What students say about acoustics-and-vibration-physics

Why do you let school kids into the UNIVERSITY library ? There is a public library 5 mins away, they don’t understand any library etiquette, I’m trying to revise for my fourth year medicine exams and they are chatting on level 5?! And let’s not even get started on level 4 which is meant to be a silent level, sounds like a socialising cafe during exam season. If you’re going to let them in , at least enforce the rules of silent study or say they can only go on one floor. They’re not paying 10K a year so how come they can use the library facilities and disrupt the people who do pay?

What students say about acoustics-and-vibration-physics

The best part of my experience has been the practical approach to learning and the diverse student community, which made it easy to meet people and gain different perspectives. The course helped me build useful, real-world skills. On the downside, some areas could be better organised, and communication at times could be improved. Overall, it’s been a valuable and enriching experience.

What students say about acoustics-and-vibration-physics

What makes my uni a great place to study is their student support. They try to help their students in any way possible to ensure that students get the best out of their education. I think it would be better if the university put more effort into societies and clubs such as sporting clubs and teams . It would help the university to have more of a community and really showcase other talents other than what students already study on their courses. My university do have societies and some sporting teams, however some of the societies don’t run anymore and it’s not made to be as big as it was when I first heard about it before I joined uni. I think it’s important to have that feel of community and university culture and to also show the inclusiveness of different cultures, groups and activities in which people associate them selves with.

Studying subjects I genuinely cared about was incredibly rewarding. Unlike school, university allowed deep exploration of ideas, debates, and specializations. Whether you’re diving into philosophy at places like University of Oxford or engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, that freedom to focus intensely on your interests is empowering.

What students say about acoustics-and-vibration-physics

The campus always looks presentable and is easily traversable. In the library, there are plenty of people to help with whatever you need. Uploading assignments, looking back at past lectures and looking at your timetable are all very easy to do. I have been supported quite well academically throughout my first year. There could be a wider range of societies to join, but this is not a significant issue. The student union regularly has events for anyone to take part in. The student accommodation is on campus, and other locations are not far, making it easy to attend lectures and classes.

What students say about acoustics-and-vibration-physics

It is a great learning environment with many modern and innovative buildings throughout the campus. I personally have found strathclyde to help me develop my skills in not only my degree subjects but so too with my confidence, communication and interpersonal skills. If i was to improve strathclyde i would say they could make the union bigger and expand services such as cafes and restaurants throughout the campus.

What students say about acoustics-and-vibration-physics

Best experiences Going back to University at the age of 40 and committing to 3 years of studying was quite daunting, the University of Derby is a state of the art facility catering for a wide range of subjects. I have been impressed with the size of the University, giving plenty of room for class rooms, training areas and sports fields outside. The different areas of the campus are clearly signed making it easier to learn your way round, this has made the transition on coming again much more comfortable. The tutors I have had contact with have been supportive, professional, down to earth and have made the educational material fun and relatable. Worst experiences Pebble pad and library inductions were long winded and confusing, I understand that there is a lot of information to give and it needs to be done at the start of our studies, but this may need addressing to make more relatable and easier to absorb as a new starter,
