Tell us about your overall university experience so far.
It’s been great. I’m in my final year and I’ve seen the university change (for the better) a lot. Timetableling can still improve but otherwise overall it’s been a fantastic experience. There have been amazing networking opportunities great and current topics discussed in major events a lot of social events and the grand ball all of which have made the university experience a memorable one
Facilities
How good are your university's facilities?
ICT is moderately good. But could do with a lot of improvement. WiFi is extremely slow and so are some computers
Library has improved over the last few years though more silent study spaces and 24/7 Library would be great
Student support
How good is the support offered by the uni? Think both academic (tutors/feedback) and personal (counselling, etc).
Personal is good. Academic could be improved. We have personal tutors and counselling services both of whom are very nice in person and approachable. Academic however can be somewhat distant and I feel like lecturers have a bit of unconscious bias (they’re human after all) which may affect how they get back to students
Local life
Is your university in a good location in terms of distance to accommodation and local amenities?
Is amazing. Everything is a very short walk or tube journey form each other so travelling is not a hassle when the tube works. There are so many good restaurants and bars as well as clubs. Soho / Chinatown are a 5 minuet drive away which is awesome. Also there are opportunities for a lot of delivery services like uber eats etc
Lecturers and teaching quality
What do you like most and least about the way your course(s) are taught?
The practical aspect of it. The assignments are a very good opportunity to put the knowledge that gained in class to practice
How many contact hours per week do you have?
30
Career prospects
How does your uni make efforts to increase your employability (careers department, work placements, transferable skills)?
Careers & Business relations department does exist in a remote corner in the university where very few students go. This is definitely the case for Student’s I’m my course where as for international business students have mandatory work experience to which they have to get CBR involved. Otherwise in general the SU and other departments in the university organisers events that gives insights and networking opportunities to all students
