The best aspects of my university experience are the level of support available to students at Southampton Solent University. Whether you are struggling academically or dealing with personal challenges, there is a strong support system in place to ensure that students feel heard, understood and supported. I feel that Solent recognises that everyone’s circumstances are different and provides support that helps students overcome challenges and reach their full potential. Knowing that support is available, regardless of what you may be going through, makes a real difference to the student experience. One area I would improve is the amount of face-to-face teaching available. Personally, I benefit much more from being physically present at university and being taught directly by lecturers as I find this helps me understand the content and engage with my learning more effectively. At times, the amount of independent work set to complete at home can feel overwhelming, particularly for students who learn better through in-person teaching and structured guidance. I believe that providing more opportunities for face-to-face learning alongside independent study would benefit students with different learning needs and help them feel more confident and supported in their studies.

The best aspects of my course are the subject itself and how it allows me to develop my understanding of criminal investigation and the psychology behind crime. I enjoy learning about real-world issues and how the knowledge gained can be applied to future career opportunities. I also value the support and guidance available from lecturers, particularly when I need help understanding assignments or navigating challenges with my studies. One aspect I would improve is the balance between face-to-face teaching and independent learning. Personally, I learn best when I am physically in the classroom, being taught directly by lecturers and having the opportunity to ask questions and discuss topics in more detail. At times, the amount of independent work expected outside of taught sessions can feel overwhelming, particularly when additional guidance would be beneficial. I would appreciate more consistent face-to-face contact hours and structured teaching, as I believe this would help me engage more confidently with the course content, manage my workload and get the most out of my learning experience.
