Social Studies degrees in Southern England

I have enjoyed my study here at Richmond. The other reviews listed here are talking about the old campus which I didn't experience, but now the school has moved to Chiswick Business Park which is very modern and clean. The school is in one building which is easy to navigate, however its pretty small and sometimes its hard to find study spaces on busy days. The Fashion teachers are very credible and knowledgable as many of them also teach at London College of Fashion and the University of the Arts London. I can't speak on other majors, but all of my fashion teachers were lovely and easy to get in touch with about fashion internships around London. The student accommodation offered was great, the only con was that it was far from campus, but in terms of London life it was a good location to get around the city.

Best: well-rounded, educated lecturers that are enthusiastic about contributing to our learning; lots of societies providing opportunities Worst: assessors for written assignments and PBL tutors tend to not give a level playing field for marking/educating - we don't get taught exactly the same things as the rest of our cohort, it is tutor dependent (PBL, clinical skills, etc)

Love the proximity to the sea. The new health and wellbeing hub is amazing with great facilities. Student life and involvement could be improved but location makes it hard as slightly out of city centre.

Generally a great collection of faculty and always researching for ways to be more sustainable and inclusive. could be better in providing resources for students in healthcare degrees as career development opportunities are all surrounding corporate career

I enjoyed the course and it’s structure. I believe, that it set me up well for my research project and gave me the skills that employers are looking for. The worse aspect was the lack of time for activities outside of studying. Lectures and assignments took up most of the day and evening, especially during coursework and exam season.

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.
