What students say about social-work

The lecturers are really approachable and want you to succeed. It feels really inclusive and diversity is appreciated. Being so close to Manchester there's lots going on and good transport links. The only real criticism I have is the use of online lectures, how ever much they try, they aren't as condusive to learning as in person lectures are especially if you have difficulties with concentration. I understand that universities are trying to find ways to cut costs but I feel that this detracts from the whole student experience both academically and socially.

What students say about social-work

Best part of the uni are the facilities provided by uni such as mosque for Muslim prayers. Student Ambassadors scheme help students to gain some extra earning whilst studying. The careers team is always ready to provide future insight. Worst part include the thinking and sheikh judged by other students based on many differences.

What students say about social-work

The course I am on, the staff are very supportive, very helpful and knowledgeable. The uni itself is a little outdated, not enough places to sit at breaktimes, and not enough facilities such as kettles and microwaves. Library is good and staff are very helpful
