It's crucial that the university recognizes this and provides clearer, more detailed information about the curriculum, how exams work, and what is expected in terms of assessments. Relying solely on self-study and putting too much responsibility on the students isn’t fair, especially when we're paying for a quality education.

The support Brighton Uni has given me so much support with this course and made it very clear who to contact if any issues arise. I also know from friends how incredibly supportive and sympathetic the uni has been when they have experienced personal issues. This is my second Uni I have studied at, and Brighton is far better with the support it gives its students compared to the first one.

I can't say much for now since I only started about a month ago but so far I am enjoying my course the university itself feels welcoming. Teachers are supportive on our education. That's all I can say for now but I like kingston university not to mention being able to visit other campuses. So far the rating I would give kingston uni is 8.3/10

Best part of the uni is it's facilities like the David Wilson Library and sports centers,student union , career hub etc. Accommodation is decent, with options in the city and The Village, though the latter is farther from campus. On the downside, some buildings feel outdated, Wi-Fi can be patchy, and travel from The Village to campus can be inconvenient. Overall, it’s supportive with room for improvement.

The facilities that supports s the class activities are top notch as they help students gain practical experience of what they are taught theoretically. More so, the laboratory support is quite great.

As an online student at the University of Portsmouth, I found the flexibility of the digital platform to be one of the biggest advantages. The ability to access lectures and resources on your own schedule made balancing studies with work and personal commitments much easier. The virtual learning environment was user-friendly, and the dedicated support staff helped resolve any technical issues promptly, contributing to a seamless learning experience. However, the online format also had its challenges. One of the most significant downsides was the reduced opportunity for face-to-face interaction, which made networking and building a community with peers a bit more difficult. Additionally, while the digital resources were comprehensive, there were occasional delays in receiving feedback or accessing certain materials compared to traditional classroom settings. Overall, my online experience at Portsmouth was highly rewarding, with the flexibility and accessibility being standout features. Addressing the challenges of community engagement and streamlining feedback processes could further enhance the online learning experience.
