Plymouth Uni is a brilliant place to study as someone who loves the surrounding areas. The facilities on campus are adequate and the student union is effective as entertainment in the evenings as well as for support surrounding various topics such as study, finance and employment.

University of Plymouth campus is located in the heart of the city centre making it perfectly accessible, with lots of student accommodation options surrounding it. The SU is great for social events, meals, drinks and more. I have been able to easily access student counselling through student support services during a personal difficult time. To improve, I think expanding the SU space and opening more rooms in the club would be beneficial as it often gets super crowded and hot in there.

I love the university - it’s in a scenic city and there’s always something for the students to get involved with and the staff in my school (the School of Biomedical Sciences) are always willing to help and support you. Sometimes study areas can get very crowded during the day, so it’s difficult to find a quiet place to learn, but the university is expanding and creating more spaces, so this should be resolved. Other than that, it’s a great uni.

in general very good. student feedback are always acted upon to enhance student experience and learning. lots of student support available. only drawback is when you have lecturers leaving to join work somewhere else - this leaves a bit of gap, though new lecturers will take over the pattern that one gets used to is disturbed. in my experience that has been a negative. hence 4 stars instead of 5.
