Meteorology and Climate - BSc (Hons)

University of Reading

Good facilities, motivating lecturers, fun location. Better transportation in and out, better directions for getting around.

It's rare to find a uni where so much of the student experience is almost perfect, that's why Reading gets 5 stars from me. There are many great facilities, but a couple of older buildings really need renovation. The campus is amazing for mental health, with lots of big trees and open green spaces. The support has been quite good, at least within my department, and the uni has excellent transport links while still being walkable distances from any services you might need for daily life. Student life has been good, excluding the pandemic. The students' union itself is a bit awkward and there are management problems, but the union building is a great place to come to during lunch and I enjoy participating in the student union societies.

Our majors are ranked in the top three in the world, and many other majors are ranked very high. It's only because there are no medical schools that the ranking is low, and that doesn't feel fair at all!
