Warwick International Foundation Programme - Computer Science

University of Warwick

My one criticism with the university is that the SU can be a bit of a shambles at times - I'm on the exec team for 2 societies so unfortunately have experience with this - but tbf there are a LOT of societies here, and it's pretty easy to create new ones too. Most campus accommodations are very nice (I've not seen all of them so can't really comment); I was in Westwood last year and would recommend :) The accommodations team are also very very nice :D There are always lots of things happening at the piazza - various markets (I got plants from one of them :D), societies run various stalls sometimes, street food vans (they're amazing) every Wednesday, etc. In general it's very nice here you should come to Warwick it's good :)

Societies: -amazing variety of societies, most feel very open to newcomers and it is fun to have so many events on that you can attend -good support for society exec this year especially, big improvement on last 2 years Clubnights: -decent -kasbah is nearby and a great night out Course: -third year has been very good overall, good teachers, interesting content -neural computing as a module feels offensively easy for a third year module, spending entire lectures on stuff covered in 10 minutes in first year -continued issue of coursework being worth a lot less than the time required to complete it, specifically with compilers, is less the case than last year though (where every module had this issue) -module organisers this year are clearly passionate about the topics they are teaching, and are always happy to answer questions outside of lecture hours

Great gym and sports facilities Great SU and student residence hub Love the Cryfield cinema room Could have more vegan food on campus

Excellent, experienced and professional lecturers. Real quality education. Beautiful nature filled campus. Lots of student activities. Some buildings are a little defaced and vandalised.

Really inclusive community, really good campus, although it can be easy to get lost for new students, better signs or guiding system can be added to improve

Good facilities with many different places to study. Lacking in open spaces, with very industrialised buildings surroundings most of the learning places, with constant business and other works happening around.
