Sports Management degrees

Best aspects are the smaller class sizes which means more personal attention and connections with lectures and students. The campus is nice especially in summer. However due to being a smaller university there are less resources and lack of enough transport between the campuses

I am pursuing a one-year master's course at Sheffield Hallam University. My academic background is in commerce; I completed a Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com). However, I have decided to transition my career into the IT industry. The IDP team assisted me in exploring various options, and I ultimately chose this program because it is specifically designed for non-computing students who aspire to build their careers in the field of computing. This course includes both theoretical classes and practical lab sessions, which are conducted one day a week. The combination of lectures and hands-on learning provides a balanced approach to understanding key computing concepts and applying them in real-world scenarios. The tutors are incredibly supportive and cooperative, always ready to clarify doubts and provide guidance. Best Experiences at Sheffield Hallam University: 1. Supportive Environment : The university offers excellent resources, such as access to advanced labs and a library with extensive digital and physical resources. 2. Practical Learning: The lab sessions are interactive and help reinforce theoretical knowledge. 3. Cultural Diversity: Interacting with students from different backgrounds has broadened my perspective. 4. Career Support: The career services team assists with CV preparation, interview techniques, and connecting with potential employers. Challenges/Worst Experiences: 1. Adapting to Computing Concepts: Coming from a commerce background, the initial weeks were challenging as I needed to familiarize myself with technical terms and concepts, also i think we need to do hard work in order to compete with existing students who already studied computing in previous studies 2. Weather: Adjusting to the cold and rainy climate in Sheffield was difficult initially. 3. Time Management: Balancing coursework and independent study requires good time management skills, especially with a one-year intensive program. Overall, the experience at Sheffield Hallam has been transformative, equipping me with the knowledge and skills to pursue a successful career in computing.

Southampton Solent University is an overall great place for students to study, offering excellent facilities, supportive staff, and a diverse learning environment. The university provides a practical approach to education, ensuring students gain real-world experience alongside their academic studies. However, student life could be enhanced by offering more social events, parties, and get-togethers. These activities would help students connect, build friendships, and create a stronger sense of community on campus. With a livelier student social scene, Solent University would become an even more enjoyable and well-rounded place to study.

Best Aspects of Studying at the University of Chester: Beautiful Campus and it is friendly and inclusive atmosphere. Staff and students alike are approachable, creating a welcoming environment for learning and personal growth. As for the worst aspects, the acoomodation cost is high.

Support Services are amazing. They go out of their way to support my peers and me. They are a credit to the university. - Lecturers are very supportive, especially with assignments University halls are in desperate need of refurbishing. Harry Law, Bateson and Rees are the main offenders. Generally, the university's estates need investment.

The staff and students around the campus are always so welcoming and friendly. It really makes me enjoy where I’m studying. I think something that could be improved is the university’s response to student based issues.

The staff are incredible, unbelievably understanding and supportive. They want you to succeed and you can really tell. However, Lipman building is constantly broken. The top two floors have been out of service for year and now the entire building is out of commission and not expected to be back until the summer. Surely at this point just demolish the place.
