Youth Work degrees in Wales

We're lacking a lot in terms of music facilities, or facilities available are very old/decrepid. Bangor is a very beautiful area, however ot is a struggle to get around with mobility issues. Everyone here is friendly as we're a small community. It has a cosy, warm vibe.

I had my Msc in Dental Technology at Cardiff Metropolitan University, and I had a great time. The faculty was ever ready to listen and help navigate me in the right direction. The International Students' office were very prompt in responding to emails and issues. Materials required for my practicals were always sent to me in time. This made me choose them again for my PhD. I am in my first year, and I am enjoying the programme. The graduate Staff are always willing to help with any difficulty or challenge. My supervisors are very helpful and showed so much empathy and understanding when I lost my spouse in December 2025. They moved our meetings to accommodate my emotions. There is support for mental health and other issues. I have not had any issues with any of their services or support, hence I cannot give any advice on what should be improved

Best aspects would definitely be the people and the location. By the beach but with safe and lively night life, which in my opinion is important for most undergrad students, also the welsh are lovely and friendly. It depends on the area but overall the city feels extremely safe which was important for me. Some of the buildings on the old campus (singleton) look a bit run-down especially when the sun isn't out so it might be worth them revamping some buildings to make certain parts look less depressing. But again thats only a few, and the walk to campus is lovely especially as theres a massive park/green space right next to campus, with a 2 minute detour taking you right to the beach. Can't say too much on the students' union because it looks good but i havent really engaged with it. They always have some sort of event going on but honestly i havent been to many, so maybe the events could be more engaging so more people including myself would go.

The location is very well, the campus is good, but the toilets is not enough, specially, because we have a lot people inside and for some people need to wash feat to pray, the don't have the place. We need more toilets space.

It’s a great place to study because the academic environment is supportive, the teaching quality is strong, and there are plenty of opportunities to grow through projects, events, and collaboration with classmates. The campus community also makes it easy to feel included and motivated. It could be improved by streamlining administrative processes, offering clearer communication, and reducing unnecessary bureaucracy. More practical learning opportunities and better support during exam periods would also make a big difference.

Good university course with excellent tutors and modules. Most tutors are patient and answer any questions you may have, involving the course. Student feedback is vital and personal tutor sessions and surveys are often held to ensure every student's satisfaction with the course. More trips could definitely be offered as a way to encourage everyone to bond and to help boost motivation however, as there is a lot more offered to the lower level students and students on other courses. The foundation degree for media is definitely worth your tuition money however, as while the work is quite challenging and there's a lot to be completed, a range of things are taught and the tutors cover a lot of different pathways there are in the media industry.

It's a very student orientated city with the university being very integrated in daily life. There are lots of social opportunities with many societies but I think the university should make it easier to learn about how to get involved. Also for my subject I have found it difficult to feel motivated by the teaching staff and I haven't felt compelled to engage as much as I wish I had.
