What students say about human-biology

I come from Madagascar, an island located in the Southern African region in the Indian Ocean. In my country, English is the third language, with French as the second, and Malagasy as our local official language. Additionally, Madagascar is one of the most underdeveloped countries in the world. I earned my Master's degree in Theology from our national theological faculty before pursuing a second Master's level course at the Cambridge Centre for Christianity Worldwide (CCCW). I am deeply grateful and honored to have been admitted here, and I extend my thanks to the CCCW Board for this opportunity. My journey at CCCW has been marked by several meaningful experiences: Despite my background, I have never felt excluded. I am welcomed as part of the community, and my classmates are genuinely understanding and supportive. English proficiency is required for students from countries where English is not the first language. I am deeply thankful to my professors and classmates for their patience, as they recognize both my efforts and my progress in achieving academic-level English. I have never felt judged, and I am committed to improving daily. Lastly, the support, guidance, and attention from the professors have been invaluable. I truly admire their dedication and the advice they offer as they assist us throughout our studies.

Great buildings and location with great transport links to major cities. Being taught by people who are the best in that field and being able to contribute to their research at an early time in your studies. The tutorial system with very few people in classes making learning much more interactive.

What students say about human-biology

Durham is a beautiful city and university with great social opportunities. The traditions are very strong at this school. It feels today like how Oxford and Cambridge were twenty years ago. Sometimes administration can be a challenge, many people have difficulty in knowing how to pay tuition and the university is slow to respond to emails. Also, there are far too many international students and just students in general. The university’s expansion plans are causing a drop in the school’s national and international rankings and causing the university to be in danger of losing its character.

I love the city in general. The University's libraries are good. with proper facilities that I can use, such as discussion rooms, computers, printers, even 3D printer! Some buildings look so old but in positive ways, make them look classic and cultured. However, in my own experience, some classrooms are a little bit aged. i mean, like some chairs are feel old, they are sometimes kind of wobbly, and some of them do not have enough leg room. Main library can be crowded when exam days come, but I think that is something that can not be avoided. i think it is good to add some space for classrooms or some like study hubs.

Campus is close to such beautiful places and countryside towns such as matlock so there are plenty of opportunities to get outdoors and enjoy the countryside scenery. Campus is also located in the city centre so lots of things to do, places to shop and also clubbing! Plenty of societies and social opportunities provided so easy to make friends and meet new people. Only critique is student halls and accommodation could do with a refurb and update however private accommodations in derby are a good alternative.

The location in central London not far from where the UKs decisions are made is amazing. The library has most of the resources I need and if you can’t find something the library staff will happily try and make it available. The thing where the uni lets us down the most is admin.

i love how social it is, that it's all one campus and there is always something going on. I don't think there are enough study spaces (group/social ones in particular), oftentimes it is really difficult to find a space unless you go early in the morning and get one.

Best experience has to be Keele hall it’s beautiful in all seasons to go to especially in summer there’s no other uni that can offer that For nursing the teaching facilities are great theirs no other facilities you would need to study The student union are always their with support so you will never feel on your own Worst probably the night life just wish their was less nights out but better produced maybe that would attract more people Also I have seen the graduations that take place in January and their not as well produced as the summer ones which is a shame makes us feel a little bit under appreciated
