French/Theatre Studies - MA (Hons)

University of Glasgow

the institution does a very good job at giving their students a place to feel comfortable to study and feel heard. the only complaint i have is that access for help they give. it’s a lot more difficult then they make it seem.

Glasgow is such a great city for young people with loads going on and lots to do. The University of Glasgow is in such an amazing location with a beautiful campus that really sets it apart from other universities. I like that is is in the West End of the city, it is almost like a wee community of just uni students. Being part of the Glasgow Student Dance Company has been the highlight of my time at university and I know that this is just one of many fantastic societies at Glasgow University. I have had such supportive staff members at university who have gone above and beyond to help me and answer my questions. The Glasgow Uni Union is great 90% of the time but myself and some of my friends have had issues with the way in which people behave on nights out at the union sometimes. Particularly on Wednesdays when sports teams are in the union, it is overcrowded and people are really rude. I have been harassed by boys on the Rugby team before and I think the University should be dealing with these issues more seriously.

The campus is very beautiful! There are so many different options for food nearby, which is handy. The lecturers in the Theatre Studies department are so so friendly and helpful; they really care about their students. Something that could be improved with the university is the availability of study spaces. They are always so busy. It is quite hard to find a space to sit in buildings like the library and JMS at peak times, especially during assignment season. This can be frustrating.

Divest, pay your staff more, support the ucu strikes, do more to prevent racism and gbv, do something about the terrible support for student mental health

It has been great. The university Is very supportive and it’s very easy to get involved. I believe that most member of staff are very approachable and easy to talk to
