The overall university environment and the supportive academic staff. The lecturers are knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely willing to help students develop both academically and professionally. One area that could be improved is creating more opportunities for international students to build connections and networks. For example, more networking events, mentoring sessions, or opportunities to learn from previous graduates in the same field would be very valuable

The best part of my university experience has been the supportive and inclusive learning environment. The University of Brighton has approachable lecturers, strong academic resources, and a diverse student community, all within a vibrant city that makes it an enjoyable place to study. The most challenging aspect has been the intensity of some courses, particularly for postgraduate students balancing studies with work and personal commitments. Clearer guidance around assessments and exams, as well as better coordination between teaching and marking, would further improve the student experience.
