What students say about criminal-law

I love the university, my course is great and covers a variety of topics. The facilities on campus are amazing and I can book out the dance studios for free. The Roehampton students union is ok but the communication could be better between societies and also in general. I would love the RSu to host more events or at least support and promote other events at the union bar students can attend.

What students say about criminal-law

As an online student at the University of Portsmouth, I found the flexibility of the digital platform to be one of the biggest advantages. The ability to access lectures and resources on your own schedule made balancing studies with work and personal commitments much easier. The virtual learning environment was user-friendly, and the dedicated support staff helped resolve any technical issues promptly, contributing to a seamless learning experience. However, the online format also had its challenges. One of the most significant downsides was the reduced opportunity for face-to-face interaction, which made networking and building a community with peers a bit more difficult. Additionally, while the digital resources were comprehensive, there were occasional delays in receiving feedback or accessing certain materials compared to traditional classroom settings. Overall, my online experience at Portsmouth was highly rewarding, with the flexibility and accessibility being standout features. Addressing the challenges of community engagement and streamlining feedback processes could further enhance the online learning experience.

All staff in university is eager to help you with any kind of questions or problems. At lectures teachers are really engaging and supportive. You never notice how quick time flies during lectures. Especially, before any assignments you are given every detail about it, so you are well prepared and not scared at all. Birkbeck suggests a lot of opportunities for busy social life, where you can meet lots of enthusiastic people, and opportunities for future career such as additional workshops, professional guests, etc. I love being a part of this community!

Overall the uni experience has been great so far however, support lacks at times as they sometimes focus more on grades than mental health. The campus is beautiful and it is a useful place to get work done as there are many seating areas as well as high quality wifi.

The university’s library offers a wealth of resources and quiet study zones, and also collaborative workspaces.

Ideal for self-driven learners valuing adaptability and hands-on support. The staff are knowledgeable and the librarians go above and beyond to assist with research, and academic advisors provide personalized guidance to help navigate projects.

What students say about criminal-law

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.

It's great because you do everything when you have time. The coarse tells you how much time you will need and you fit it in around your circumstances. The OU library is available 24 hours a day so always someone to help no matter what the time. The forums always have someone up late or really early! The tutors provide excellent feedback and are quick to respond
