Biological Sciences - BSc (Hons)

Best aspects is the commitment of the careers team and the lab facilities. The location is great being just a 30 minute walk into town and right be the train station. What could be improved- the library facilities are a bit old, often the toilets/ water fountains are out of order. Not having seminars with lecturers and sometimes the timing of different deadlines causes unecessary stress

I've seen many universities in America, but there's a reason I choose Brighton. I have been pleasantly surprised by the school since attending. The staff says they're there to help and most of them mean it. The Student Union does some great things and even has their own student shop and coffee with great prices!

Great guidance and support in transitioning into independent life and study. There could be better slides in some lectures, sometimes they’re just a bunch of pictures.

Brighton is a very diverse and welcoming uni. Lecturers are easy to talk to and the university has good facility. Communication is not always great and could be improved

Enjoying my time here. Brighton is a great place with both city and country side. University is great fun especially with the new improved facilities of the gym and student bar. The university campus, student prices and bike areas could be improved.

The UoB is a great place to study, Brighton is a lovely city and it’s got the advantages of great transport links as well as the beach! It has great support for the students studying. I think it could be improved visually, i don’t think that the buildings/campuses are very pretty and some of the buildings and lecture theatres seem quite outdated visually.

The location is in the centre between all necessary places, including shops, gym and social spaces. It makes it the best campus to be on. Plus, the entertainment is only a 5 - 10 minute walk. Majority of the buildings are up kept constantly, which gives a comforting feeling making it feel like home away from home. It is never a chore to be on campus. However, one building, which has been here for years, is very run down and needs to have a full renovation as the rooms are too small, not enough desk space as it is the rows of seating with just a 30 cm depth desk.
