I enjoyed the eastbourne campus originally as it was convenient but the train station is right at the bottom of the falmer so it is easy to get too. Lots of seated areas and the falmer campus is for sport and health sciences and teaching courses so all in similar mindsets

An excellent campus that feels modern and offers lots of useful facilities. It's also very well connected by being right next to Falmer train station, and therefore offers a great student life by being so close to central Brighton. Staff and lecturers are all incredibly friendly and make themselves approachable. Only criticism is that many of the lectures are unnecessarily long. 3 hours per lecture is very challenging for anyone to sit through or fully process, especially when the lectures themselves feel designed to last 1-2 hours. It drags and is an ineffective use of everyone's time. Give nursing students more practical lessons, especially as most of the practical training rooms that go unused every day. Anyways, good uni.

As a Neurodiverse Auhd I had to access a fair amount of support and from this point of view it was brilliant. Our voice are heard and things have improved from year to year.

There is so much support for students, and I have really appreciated being able to have options and resources to support that will and has enhanced my experience at Uni. The staff are all very kind and helpful, with great insight into their field, which makes me more excited to take on my future career aspirations. In addition, my campus isn't the main campus, and so sometimes it does feel as if it is a little forgotten in comparison to the main one. There is also a big issue with the seagulls, where it has caused people to be scared to go outside with fear of getting attacked by these birds. One part of my campus that I love is that it's surrounded by lots of green spaces, but we cannot enjoy time outside due to the impact the seagulls have. It's a lot mentally to be inside all day with lectures and such, and so I would love if there were some interventions, so that the outside spaces can be used and enjoyed.

The university has great facilities and has a bus link into Brighton for those staying on campus. It's in a quiet area meaning that studies can be completed with little to no disturbance. The uni could be improved by making the student union better by maybe opening a student nightclub as part of the union or by allowing the student bars to be open later to encourage communication between students. The university could also Improve communications with students by making them aware of lesson changes or cancellations before they are meant to occur.

Great location, easy to get to the main city. Easy train and 24hour buses. However will have to travel for shops for groceries. Would prefer an on campus shop.

University of Brighton embodies diversity and inclusivity by offering a wide range of support services for various different queries. Always reassuring students, staff, prospective students and more that there are no questions/concerns that are too little or too small, they will always try their very best to accommodate us and our needs. Subsequently, when the university are planning activities or student / staff plans, they always try involve the individual as much as possible in the process in order to listen to and adhere to their views, voices and opinions on a multitude of subject manners. Therefore incorporating our views on staff / student plans, activities; and improvement plans to better tailor their services to their service-users :) However, the university can improve upon staffing resources, as there are constant changes to student and staff tables that disrupt their personal lives. They can improve this issue, by recruiting more staff and potentially involving students in some of the lesser responsibilities to ease staff workload :)

All in all three uni is nice and the teacher's are some what informative. However in terms of communication the teacher's aren't as useful. And most lecture halls don't have tables which is annoying for those who want to write notes

best aspects - the best aspects of the uni are that it is very spacious and everyone is very friendly, we all look out for each other. worst aspects - sometimes the communication from lecturers is poor and they have been known to have some organisation issues, for example constantly changing timetable hours
