What students say about medical-chemistry

There are excellent lecturers and student support services (particularly academic skills). The campus has a good feel and has a lot of outdoor seating which will be nice when the weather is warm. Lecture rooms are good but the seats are very uncomfortable. There is little impact from the students' union, for example there was no 'refreshers fayre' for January intake students, which also impacts the student life score.

The best one was when I arrived for the first time at university, where the university staff at the reception desk in Dalton building were very friendly and helped me find the lecture theatre. I don’t have a bad one.

Great place for the atmosphere alone, the staff are all really motivated to help and make sure you get the best of your time in university, and their gender neutral facilities make it easy for me as a trans student to remain comfortable while studying here. Lectures are generally well communicated, but the campus and SU emails sometimes get defaulted to spam, making it difficult to really keep posted on what goes on in the context of social events.

What students say about medical-chemistry

best - how active the SU is, though this is still not as good as it could be. General student support services are incredible. The academic staff that I have come into contact with are amazing and clearly care so much about their students - a complete contrast to university management who clearly could not care less about students, their welfare and their educational experience worst - university cutbacks - all of the cuts are financially unnecessary and are hollowing out the university, making students' experience worse and removing so many of the courses, staff and opportunities that make the university world renowned. Accessibility is also vastly varied between departments, and as a disabled politics student I haven't felt very supported by the departments processes etc despite the incredible academics who go above and beyond to ensure I am getting the most out of my education

Best part - helpful and loving staff. no discrimination, nice people all around! Worst aspects - The campus is TOO spread out, and back to back lectures are often arranged in buildings too far apart :(
