What students say about biology

The best aspects would be the chance of meeting new people and the community spaces it has for different cultures. I think the worst aspects would be the food served in the cafeteria is not too much to my liking.

What students say about biology

The best aspect is the location, smallish campus and town makes for a great sense of community. Close proximity to London and great town centre with safe nightlife. The worst aspect is the campus aesthetic, not pretty as most of it seems to have been built at once in a brutalist style. This being said, the greenspace by the lake is lovely and the rest of campus is easily navigable.

What students say about biology

I'm an optometry student entering my third year in September 2024. The lecturers are very nice and supportive; however, the optometry students in Group C are extremely rude, disrespectful, and lack any sort of manners. Many of them speak poorly of you if you fall behind or are slow in your routine, and they refuse to collaborate despite knowing that practice is essential for skill improvement.

What students say about biology

My experience at Brunel University is very different from any other student, I would guess. As a mature student, I have other life commitments, and don't spend as much time on campus. However, whenever I needed the support, I had a very satisfactory level of support.

What students say about biology

Best is the people and the quality of the education, worst has to deal with who runs UCL, administration has quite a few dirtbags. Facilitates aren't the greatest. I prefer more of a traditional campus feel and prefer KCL and LSE campus. Still considering coming back to UCL to apply for a LLM, alongside the other London unis, and maybe throw my shot at oxbridge.

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.

What students say about biology

for my department, we have very good lecturers from all over the world with a range of experience, they're very friendly and really want to help, because of the diversity of the staff, you will always find someone you either vibe with or is super helpful in a specific problem you have, they're really down to earth. Theres always things to improve on, the most notable of which is just the types of study spaces, though the workaround is just walking into any random room in a building that isn't being used, and that solves the issues i have with the library etc, there are printers everywhere and yeah, not much to complain about Except one thing though, if each lecturer had the same way they set up their QMPLUS that would be good, as some lecturers have very well organised and informative QMPLUS pages while others do not, just so you know the QMPLUS page is where you can find all your lecture recordings, tutorial problems, semester plan and other info on the course,

My best experience at the university of East London is the student hub. Every time when I had any kind of confusion or difficulties, I went to the student hub. Staff at student hub are extremely polite and cooperative. I faced difficulty in finding the lecture class at the university.
