Theology & Religion degrees

Good elements Location and aesthetic - it's a beautiful campus, and, if you like sports, it's great. Some module lecturers are very supportive, knowledgeable and clear communicators Some good students in cohort who are keen to learn and develop Less-Good Some of the timetabling is poorly planned: Mondays, for example, 0900-1100 then a long break until 1700-1800. Remote access is not available for practical labs - I live around 60 miles from campus and the drive in can be a little tricky

It's great because you do everything when you have time. The coarse tells you how much time you will need and you fit it in around your circumstances. The OU library is available 24 hours a day so always someone to help no matter what the time. The forums always have someone up late or really early! The tutors provide excellent feedback and are quick to respond

Best - All the different stores and restaurants in the SU. - The wide range of societies offered. Not so great - Sometimes in CSL there is a shortage of places to sit which means that during lecture breaks we have to walk to different places.

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.

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.

I am someone who struggled in school and college and was apprehensive to attend university. From the first day at Moorlands, I felt accepted and supported. I was offered one-one support for my learning difficulty and follow up support on essays. The lecturers are accessible and extremely helpful. The lectures were engaging and challenging. I have enjoyed my time at Moorlands and am still shocked that I was able to not only complete the programme but come away with a greater knowledge and understanding of Applied Theology. The placement element of the programme allowed me to gain fantastic experience in the workplace.

The campus at the University of Nottingham is a beautiful place to be able to complete my studies. It has a welcoming and homely feeling. Facilities such as the David Ross Sports Centre and both libraries make it easy for me to complete extra activities such as netball and going to the gym, along with great places to study. Improvements involving the student union could be made, as I found it difficult to find out information about this. However, I couldn’t fault any other aspect of the University.

The atmosphere is quite nice and the campus is very beautiful. I do think as an international student there aren't many opportunities to integrate properly with home students. At times, there's a sense of othering. Maybe providing a more thorough orientation process with international students to ensure they feel include in the SMU community.
