Epidemiology postgraduate degrees

Couldn’t be happier to have picked SRUC for veterinary nursing! It’s very practical based and really hands on which I love a lot. The lecturers are lovely and in our online (for now) lectures they make sure to try and keep us engaged and give us breaks as they know online learning can be a bit difficult and most of all they try to make it fun! If you’re looking to do veterinary nursing in Scotland I’d definitely recommend SRUC - you might be a bit hesitant at first since it’s out in the countryside and not a city but it’s definitely worth it for the practical learning than you receive on farm etc.

The student union is a great relief for me as an international student and I've found it really helpful in many occasions. I don't find anything unappealing till now but one thing I would look forward to have is more cultural festivals as I'm feeling very much homesick

The immense range of libraries compares well to other unis. The lack of uni funding for sport is a real shame at times though. The nightlife is good - you can make the most of it with good friends - and the city is generally lovely to walk around, with the benefit of being able to access all the colleges.

One of the best aspects of studying at the University of Aberdeen is the strong academic support and access to great facilities, like the Sir Duncan Rice Library. The campus is also beautiful, and the student community is welcoming, which makes it easy to settle in and feel part of things. The lecturers are knowledgeable and approachable, and there are plenty of resources available to support learning. However, an area for improvement would be increasing study spaces during busy times, as it can sometimes be hard to find a quiet spot, especially around exam periods. Additionally, having more streamlined access to online resources and library services in one place, like MyAberdeen, would make it even easier to access what we need for our studies.

Lancaster University’s campus has everything you need when living in university accommodation, however it’s location is a downside as it takes 20-30 minutes to get into town to go shopping. Accommodation is nice, I am in Cartmel and lived in a flat of 8 with an en-suite bathroom. The kitchens and rooms are reasonably spacious with plenty of storage. Downside of en-suite bathrooms is that they flood quickly and drains are blocked easily.
