Forensic Psychology postgraduate degrees in South East England

Students receive a lot of support from the lecturers and other faculty members. Additionally there are different departments specialising in offering students support and guidance. There are many events organised to help students socialise and relax or be part of the activities that boost their CV and skills. If I had the chance to start my programme again, I will definitely do it as I feel sad it’s nearly the end of my uni life and I will be missing it a lot.

I was in the Bedford campus and the student life was limited. This was because many people travelled into uni from their homes. The student union was great at providing activities in the afternoons/ evenings. They also support students. all you have to do is email them or go to social events.

University of Greenwich focuses a lot on diversity and inclusion. There are a lot of services available in relation to that, wellbeing, inclusion plans and other things to make your experience at the University more manageable/enjoyable. There are plenty of opportunities for learning and discovering and I have felt right at home from the beginning. I tend to feel like an outsider but the environment and support here has been great. I tend to be an independent worker and both during my masters and now during my PhD I have gotten plenty of opportunity to work both with others and to work by myself. This helped me develop better team working and working with others but given me the space to choose how much I want to do independently myself. One aspect I have had repeated issues with is the fact that the university's beaurocracy is a very slow progres and I have had to wait extended periods of time for replies or help with different things in relation to application, registration, feedback & hierarchical matters.

Best: well-rounded, educated lecturers that are enthusiastic about contributing to our learning; lots of societies providing opportunities Worst: assessors for written assignments and PBL tutors tend to not give a level playing field for marking/educating - we don't get taught exactly the same things as the rest of our cohort, it is tutor dependent (PBL, clinical skills, etc)

The location in central London not far from where the UKs decisions are made is amazing. The library has most of the resources I need and if you can’t find something the library staff will happily try and make it available. The thing where the uni lets us down the most is admin.

The University of Westminster is a great place to study because of its location in the heart of London, at Baker Street. The professors are excellent and have relevant knowledge and experience in the sports industry. We also hear from experienced guest speakers working in the industry, which gives us valuable insight into real-world careers. In addition, we go on trips to visit sporting stadiums and venues, which is very helpful for gaining practical experience and a deeper understanding of the industry. The university experience could be enhanced by organising more on-campus activities and events for students.

I find the location, community and campus feel very peaceful and relaxing, and the education provided is good quality and varied. There could be more support for students who struggle to fit in with the student body, e.g., more help and encouragement to join societies or opportunities to socialise with peers.
