Psychology with Criminology

The University of Law

The teaching is amazing. It’s very one on one which you don’t get at other uni. They also support you very well if you need any support or help with anything.

The best aspect of my online-only psychology degree is convenience and the high quality of the instructors. The programme is well laid out, comprehensive, and the instructors are passionate about what they do. Good on that front for sure and they get a 5-star rating, hands down. The Student Union is organised and supportive so that's a huge plus! The programme is moderately priced for the time reduction to one year and convenience of being entirely online. Unfortunately there are administrative, logistical, and technology hurdles that have yet to be overcome. Additionally as someone studying from North America in the UK a lot of student supports that are not available because I'm outside of the UK. Also there is little proactivity in supporting students that are online: there is an assumption of navigation of support programmes with no orientation if a person starts any time outside of September.

I really enjoy my time at this university. The lecturers are very friendly and treating everybody with kindness and respect, which was not a thing in my previous university. All the facilities are easy to access and there's a lot of support for students. I definitely recommend studying here.

The classes are smaller than larger unis (which I find more interactive than big lectures) and there are tons of resources available to help with my studies. The only issue I have is that the lecturers kept changing.

I really like study area on the top floor as it gives you a chance to have a break and get a coffee. Whilst still providing you space to do work with friends. The study areas are always spotless so it’s a nice environment to work in and helps your mind to focus. To improve there could be more tables to do your work on as most of the seating is sofas.
