General Studies degrees

The best is the period supplements and there’s so many coffees shops around the school. However, I gonna say that somehow finding books in library could be a challenge since some labels are not that clear

I simply like everything about my univ. They are structured, well organized, people seems nice. It's a new experience for me and so far so good as I just recently started and have not got any bad aspect yet.

I love the scenery which is just by the River Thames. The accommodation is comfortable and peaceful. Worst experience is that students are made to search Placement opportunities themselves which can be quite exhausting.

Having come to this campus, the atmosphere and pure friendliness of the staff is unmatched. being a mature student, i had worries and doubts about fitting in and falling behind, however, the uni of Sussex has supported and welcomed me in every way possible. the facilities provided are unmatched, with a variety of places to help give the best uni experience and education. and the societies at this school are so versatile! the only potential critic i have is having a cheaper option for shopping on site, but that's not much in contrast to what i and many others have been given :)

My overall experience was very positive. the lecturers was supportive, and the MBA programme was valuable for my professional development. More flexibility with assignment deadlines would be appreciated

Most of the lecturers are great and very talented. But I would say the first year is very intense in terms of pace and the amount of content for each lecture so a little overwhelming. There’s a large amount of neuroscience and stats. Feedback can be a bit vague. There are societies and sport clubs. I tried a few societies but found them cliquey but others like them. Can’t comment on SUbas I’m a commuter and never been. The location of the uni is pretty isolated and boring. I’m a commuter but would feel bored living in Egham. It just feels like a village and is a 2 mile round walk. The uni is next to an A road and the walk up the hill is dodgy (narrow path). The people here tend to be on the posh side. I do think the campus and library is pretty, there’s a good library and teaching quality is good.

Great social life, good options for student societies, a lot of student support. A lot of professionals teaching on the course and it gave me exactly what I wanted for my career progression into genetics

It’s a great place to study as the campus is located in the city centre so it’s very accessible for shopping , eating out , parties etc and going from campus to campus is straightforward . However , the campus can get overcrowded sometimes

A community of some of the most interesting and intelligent people I know! The student body is small and eclectic, the international faculty is refreshingly passionate about teaching, and the professional network reaches to every domain I'm aware of to date. I had an incredible experience being a student here and it's set up me for an exciting, varied career. I started as part of the founding cohort in 2022. 65 students, 11 faculty members in a cool building in East London. We were the course guinea pigs which meant we got all of the benefits of 1:1 time with incredible professors who have studied, researched and taught at the top universities, but we also experienced niggles with brand new modules and the learning resources like the lack of a library or quiet space to work. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my degree. It enabled me to explore my existing interests and cultivated many more such as impact investing and surveillance capitalism which I'm confident no other degree could have done for me. This degree, like most others is exactly what you make of it and how much effort you put in. But I would say here, if you chose to do that you'll be 10x rewarded. The LIS network is incredible. They have connections across national government, NGOs, top consulting, banking and real estate firms, investors, entrepreneurs and as part of a small student cohort and graduate, you have unique access and support.
