Bournemouth University

The professors are very supportive and always there to help outside lecture hours. Very accesible and available space to work always.

I have learned a lot of new things and have had great support since I started studying. A bit more support and feedback coming from the teachers could be more appreciated. The uni has a lot of resources for research and cool activities and clubs to join.

Everyone is so bubbly and supportive! many new friends have been made through all of the societies and events as well as the course itself. The facilities are also epic

Its a great place to study especially the facilities! I study animation, the computers are amazing. For second year however I beleive the work load is way too much. This is a new course and I understand that itll probably be changed for the new students coming in next year. For one assignment its about 4 months of work shoved into one assignment that you have about 3 months to do ontop of other assignments which is very hard to manage. The teaching is great, however there is some lack of communication between lecturers especially when it comes to assignments! Though overall my experience has been great. Ive made lots of new friends and potential friends for life. The environment around accomodation is great, but not so great at night time so I try to avoid going out at the time of day, I do sometimes feel unsafe walking to ASDA for example. The campus is amazing and I love it, especially poole gateway building! The environment is nice and calm. However I beleive there should be more computers. We have to render images and big projects and when its the end of the month when deadlines are edging near, all computers are taken usually and its very hard to render, its either you stay the whole night and render or not render at all. Apart from that, my experience at Bournemouth Uni has been great apart from some miscommunication, not enough knowledge given in lectures as its usually 'do your own thing' and read over or watch over videos in your own time, and outside of uni where the location of the accomodation feels quite unsafe at night especially in the town centre. I love BU and the amazing people I have made friends with. Its a great uni!

The study environment is very well I love the fact that university is open 24/7 And i can work on my projects according to my convenience. The student support we have in the university is amazing And the careersBu support and speaker sessions helps alot!
