Film Special Effects degrees in Northern England

University of Hull has a beautiful and serene environment suitable for learning and even relaxing. The lecturers are very warm and receptive. Things that could be improved: student union (I don’t really see what they do, I’m sorry); the university should make arrangements with more landlords in order to make students living easier; Timetable should be more flexible (we asked for a change in my department but nothing was done)

Best experience is the support in this university is remarkable. Worst experience is last minute notices sometimes with events been cancelled or things that are happening on the day so I can plan ahead.

The staff and students around the campus are always so welcoming and friendly. It really makes me enjoy where I’m studying. I think something that could be improved is the university’s response to student based issues.

The people are lovely. And if you ever have issues with someone the uni is quick to act. Uni at night feels safer with all the lights. Good food. Lots of clubs to join what are fun. Building close to early.

For me personally, I love the fact that the students are few because it makes it easier for every student to approach a tutor and get feedback on how they are doing and how they can improve. Tutors are very calm and supportive when it comes to teaching students. If anything can be improved maybe their hearing system during January.

Leeds Arts Univerity is small in size, meaning there are few noteworthy Student Unions in comparison to UoL, but does feel welcoming and safe. The university's student support is freindly and helpful from what I experienced; LAU is a very inclusive organisation and does strive to support students with a variety of services available. The campus is a little dull looking, with few spaces looking vibrant in contrast to the many white/grey hallways. I was able to use the Film/Photography course's cameras as a Music student, however the university's facilities seem somewhat limited as a whole, with spaces and equipment scarce close to submission time.

The university needs to improve on student housing and accommodation as this part leaves international students in distress and affects their settling in. Greater emphasis in planning ahead and dissemination of information via student email and moodle on time so students can be informed on time of events, lectures or certain expectations they need to meet. I also suggest they create a platform or initiate a forum where students like student nurses actively participate and engage in RCN and professional programmes for developmental and career growth. Create more flexible and part time job opportunities for students as this reduces financial stress and fosters relationships between students and university staff

College has offered great support over the last year during COVID, I have still managed to be able to do my work and achieve the grades I wanted. College has kept clean and offered many hand sanitizer stations. College is offering various online catch up sessions and opportunity sessions.
