There are a lot of opportunities and chances to build a career or an idea of what you want to do post university, however, the teaching style doesn’t always sit right with me as every lecturer has their own preferred style and that means it can be difficult to get consistently good marks. If there were more readily available support sessions with academic advisors/ if there could be more help with essays in the way that lecturers actually tell you what they want instead of just hoping you get the idea then I feel like my academics would have more direction. In general though it is a good university but it could do with better structuring of the social sciences and culture courses (specifically the cultural courses). The resources here are amazing though!!

Could be more structured and interactive to consolidate learning.

It was a good location and generally not the worst place to live, however, the hygiene and quality of the building was not good.

I moved accommodation due to poor organisation of the uni, but apart from that, I’ve had an amazing time in Manchester! The course is good, the people are great and the nightlife is pretty much unbeatable in the north. It’s the kind of place all your mates will want to visit, and I would tell anyone who wants to apply to be ready to have to host for a lot of friends as there’s so much going on here and it’s such a popular city!
