English Language degrees in Wales

Lots of resources online such as the online library as well as one in real life to visit at any time. The city itself hasn't got much going on which is probably the worst aspect but it's definitely still lively for a night out and has its perks as everything is so close together. Nearby is hundreds of amazing landscapes that make for a good hike; if you're an outdoor person this is the place for you. There's also hundreds of clubs that are very welcoming and easy to sign up for and of course the nightlife is full of pubs and a great club that you'll see everyone at from Wednesday to Saturday. There's so many courses that go from really specific to much broader so there's something for everyone and on my course at least there's a good mix of written work and course work.

Best aspects would definitely be the people and the location. By the beach but with safe and lively night life, which in my opinion is important for most undergrad students, also the welsh are lovely and friendly. It depends on the area but overall the city feels extremely safe which was important for me. Some of the buildings on the old campus (singleton) look a bit run-down especially when the sun isn't out so it might be worth them revamping some buildings to make certain parts look less depressing. But again thats only a few, and the walk to campus is lovely especially as theres a massive park/green space right next to campus, with a 2 minute detour taking you right to the beach. Can't say too much on the students' union because it looks good but i havent really engaged with it. They always have some sort of event going on but honestly i havent been to many, so maybe the events could be more engaging so more people including myself would go.

One of the best aspects of my university experience has been the way my lecturers teach. They provide us with a clear and complete framework for each topic, which guides our independent reading and studying while ensuring that we remain on the right track. This approach encourages us to think critically and develop our own understanding rather than simply relying on lecture materials. In addition, being part of a diverse student community has been incredibly enriching. Engaging with people from different backgrounds allows us to share different perspectives and personal stories, which makes academic discussions more dynamic and broadens my overall outlook. However, one area that could be improved is the availability of internship and competitive scheme opportunities. While it is inspiring to be surrounded by ambitious peers, these opportunities are often very limited and highly competitive. Expanding partnerships with external organisations or increasing the number of placements would allow more students to gain valuable practical experience alongside their studies.
