Childhood Studies foundation degrees

i love the facilities at this uni, the library and the teaching is great. there are many places for all types of students ,quiet or not, to go and the nightlife in the city is prety decent. it is quite affordable compared to other universitys close by. the societies are fantastic aswell. the university could improve on certain teaching aspects in the first year to ease us into how very independant it all is

Earlier in my degree there was a lot of uncertainty within the forensic cohort especially surrounding lecturer instability. We still see it now with lecturers having to teach modules that are not related to their dedicated area. However, this has not impeded my request for help and support from them but it would be useful to allocate staffing with the school of psychology to their specific area of expertise. From a student welfare perspective…the services are accessible and easy to access. They have helped me tremendously through hard times of student and balancing external family commitments.

One of the best parts of studying at Roehampton University is the friendly and supportive environment. The lecturers explain topics clearly and are always willing to help when students have questions. The campus is peaceful, with good facilities like the library, study rooms, and social spaces, which makes it a comfortable place to learn. I also enjoy meeting classmates from different countries and backgrounds because it helps me learn new ideas and understand different cultures. The teaching style at Roehampton makes learning easier and more enjoyable. Seminars and group activities help me understand the lessons better, and the coursework is practical, helping me connect what I learn to real-life situations. I feel that the university encourages students to think independently and build confidence. Overall, I feel supported in my studies, and this has helped me grow both academically and personally. Even though my experience has been positive, there are some areas that could improve. Sometimes the workload feels heavy, especially when deadlines are close together. Communication about certain tasks or readings can be unclear at times. More career support, part-time job opportunities, and more flexible timetables would also make things easier for students. However, these challenges are common in most universities, and Roehampton still offers a good overall student experience.

The campus is absolutely gorgeous! A wonderful mix of old and new, castles and modern buildings. Reserving rooms encourages students to get out of their rooms and study anywhere on campus, from the top of the castle tower, to the communal "pods" at Commons. The Student Union building has a bar and a small shop, and activities going on almost every day. Karaoke every other Saturday is one of my favourites. Close enough to the city of Bath for easy access, while still having the feeling of a university town. Lots of student discounts and student bars/clubs in town, as the University of Bath is also nearby. Interesting classes, lovely lecturers and guest lecturers, and proper assessments. Few, if not none, tests, allowing for those who do not thrive with simple memorization to show off how they learn. The diversity of students encourages the broadening of your own world view. A wide range of courses, allowing for study into incredibly specific topics. The main issue with the university is the wait time for wellbeing appointments, as it can take up to four months to even get a foot in the door. This means that if you do need help, it is very difficult to achieve. Also, while it isn't the university's fault, it is important to know that the First Bus system is not very reliable, so if you have a job in town, it is quite nerve-wracking.

Positives: There is a "close nit" and collective feeling at this uni. Since classes are fairly small and Chichester itself is a fairly small city, you get to know the area very well even after a few walks around the city and campuses. (The local charity and book shops are very nice, please do check them out!) If you enjoy a small town vibe where you can have charming hangouts with a few of your friends at the local bakery/coffee shop and you don't mind frequenting the same shop every week, then I would definitely recommend this uni for you. The resources for student help and support are easy to book and most needs are accounted for such as exploring counselling and neurodivergency. Moving to the university was very seamless and I integrated well into my accommodation (Stockbridge). Negatives: If you enjoy exploring a large busy city with giant buildings and that "metropolitan life", then Chichester is likely not the place for you. If you don't like commuting to your nearest shop or maybe not having access to specific amenities, then maybe do some research and have a stroll through the city on google maps.

University of Hull has a beautiful and serene environment suitable for learning and even relaxing. The lecturers are very warm and receptive. Things that could be improved: student union (I don’t really see what they do, I’m sorry); the university should make arrangements with more landlords in order to make students living easier; Timetable should be more flexible (we asked for a change in my department but nothing was done)

The university is very good, it is unexpected, as I studied in a university in Pakistan, so the experience I had there, what I saw here, it is a very outstanding type of university, its location is very beautiful, apart from that, what is there is its lecture halls, its seminars and the staff of the international business management of this university, which are teachers, they are very good, they are cooperative, they deal with international students very well, the communication style is very good, along with that, the seminars and the first lectures are in the morning, there are seminars in the evening, it is a very outstanding type, it is a structure that has been created. The most important thing is that health issues are highlighted and preferred here, and there are many other facilities here that are for all kinds of people, and there are very unexpected things that I have seen here for the first time in my life in a university.
