Language Studies degrees in South East England

i love the facilities at this uni, the library and the teaching is great. there are many places for all types of students ,quiet or not, to go and the nightlife in the city is prety decent. it is quite affordable compared to other universitys close by. the societies are fantastic aswell. the university could improve on certain teaching aspects in the first year to ease us into how very independant it all is

Everyone has been extremely welcoming and supportive. There is something for everyone on campus and lots to do an experience. Their downside is lack of signage around campus. The campus is large and some paths take you through bushed areas, which I love, but sometimes hard to know which was to turn.

WIFI is absolutely awful and there are many dead zones around campus. How can a top-level engineering university provide such poor internet connection, especially when all of our assignments are internet based and due online? I am constantly searching for places around campus with any useable connection and the VPN speeds when you're off campus are just unusable. It's the year 2024. How have we not figured this out yet? It's absolutely unaccusable. You have the money to build an entire new campus, but can't fix the internet at your main campus? Awful.

Best - the campus looks quite nice on the most part. And the social life here is good Worst - usually hard to find a place to study in busy weeks. A lot of buildings should be modernised. And new modules/module structures should not be created without student input

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.

Uni of Reading has a really nice campus with plenty of green space and is in a nice area of Reading that is a short walk to town, student housing is also right next to campus so easy to do for second and third year. Has a really nice library thats great for getting work done and Wednesday night union on campus is great. Accommodation on and off campus is very expensive however and in general student life is more expensive here that at other unis.

It’s a nice university in a nice area very convenient. There’s everything around. But can be improved by having more community because it lacks the aspects of like a community getting together having events just to talk not for like education or like stuff just like work you know like be friendly. Have fun. like how other universities of societies like this one society are limited like all universities of society for like everyone a culture and everything and just need something for the younger students to have that university life. Even though it’s a mature university. But it has so much Support and everything that you would need to study so that something is really great about it like there’s so many workshops but more fun things would be nice

I love all the student deals. However, I feel like many of the student activity processes could be streamlined as it seems so overwhelming as a foreigner/first-year. Like, having to book a ticket, but then still waiting in line or an event being overbooked via ticketing that people are dissuaded to come. Then, when the event takes place, the ticket holders don’t even come.
