Applied Sciences postgraduate degrees

I find my university a great place to study because they have so much systems in place to help and support students through university life. So far I can’t find any fault because I have access to so much learning materials and support with wellbeing.

I am currently studying MSc International Business Management at De Montfort University, Leicester, and I am really enjoying my experience. DMU uses a block teaching method, and they are pioneers in this approach. I find it very effective because it allows me to focus on one module at a time for better understanding. The course is highly relevant to my future goals, and the teaching style is engaging and interactive — with weekly lectures, seminars, and workshops that make learning more practical and enjoyable. The only downside is that the workload can feel intense during each block, since all assessments come close together. However, this also helps build time management and focus, which are valuable skills for the future.

I love the university, my course is great and covers a variety of topics. The facilities on campus are amazing and I can book out the dance studios for free. The Roehampton students union is ok but the communication could be better between societies and also in general. I would love the RSu to host more events or at least support and promote other events at the union bar students can attend.

Great place to study, close to hospitals and charities for work experience, lively social atmosphere Worst aspect of uni experience is financial struggle and maintaining independence at such a young age on top of studying

The best aspects of the University of Southampton is the great opportunities, e.g. societies and guest talks. I love going sailing on the Solent every other week and frequently running around the beautiful common. Similarly, new guest come to talk about their roles and how to get into their roles which is very beneficial for career development. There are no bad aspects that I have experienced so far.

My university experience had its highs and lows. The best part was the supportive academic environment, with passionate lecturers and plenty of resources like well-equipped libraries and study spaces. The vibrant campus life, with diverse clubs and events, made it a great place to meet people and grow personally. However, there were some downsides, like the high cost of living and occasional administrative delays, which could be frustrating. Improving affordability and streamlining student support services would make the experience even better overall.

WIFI is absolutely awful and there are many dead zones around campus. How can a top-level engineering university provide such poor internet connection, especially when all of our assignments are internet based and due online? I am constantly searching for places around campus with any useable connection and the VPN speeds when you're off campus are just unusable. It's the year 2024. How have we not figured this out yet? It's absolutely unaccusable. You have the money to build an entire new campus, but can't fix the internet at your main campus? Awful.

I am currently studying MSc Data Science at London South Bank University, and my experience has been really positive. The professors are excellent, very knowledgeable, and always ready to help students whenever needed. The university is truly student friendly and understands the challenges we face. They always try their best to provide the right support and guidance. The placement opportunities here are also excellent, with a strong focus on helping students build their careers. Overall, LSBU is a great place to study, learn, and grow.
