What students say about chemistry

As an international Environmental Management student, my time at Plymouth has been defined by two things: academic freedom and incredible support. When I faced significant personal loss and financial struggles that impacted my attendance, the faculty didn't write me off they gave me the flexibility to recover and succeed. The course itself is far more than just exams. I was able to lead complex, consultancy-style projects (like my work on Singapore Heat Stress policies) that felt like real professional work, not just coursework. The resources in the Marine Building and library are top-tier for anyone willing to push themselves. Plymouth offers a rare balance: it challenges you intellectually to reach distinction levels, but supports you personally when life gets hard. Highly recommended for students who want resilience alongside their degree.

What students say about chemistry

Older campus tucked out of the way but super friendly and chill vibes all round. Especially the Octagon in the middle of campus, the two chaplains in there are absolutely wonderful and friendly people, and they have 2 dogs to cuddle if you need a furry friend lectures are more interactive with you as a student because of the smaller class sizes so they get to know you as an individual, and student support are great! The only negative I have is there are a lot of potholes and the elevators are often breaking. Overall, pretty good!!
