What students say about translation

My university experience had its highs and lows. The best part was the supportive academic environment, with passionate lecturers and plenty of resources like well-equipped libraries and study spaces. The vibrant campus life, with diverse clubs and events, made it a great place to meet people and grow personally. However, there were some downsides, like the high cost of living and occasional administrative delays, which could be frustrating. Improving affordability and streamlining student support services would make the experience even better overall.

What students say about translation

The course curriculum is designed well to lay the foundations of various subjects in 1st sem, and we apply those learnings during our assignments and in the 2nd sem. It is more practical learning with hands-on approach on group projects and industry collaborations in the 2nd sem. The staffs are brilliant and incredibly supportive. There are lots of facilities and societies for extra curriculars. The university is situated near the city centre and so it is in a very good location. People in the town are very kind. Overall, I am having a great experience in the university.

Swansea is a really fine place to study. The campus is absolutely stunning, right by the sea, and it feels like you're constantly surrounded by nature. The lecturers are generally good, and I've liked my courses so far. However, the weather can be a bit grim sometimes! But overall, I've am having a fantastic time at Swansea.

What students say about translation

WIFI is absolutely awful and there are many dead zones around campus. How can a top-level engineering university provide such poor internet connection, especially when all of our assignments are internet based and due online? I am constantly searching for places around campus with any useable connection and the VPN speeds when you're off campus are just unusable. It's the year 2024. How have we not figured this out yet? It's absolutely unaccusable. You have the money to build an entire new campus, but can't fix the internet at your main campus? Awful.

What students say about translation

The university needs to improve on student housing and accommodation as this part leaves international students in distress and affects their settling in. Greater emphasis in planning ahead and dissemination of information via student email and moodle on time so students can be informed on time of events, lectures or certain expectations they need to meet. I also suggest they create a platform or initiate a forum where students like student nurses actively participate and engage in RCN and professional programmes for developmental and career growth. Create more flexible and part time job opportunities for students as this reduces financial stress and fosters relationships between students and university staff

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.

What students say about translation

The best part of the university is the good environment and all facilities available. But there is something that is missing according to me is that there the university should focus on conducting some action in which students can be encouraged to take part and use all those resources available to them like gym, playing activities and all. On other hand there should be places where the one who wants to make new friends should go and meet others like minded people and others as well. Well although university is encouraging this but still as we all know it is kind of difficult when meeting unknown people and talking because everyone is having thier own state of mind and all. But I think it is the important thing at a university because all we remember at the end is the friends and other memories that we make at our school and colleges.
