The university has a great campus and student support is active in checking in on student’s mental health and providing support both for mental health and academic reasons. The society’s provide a great opportunity to socialise and improve student night life. However, the stud student union function more as a business than as a study body representation. They charge for hot water in the campus library, taking advantage of students that cannot afford basics as they are in need of money, themselves. They need more funding.

My quantitative research placement is great for my career prospects after university. The lectures always go above and beyond, helping in their contact hours where they can. The content has always been interesting and informative for projects/assignments. I wish there were more research based modules to provide skills for post graduate opportunities, such as excel and other data visualisation tools, as these were not used until my final year optional module

The accommodation was clean and lovely as it was large. But we had cleaners come into our rooms without knocking or notice at random hours of the day, and the price for the accommodation is over £10k for the year, which is over double my maintenance loan. That is crazy to expect a student to pay just for accommodation

It’s a good location, walking distance from city centre just an hour away from London, there is support if you need it, loads of activities to do like quiz night and good facilities but the lecture timetable is kinda long and spaced out therefore you have long periods of time between lectures and seminars and there are quite a lot of assignments to do therefore maybe see if these could be improved

For each module in course there is a lecture and seminar to help you understand and if that is not enough there is also a homework club and drop in section for extra support. 2 lectures are online and rest in person they are all 1 hour long but seminar is 2 hours long. There isn’t much contact with lecturers unless you personally ask a question or help or they are you seminar teacher.
