English Literature postgraduate degrees

The strong sense of community, excellent student support and the focus on academic excellence with a personal touch makes it a great place to study. There could be more investment in academic resources and libraries and the student union could be more active and engaging.

I attended this university for my undergraduate degree over a decade ago, and I cherished my experience then just as much as I do now. Currently, I find myself in a different phase of life as a mature student with a young family. Nevertheless, I believe that the student experience and facilities continue to meet my needs, even as they differ from those I had during my undergraduate studies. Across all campuses, the staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The environment is clean and well-maintained, fostering a strong sense of pride among both students and staff. Overall, the university feels safe and inclusive. I wouldn't say there is a worst aspect of my university experience, as I feel it meets my expectations at this stage in my career and life.

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.

My university experience had its highs and lows. The best part was the supportive academic environment, with passionate lecturers and plenty of resources like well-equipped libraries and study spaces. The vibrant campus life, with diverse clubs and events, made it a great place to meet people and grow personally. However, there were some downsides, like the high cost of living and occasional administrative delays, which could be frustrating. Improving affordability and streamlining student support services would make the experience even better overall.

WIFI is absolutely awful and there are many dead zones around campus. How can a top-level engineering university provide such poor internet connection, especially when all of our assignments are internet based and due online? I am constantly searching for places around campus with any useable connection and the VPN speeds when you're off campus are just unusable. It's the year 2024. How have we not figured this out yet? It's absolutely unaccusable. You have the money to build an entire new campus, but can't fix the internet at your main campus? Awful.

The best aspect of the university is its inclusiveness and overall collectiveness and community you get when you’re a part of the university and even after you have left I have seen previous alumni and staff being an active part of the community works present over here and participate in their respective events.

Great facilities and nice campus. Course is interesting and teaching is of a high standard Loughborough is quite small and sometimes the nightlife can be a little be quiet, but overall have had really good nights out

Location: lots of the buildings are close together, easy to get to another lecture. Improvements: Bringing back the anonymous chat where u ask teachers questions throughout the lesson or just another way to be able to ask the teacher any enquires that is quick (not moodle though as everyone can see what u asked).
