What students say about fashion-design

The University Location is great for those who aren't fussed about city life as it is in a quiet location. I found the environment and facilities great throughout the years. The mental health team could be better, the SU can be challenging to get appointments with and the wellbeing team can be unprofessional which I didn't expect especially now there is a Mental Health Charter Award. Accessibility have been amazing though if I ever have an issues or need help with DSA related issues.

I think that the uni needs more availability for booking tutorials and things. I think we should be able to sell our art in the uni reception too. I think the uni is great in regards to student support

What students say about fashion-design

I think what I’d probably like about University of the West of England is that it feels really practical and career-focused, especially for biomedical science. The labs and facilities seem modern, and there are good opportunities connected to hospitals and the pharmaceutical field around Bristol. I’d also probably like how diverse the university is because it makes it easier to meet different people and settle in as an international student. One thing I might not like s much is that sometimes the transport around Bristol can be tiring or expensive, especially when commuting between places.

What students say about fashion-design

As a final year student, reflecting I can confidently say this course has been a great place to study and grow both professionally and personally. I love the course and I have made some of my closest friends here in Bournemouth, which has created a supportive and collaborative environment throughout my time studying. The teaching staff are highly knowledgeable and have had so much experience in the industry to share, they are approachable and genuinely invested in our toolkit. One of the strongest aspects of the course is the opportunity to collaborate with the Bournemouth Film School. This has been an invaluable experience, allowing me to work on graduate films, understand professional screen practice, and begin building industry connections before graduating. Overall, this course has been an extremely positive and formative experience, and I would highly recommend it to any student looking to develop their craft! Go for it!

What students say about fashion-design

The campus is absolutely gorgeous! A wonderful mix of old and new, castles and modern buildings. Reserving rooms encourages students to get out of their rooms and study anywhere on campus, from the top of the castle tower, to the communal "pods" at Commons. The Student Union building has a bar and a small shop, and activities going on almost every day. Karaoke every other Saturday is one of my favourites. Close enough to the city of Bath for easy access, while still having the feeling of a university town. Lots of student discounts and student bars/clubs in town, as the University of Bath is also nearby. Interesting classes, lovely lecturers and guest lecturers, and proper assessments. Few, if not none, tests, allowing for those who do not thrive with simple memorization to show off how they learn. The diversity of students encourages the broadening of your own world view. A wide range of courses, allowing for study into incredibly specific topics. The main issue with the university is the wait time for wellbeing appointments, as it can take up to four months to even get a foot in the door. This means that if you do need help, it is very difficult to achieve. Also, while it isn't the university's fault, it is important to know that the First Bus system is not very reliable, so if you have a job in town, it is quite nerve-wracking.
