What students say about film-studies

I have not had any worse experience at UWE rather, it has been a fantastic journey so far since i started my MSC program in January. The environment is conducive for studying and there are up to date facilities to use. I believe there will be room for improvement in some places but i am not sure yet as i just started my program in January and still exploring but so far so good, it has been a fantastic journey and i look forward to many more memories at the Uni...

What students say about film-studies

Great university located in a beautiful coastal town. The staff are kind and supportive, and there to help students in times of need. The SU organises events which support students, like the free pantry on Mondays, where those of us who are struggling due to cost of living can take food for free . Additionally, there are many facilities, like the printing room and the MAC suite, which students can use to help them with their course work material. Overall a lovely place filled with amazing people, but awful prices. The campus art shop, while handy, has high prices and the canteen food is extremely pricey too. They also do not accept any cash, which can be a hassle.

What students say about film-studies

The facilities are amazing and the staff are extremely helpful. The building itself is really nice and doesn’t feel overwhelming. The only negative thing I would have to say is that unlike other universities I feel like the opportunities to do clubs outside of the institution are limited so if you are trying to make friends outside of your course it can be a bit difficult. However everything else is amazing. The food in the cafeteria is affordable and gets rotated every week so there is always something different and material cost aren’t to bad, in my opinion I feel they could be a bit cheaper however if you can budget properly then it isn’t to bad I just think that every student should be allowed an allowance given by the institution so they can afford materials. Overall my experience at the university so far has been amazing and I have learnt and refined a lot of my skills.

Plymouth Marjon University is very good for student support. The lectures all make an effort to get to know their students and offer support where they can. There is not much within walking distance of the university however the SU is a great place to sit drink and hangout with friends.

The best aspects break down two points. The first thing is the harmonic settings between natural and artificial aspect. The second thing is warm-hearted help from the Exeter Guild assistants. The trouble from me will be improved by them with warmed mentality. The worst aspect is about purchasing some useful electronic tools, such as UK phone recharger plug. It was somewhat doable for me to find phone recharger cables in the Uni market, yet not the plug. For international students who have not used the UK plug in their countries may get trouble in use the recharging service in the University.

Not always the most supportive and clear with assignments that are due and not always as understanding something doesn’t go to plan. The vet school in Langford cafeteria is quite limited and a lot more expensive than the main campus There is also limited areas to eat and relax compared to the main campus The content is not well spaced out on blackboard you often have to go into multiple folders to find specific work

What students say about film-studies

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.
