24/7 university

Lots of lectures

Best aspects include SU jobs on offer on campus which fits around my university timetable and allows me to earn money while studying. The lecturers create engaging content and use different methods of teaching/learning to help with consolidation and revision. I am impressed with the online resources we have access to as part of the course (online textbooks, archive, etc) which helps with engaging with content. Improvements could include student-centred pricing of food and drinks on campus (though I realise this may not be feasible) as often it is more expensive on campus compared to off campus, which is not ideal for students.

I like the fact that all of my classes are taught in person and there are voluntary online support sessions for those that would like to supplement their learning with these. I am happy with the amount of contact hours and lecturers are easy to contact and are happy to answer questions and explain things in more detail. I would prefer there to be less lab-based classes and more lectures around the theory behind the lab experiments we do to help more with understanding. I would like a lecture once a term to help with revision methods as well as how we should best use our study time throughout the academic year.
