The best aspects are the student union and the facilities available. I think it could be improved if we had more books generally available at the library without requiring click and collect, since right now the library feels like a study space but not a real library.

I find the amount of support from academic to international and student representative support so immense and it made coping and adjusting to the new environment very easy. The uniskills and library services here is top notch and staff here are very helpful and give guidance when needed. One thing that can be improved is creating more part time job opportunities for students especially international students.

Lots of students which gives the opportunity to make friends. Lots of activities to engage in every week which acts as a break away from work. Huge library with several resources to help me along the way. Also inspire funds with funds given every academic year which is good when U want to purchase something but may not want to take it out from your own money. Although there should be activities to do during the daytime like sports activities rather than just in the night when some students may want to head home after studies.

What students say about communication-studies

The lecturers are good and helpful, but also keep them interesting, my cohort is very nice and friendly. Our timetable. 3 different lectures have been packed into the same day, meaning it is a very busy day and is inconvenient since I commute.

What students say about communication-studies

I would say that the city is amazing, the nightlife and the people and places to go and experience the proper Liverpool culture are great. The uni campus is very nice with lots of places to sit, surrounded by nice architecture. I would say some of the educational buildings seem a bit outdated and sometimes the toilet facilities are a bit of a walk but other than that lectures are scheduled within proximity so that there is not too much walking around. The union is amazing with so many great societies and the bar and guild events are spot on!
