My university is small and friendly which I love. Everyone is looking out for each other and there’s plenty of activities to keep you occupied. The teachers and staff are very supportive of our studies, if we have any questions they are keen to answer. The only downside Id say is if you are travelling to university each day and don’t own a car, the nearest train station is a 30 minute walk. It sometimes leaves people in a rush.

The university lacks greenery, despite being next to it's own park there's rarely greenery near campus. The university had prospects of a roof garden yet it's barren and dying and in an inopportune location to access. There's much more room for opportunity for a garden outside of the vegan "Vert café" on the sixth floor which is more likely to get volunteers from a community who focuses highly on greenery. The art building, despite being an art building, startling lacks art and colour. Aside from scarce photos the building feels very stagnant. The allowance of more murals (see the sixth floor's Game of Thrones mural for reference) would brighten the building up, as well as larger art on the outside as proposed in the newly released render of the new park layout. As a student who lacks roof access I cannot comment on whether the uni has renewable solutions for energy such as solar panels (though some are visible in BD for testing) but the inclusion of more renewables would be a very welcome sight.

I like how everything is on campus, convenient, I love the study spaces available at varying levels of quietness. The student union is cheap but could do with a bit of updating. I like the assessments we are given, a variety like presentations and essays writing blogs however the feedback could be more informative. I definitely miss home more than I thought so I wish I had chosen a closer uni most of my friends are off campus which makes the weekends and evenings lonely.

I study on Loughry Campus, Cookstown. It is not located in a city and is a rural location, which I understand may put some people off. But the education programme here is second to none. Staff offer all the support you need and more, and as they are industry expects. The ability to network, liaise with industry professionals, gain experience and learn for working life via practical means allows for almost 100% of Loughry students to be employed by the time they finish final year. The rural position of the college isn’t something to see as negative, as the student council organise events, bus trips and lifts to all the bars, clubs, party nights happening all over the country. There is something to get involved in weekly. If you see something you’d like to attend, they are usually more than happy to organise a trip there! Everyone’s so friendly. In terms of facilities, Loughry has everything a food technology student needs, whether on a science lab front for food micro or chemical analysis to actual state of the art food production facilities. Loughry is a DAERA site also, so industry professionals are on campus regularly, trying out new recipe formulations where students and staff participate in taste panels to gauge the acceptability of new products to the market. If not trailing recipes, professions come to Loughry to seek advice on food production, new product development, packaging and marketing. Again, all the lecturers at Loughry are industry professionals so you feel like everything you learn is completely relevant, and again, it’s great for networking. I’ve loved my time at Loughry, and I may be biased but I can honestly say from my experience that I have been well and truly set up for a career in the food industry. I graduate in June 2022 and have already secured a full time job in the industry.

I like the events that the university holds sometimes to support the students like free breakfast or career fairs and also inclusive events including Chinese new year. I really don't have anything bad to say

It is overall a good Uni with lots of well funded resources and opportunities. To improve it would need to put a greater store in supporting its ND students and taking a more student centric view of its curriculum. It currently has a do or die survival of the fittest approach rather than building a framework for success and guiding students to prosper.
