My campus is a short walk from Liverpool city centre. Makes my breaks during classes worth it. There’s also a free shuttle bus for all Hope students to use to get between Hope Park and the Creative Campus.

What students say about environmental-science

The area has a very town-ish feel, not too busy with a very homely feel to it. Lecturers are very quick to respond to queries and always provide extremely helpful advice and explain things very well. One slight improvement would be the advertisements of all the societies we have at bangor, as I can’t seem to find the full list of things I can get involved in whilst here

What students say about environmental-science

My university experience had its highs and lows. The best part was the supportive academic environment, with passionate lecturers and plenty of resources like well-equipped libraries and study spaces. The vibrant campus life, with diverse clubs and events, made it a great place to meet people and grow personally. However, there were some downsides, like the high cost of living and occasional administrative delays, which could be frustrating. Improving affordability and streamlining student support services would make the experience even better overall.

Lecturers are interesting and passionate, classrooms are comfortable and have everything you need, and there are lots of nice places to study and hang out on site. Improvements would include lowering the prices in the cafes and shop as students are generally on a tight budget. Also the sports teams memberships are very expensive. Finally, more cozy spaces could be added, for example comfy sofas in quiet areas.

Student support services and the staff are always helpful and welcoming. The sports culture is great. I think the general atmosphere and events at the student union could be improved. The cafes are nice places to study and socialise and the food is delicious.

University of Westminster

What students say about environmental-science

I have access to pretty much anything I need in terms of equipment or facilities on campus. The campus itself is quite far for me but that's just unlucky, my main problems with the location can't be fixed by the university itself. It would be nice if there were cafes, stores or restaurants closer to the campus as the stores within campus are quite overpriced. There are technically two train lines you're able to take to get there but I haven't known anyone to ever take Jubilee probably due to the longer travel time and walk from station to campus. And having one line as an option to get to the campus can feel a little stressful sometimes.

My experience so far has been great. The best parts are being able to come onto campus and access any resources I may need- everyone is happy to help. Support is always there when needed even from when I’m at home. I haven’t really found any bad aspects. All in all, this is a great place to study and would probably recommend to anyone who’s looking to start University. They have good food!

The location is fantastic. Plymouth is a beautiful city with decent nightlife and you can easily get on a train or a cheap bus and travel in any direction and enjoy the most beautiful coast and countryside. The main campus is nice, albeit mostly grey concrete with some ugly modern art thrown in. There isn't as much greenery as other universities and some of the facilities aren't great but the good ones are really modern, really colourful and very comfortable. The lecturers are nice people and some of their classes are really interesting and involving. The Student Union organises all sorts of events celebrating different cultures and in the bar there are drinks for a reasonable price, themed discos and a pub quiz every Sunday, all very enjoyable. There are lots of sports clubs and different societies to join and they're generally very welcoming.

Studying environmental science

Environmental science combines parts of different subject areas, like biology, physics, geography, ecology, and more. During a degree in environmental science, you’ll learn about the natural world and how humans are impacting the environment. You’ll therefore look at topics like climate change, pollution levels, sustainability and conservation, while learning in classroom settings as well as in the field and lab. Preserving nature and the environment has become one of the world’s leading priorities in recent times and the surrounding issues are likely to stay in the public eye for decades to come. Therefore, there’s never been a better time to get into environmental science and studying the subject at uni will give you the skills and knowledge needed to pursue several relevant career paths in areas like environmental engineering, environmental education, preservation, conservation and marine biology.
