What students say about biology

Best - Love the fields and the lake - great lecturers - my course structure and content is great - great people very friendly - societies and sports are decent - public transport is decent - Y2K is good - bar is good atmosphere, great music, pool, kareoke, etc Worst - a lot of buildings seem run down and un used - when I first got here the amount of admin I had to do to set everything up was so annoying and long - Norwich isn’t a great city getting more unsafe and expensive - SU pints are becoming very expensive - construction has been going on for ages - in first year maintenance were over all the time, sometimes very early on Sundays for very unnecessary reasons and sometimes cos everything was broken - the amount of 9ams I’ve had especially on Thursdays has been a pain especially given how much the SU promotes sports nights - sometimes events aren’t really promoted at all and you just have to hear about them through the grapevine - quite often busses into the city don’t turn up at all which is VERY annoying - tap water in Britten house was gross, as were the showers, could CONSTANTLY smell sewage - single beds !!!!

What students say about biology

The best aspects of my university experience have been the sense of community and the opportunities for personal and academic growth. My course is taught by passionate lecturers who make the subject feel relevant and engaging, and I’ve appreciated how approachable most staff are when I need help. There are also plenty of extracurricular activities and societies, which made it easy to meet people with similar interests. The campus facilities—like the library, study spaces, and wellbeing services—have also been a big part of what makes it a great place to study. In terms of what could be improved, there are a few key areas. Communication between departments could sometimes be clearer, especially around deadlines and timetable changes. At busy times of the year, access to study spaces can become limited, and more quiet areas or longer opening hours would make a difference. It would also help if there were more practical, hands-on learning opportunities such as placements, workshops, or industry links, as these really enhance understanding and employability. Overall, the university offers a supportive and stimulating environment, but with better organisation and more resources during peak periods, the student experience could be even stronger.

The best aspects are that the teachers are helpful and experienced and so it helps with learning, however there could be more help with exam resources such as more practice questions for the exam to get the most support

Best aspects: The university provides a supportive learning environment with helpful lecturers and good academic resources. The campus is generally welcoming, and there are plenty of opportunities to develop skills both academically and personally. Worst aspects / Improvements: One issue that needs improvement is the heating and hot water system, as it does not always work properly. At times, students only have access to cold water, which can be uncomfortable and difficult, especially for students who are sensitive or have health issues related to cold temperatures. Ensuring reliable heating and hot water would greatly improve student comfort and wellbeing.

What students say about biology

I am a mature distance learning student, completing my MA in Philosophy of Religion and Ethics. The online platform is easy to use and the digital library is expansive. All staff have been easy to contact when I need any support, including IT, Finance, Admin, my personal tutor and teaching staff. I have been assigned a mentor to help me stay connected with university life and the Philosophy department. The modules are contemporary, as are the course materials. The student cohort is diverse and we all connect to the course flexibly, from different time zones. I receive a weekly events newsletter which has plenty of options for attending online webinars and socials.

What students say about biology

The best part of my university experience has been meeting people from different backgrounds and cultures, which improved my communication skills and confidence. I also enjoyed learning practical knowledge related to my course that will help me in my future career. Worst aspect: The most challenging part was managing time between assignments, exams, and part-time work. Sometimes it was stressful, but it helped me become more organised and responsible. If you want, I can also make it more professional or more personal for a specific form.

It does gave students a broader knowledge on psychology and skills to prepare for Phd and Doctorate. However, i still don’t understand why we are studying statistics at high level where exams are strict based and explanations does not try to relate it to the field of psychology!
