What students say about film-special-effects

Easily to access from my home via bus since it is not far from the bus stop. Facilities are good and student support is better than in many universities. Improvements can be made by introducing an assessment withdrawal period, for example I accidentally hit to submit my assessment early on blackboard before I answered any questions. A good way to introduce this would be introducing a period to withdraw of maybe 1 or 2 minutes before it is officially submitted. This would be a small enough window to prevent students cheating and would help prevent accidental submissions.

What students say about film-special-effects

The facilities are amazing and the tutors always push and help you down the route you would like to take. They allow full creative freedom and don’t try to take over or control your process. The recourses are also really easy to find. Could be improved by timetabling better and the attendance machine rarely works. Also a lack of events held at the uni.

What students say about film-special-effects

The university often hold different types of activities for students to participate, which allows students to get together and meet more new friends. Also, it is convenient to have a Costcutter on campus and a LIdl within a 10 min walking distance. Meanwhile if student needs help and went to the student hub, it often take a long time for queuing up to seek help.

What students say about film-special-effects

I think uni is a stepping stone to new avenues in life and the best aspects include: meeting new people from around the globe; making new connections within the industry. Bad aspects of study include; poor communication and planning, expensive food, and no personal work space.

Love the location, however teaching and provisions greatly differ depending on your course. My course is fairly well provided for and taught, however there are many students I know who are studying more creative courses that feel they are being severely let down. For example, my partner receives next to no feedback on his work, one of his teachers has never even worked in his line of study and does zoom lessons only, and he has been disregarded heavily when it comes to needing equipment to complete his work. For reference, he studies a Music Bachelors degree and is in his 3rd year.

From the verry fist day that students come to the university students get support whit all the informations they need advice on thinks like email addresses phone number to not be change verry often whrn it s possible and the Teachers guides us and teach us in a way that nobody was done it before making students learn abd have fun all off that in the same time, nevertheless Teachers help students afterhours to being there for all the students allmost 24/7. A slight problem that it can be improved it is the heating in clases some off them feels so cold even cold then outside sometimes and students cannot payng fully attention to the teacher because it is so cold sometimes in the classes due to air condition that is stuck on cold air and eich cannot be stoped for some reasons although The Teachers try to stop it or resetvit but ehit no succes on that. Other then that everything it s great and everytime we are in there ne personally and i think i can talk in the name off the rest off the students got the feeling that we dont wanna leave that ee wanna stay more unwilling to go home most off thst credit wich Teachers deserve it and the warm and welcoming feeling that ee got everytine when we are at the university and in classrooms.

What students say about film-special-effects

I am thoroughly enjoying studying at Portsmouth University, although i have struggled throughout my time here with mental health problems all the staff in every department have been amazing and without their incredible support im not sure i would have reached my third year and be looking at graduating! i cant praise them higher, it is an incredible university that treats every student the same no matter who they are, where they are from or any disabilities they may have.
