What students say about modern-languages

Hello people, Firstly, the top notch part of the university is you can be yourself completely irrespective of any religion or background you coming from. Secondly, the first day is always scary and weird but the Student service and the students their was very helpful in enrolment to all the query's. Thirdly, being a food blogger i always hog onto the best hygienic food which the university have so many options to provide. Fourthly, the beauty of the lake , surrounding is so surreal we just forget that it's a university. As you know every good side have a bad side too . Although so many people keep saying not to form racism groups but yet it's been seen. Also Their is not much interaction of all the student's in class which gets at a way worst. It would be good if you have some plays or fun interaction among the class so that everyone opens up with each other. Thank you and happy to join HWU .

What students say about modern-languages

I adore the campus and I am proud to say that I have studied at Aberdeen. The support services are excellent and lecturers are generally excellent. However, there is not a lot going on round about the uni and transport links are not great in Aberdeen. The students union leaves a lot to be desired.

Great place to study; staff is awesome and courses are engaging. As for improvement, better health services, especially for mental health. Some of the underlying things are not what they seem: i.e. lecturers have to strike every semester just to get paid and the school can be too focused on its reputation to see the individual and their needs.

What students say about modern-languages

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.
