Analytical Chemistry postgraduate degrees

I love all the student deals. However, I feel like many of the student activity processes could be streamlined as it seems so overwhelming as a foreigner/first-year. Like, having to book a ticket, but then still waiting in line or an event being overbooked via ticketing that people are dissuaded to come. Then, when the event takes place, the ticket holders don’t even come.

One of the best aspects of my university experience has been the supportive and engaging learning environment. Many of the lecturers are genuinely passionate about their subjects and approachable outside of class, which makes a big difference when you need help or want to explore topics more deeply. The range of resources available—such as libraries, online materials, and study spaces—also makes it easier to stay on top of coursework. Additionally, the social side of university life stands out, with a wide variety of clubs and societies that help you meet people, try new things, and feel part of a community. That said, there is still room for improvement. Communication can sometimes be inconsistent, particularly when it comes to timetable changes or assessment feedback, which can be frustrating. In some cases, feedback on assignments could be more detailed or returned more promptly to better support learning. Improving organization and communication across departments would enhance the overall experience and make it an even better place to study.

Limited amount of shops in Lincoln, which makes it get a bit stale quick, but is still a lovely city with plenty of things to do. Another downside is the fact it is in the middle of nowhere, you have to get trains or coaches if you want to go anywhere else. However, it does have everything you need as a student, with a good night out as well

Loughborough is very accessible and has lots to offer solely on the campus, luckily it’s only a short walk into town for more as well! I do think some sort of student bus card for the sprint bus when going into town would be great as a trip is £3.

I love the city in general. The University's libraries are good. with proper facilities that I can use, such as discussion rooms, computers, printers, even 3D printer! Some buildings look so old but in positive ways, make them look classic and cultured. However, in my own experience, some classrooms are a little bit aged. i mean, like some chairs are feel old, they are sometimes kind of wobbly, and some of them do not have enough leg room. Main library can be crowded when exam days come, but I think that is something that can not be avoided. i think it is good to add some space for classrooms or some like study hubs.

i love the community - societies are great, i love how i’ve met so many people and get to do a course i love, the worst aspect is maybe how many days were in as it doesn’t see very worth it and facilities/resources for art students as we got £150 from an exhibition last year and they kept the money for “resources” however we’ve not seen any
