Business and Management (Data Analytics & Digital Business) - BSc (Hons)

University of Reading

Campus is really pretty and there's plenty of different spaces to visit there. Careers team (Henley business) is really unhelpful and not supportive for placement search (I was originally supposed to do a placement but couldn't get anywhere despite applying all throughout second year) the meetings I had gave vague advice and made me feel like a failure - really demoralising. I'm in my final year now and have also received little support for graduate jobs

The best part of my uni experience is the care they are putting in supporting the students. The quality of study is also impeccable, the course is innovative, the teachers are heavily involved and the infrastructure we have at our disposable is very high tech. I'd say the worst aspect of my uni experience is maybe accommodation, my student's hall isn't that great. I don't mind though because the campus is so well equipped I end up spending most of my days on campus.

It has a great location and campus, as well as a highly reputable business school with good professors. The student experience, however, could be more varied and enjoyable if more unique activities were available to give a greater chance of meeting new like-minded friends. The catering system also needs some work.

I knew I wanted to come to Reading when I first came at summer to visit a friend of mine. I loved that I’d be having lectures in many different building and that I would explore the campus as I was attending different lectures and seminars, and that the contacts I’d get would be amazing, especially to get me started in a my business career. At the very start of this year, I was receiving tens of emails about opportunities out there for me to apply for and loads of ways to start building my CV. I knew I would choose to stay in Reading to study at the Henley campus, as I couldn’t imagine choosing any other university. It’s incredible having lectures overlooking the beautiful campus, and living in the St George's student accommodation. The only downside to living next to the University, is the travel to city where most of the shops etc are located at, that can be easily solved by either taking a bus or a bike, or walking downhill for 15 minutes. The accomodation is next to the university and I have to walk 7 minutes to get to my classes. I do not have to pay any traveling costs and It is in a very convenient location !

My studies in university of Reading is perfectly fine. Our tutors are ready to help me when I need that. Territory of the campus is very nice. I really enjoy studies and the process. Staff of the University supports Ukrainian students as much as it’s possible. It’s easy to socialize and to make friends. I live in campus and it’s very comfortable place to stay, rooms are bright and it has everything for convenient living. I’m happy that I study here!
