Stirling is located right between Glasgow and Edinburgh which is very convenient when wanting to go out and do fun things. The city is beautiful and easily accessible by walking and/or taking public transportation. Overall, the curriculum is solid, but I feel like my program specifically is lacking face to face communication with staff and faculty. However, we have raised these concerns and they are slowly being addressed. I wish there were more open places to sit and study throughout the academic buildings as Campus Central is often crowded throughout the entirety of the day. Students and staff are mainly friendly and will provide assistance to you when you ask.

Our course is taught with courses that are online and in person. For our statistics course, the entire cohort has been struggling. We have raised concerns but it seems like we are not getting anything back except slight frustration that we do not understand. We physically see our lecturers in person on average about two, maybe three, hours a week. We complete many readings and assignments online. The course is heavy in economics and business, but lacks a little in speaking about psychology and its impact and effects on the workplace. A little worried about applying to future jobs and PhD opportunities, but hope these concerns will be addressed in the coming future.

The halls, that I live in, are older and lack newer appliances and materials. I struggle with understanding the cost of my accommodation as we have very small fridges that can barely house food for the amount of people required to stay in the flat and showers that you can barely move in. We have very few washing machines (4) which makes it difficult to do laundry when over 200 or so people live within these accommodations. The WiFi is hit or miss, either fast or not working at all.
