The course is amazing! The campus is great but confusing to find your way around. The main lecture theatre is very cold, outdated and the toilets are horrible. Personal lockers available would be very useful! As a mature student in my 40's I feel completely like a fish out of water often as there is very little social support for mature students. There is no help at all with finding accommodation that is not shared or with other mature students. Finding my own accommodation has impacted on my first two months of study heavily and my first submissions. Accommodation found that allows students is expensive. The lectures are scattered over five days which makes it difficult with arranging shifts at work, study time and time with family and friends who live a distance from me. The impact of scattered lectures and labs affects me earning a regular income without burning out. Often I have to go from uni, straight to work then back to uni first thing. Recorded lectures are very helpful. There is still an obligation to attend actual lectures though as remote watching isn't an option and missing coming into the lecture theatre on campus affects attendance.

There is a wide range of subjects covering many interesting topics. I feel as though I have such wide choice of where I want to focus my career. The lecturers are all very friendly, approachable and happy to provide any advice and clarity.
