Some of the bathrooms and classrooms are a bit outdated. So it would be nice if they were modernised. It's a good place to study due to it's location and the fact that there are lots of well advertised opportunities available, as well as plenty of support from both students and staff in all aspects of student life.

What students say about caring-skills

Student safety and community feel is very strong. Lots of history surrounding the university and the town is beautiful. To improve I would have better transport for student to move between town and the nearest cities (like Edinburgh), better nightlife for the students and more accomodation.

What students say about caring-skills

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.

What students say about caring-skills

I adore the campus and I am proud to say that I have studied at Aberdeen. The support services are excellent and lecturers are generally excellent. However, there is not a lot going on round about the uni and transport links are not great in Aberdeen. The students union leaves a lot to be desired.

Improvements to the buildings are appriciated, some buildings feel disconnected from. Their old outside appearance, however I still would recommend the campus as one of the more good looking/appealing ones.

I feel that I have still learned a lot, but many of the assessments have been changed from practice assessments to essays or tests. I just can’t wait to be on campus because I know it will be so much better. I can’t give a proper opinion until I see what everything is like for myself

I think the staffs are quite helpful and friendly which makes it easier for us to co ordinate with them. To improve them i would say the classes starting form the morning 9 am should be delayed or it shouldn't be in tha time as students like me who lives far away its difficult to come and attend class at 9am. So i really hope the university will look in this time schedule .
