Engineering Technology degrees in North West England

The SU seems really out of touch and dominated by 3rd year students who don't give one or are clinging to any form of relevance. People shouldn't run an SU to pad out their CV, they should actually care. Being in the SU cafe just feels like a walking billboard, the amount of harassment I receive from different people advertising things to me as I sit down is crazy.

The lecturers are really approachable and want you to succeed. It feels really inclusive and diversity is appreciated. Being so close to Manchester there's lots going on and good transport links. The only real criticism I have is the use of online lectures, how ever much they try, they aren't as condusive to learning as in person lectures are especially if you have difficulties with concentration. I understand that universities are trying to find ways to cut costs but I feel that this detracts from the whole student experience both academically and socially.

i love how social it is, that it's all one campus and there is always something going on. I don't think there are enough study spaces (group/social ones in particular), oftentimes it is really difficult to find a space unless you go early in the morning and get one.

The course I am on, the staff are very supportive, very helpful and knowledgeable. The uni itself is a little outdated, not enough places to sit at breaktimes, and not enough facilities such as kettles and microwaves. Library is good and staff are very helpful

Best experiences include opportunities and practical application of learning. Worst aspects have been a lack of connections to the industry and unorganised management team (late and wrong timetabling, deadline issues)
