The attendance system is not working properly; sometimes it captures the attendance, but it does not show in the History Section of the App. There is no recording of workshop classes, it should be considered.

I love the University and also the teaching. The University of Surrey is a great place to study due to its strong academic reputation, supportive learning environment, and excellent facilities. The campus is well-maintained, the library resources are very helpful, and the emphasis on employability and placements is particularly valuable. The diverse student community also creates a welcoming atmosphere. To improve, the university could increase study spaces during peak periods, enhance administrative responsiveness, and consider more affordable food and accommodation options for students.

Facilities availability are good but always booked so in case of emergency need to wait more sometimes without appointment also something possible by a small call or 5 min talk.

I am very happy to be studying at the University of Surrey. The campus is beautiful, peaceful, and well-maintained. The facilities like the library, laboratories, and study spaces are excellent and very helpful for students. The professors are knowledgeable, supportive, and always ready to guide students. The teaching quality is very good, especially with practical and industry-focused learning. Guildford is a safe and lovely town, and the university has a friendly and welcoming environment. There are many societies and events where students can meet new people and enjoy campus life. Overall, I am having a great experience at the University of Surrey and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality education in the UK.

I am not satisfied with the teaching staff for the Advanced Pharmaceutical Sciences module because we mostly rely on self-study. In class, we do not gain much; the teaching provides only about 20% benefit, while 80% of the learning we do ourselves at home. In my opinion, it would be better if attendance counted for only 20%, and the remaining 80% could be online or self-study, because students’ time is being wasted by attending these classes.
