What students say about manufacturing

The Stag Hill Campus is very scenic if you like wildlife, and greenery but the buildings are also modern if you like modern architecture too. It's also quiet and calming when you walk in the morning, which is relaxing. It does have steep slopes to walk up, so for commuters, it is quite exhausting (as a commuter myself). Speaking of commuting, the Guildford Railway Station is a 10-minute walk away from the University of Surrey, and you can use the Southwestern Railway to travel etc. As a foundation year student, the support I get from my lecturers has been greatly beneficial and they have answered questions greatly with clarity. I feel like I have the same access to University features as any other student, despite being a foundation year student, which is helpful when I transition into the first year. Plus it doesn't feel patronising- as other universities would put you in a partnered college (which in itself isn't bad, but for me, it would feel like I'd miss out on the university experience academically and socially). Student Life is friendly in Surrey. People typically help provide directions if you're lost (academically, socially and in a literal sense if you get physically lost). It is quiet and calming for introverts, but I will say it does get boring since it's based in Guildford- a quiet town, as opposed to a bustling city like London, Manchester or Birmingham. If you want a "nightlife experience" you might as well go to "The Rubix" for a late-out clubbing experience in Surrey. The University is close to shopping centres like "The Friary" if you need to buy essentials for your accommodation, socialise with your mates or spice up your fashion game. So there are some things to do for fun! I don't regret my decision to go to Surrey. Despite being an extrovert and loving to party, I do love looking at wildlife and scenic greenery around me. It's relaxing and gets you grounded back to reality in a peaceful manner. There's a large lake on campus with ducks, lots of squirrels on trees, and even deer if you're lucky enough to spot one on the way.

What students say about manufacturing

Why it’s a great place to study is because it has modern facilities, it has industrial connections and also the lecturers are willing to be there for the students. About improvement I think the school should create a way where students can look out for each other willing

What students say about manufacturing

The campus at the University of Nottingham is a beautiful place to be able to complete my studies. It has a welcoming and homely feeling. Facilities such as the David Ross Sports Centre and both libraries make it easy for me to complete extra activities such as netball and going to the gym, along with great places to study. Improvements involving the student union could be made, as I found it difficult to find out information about this. However, I couldn’t fault any other aspect of the University.

The University of Greenwich has an amazing atmosphere that just feels great to be a part of. Everyone, from colleagues to teaching staff, is friendly and always ready to help. The way they teach is engaging and really gets your brain working. Plus, all the teachers have loads of experience and are super dedicated to helping students succeed. The student help center, library, labs, and classrooms are all top-notch, set up to give students the best possible learning environment. Everything is so well-equipped, providing maximum exposure and opportunities to learn. Honestly, I can't think of anything to improve because the university is always making things better for us students. It's just perfect!

What students say about manufacturing

Their facilities are great, especially the gym department - It’s catering to many sports and activities. The overall location is ideal too as it’s in zone 1 and the transport links are well connected. I would say that the careers hub isn’t as hands on with opportunities, you really have to search and take initiative when looking and applying for internships.

The best part is that progressing through each year for me was very smooth and easy. Difficult problems though stressful at times do eventually get sorted out. Everything is in one area easy to navigate. Hardest part is that you have to be very proactive at uni lectures don’t find you, departments don’t necessarily find you. You have to be aware of what’s going on and figure out who you need to speak to in order to not miss things and get matters sorted.

What students say about manufacturing

It is a very collaborative and social university, with a nice campus. Some parts of campus are outdated and would benefit from being refurbished however the quality of delivery of my course has been very good. It is a leading sports university so it has been great to be involved in this environment. There are several places to study across campus whether that is collaboratively or individually, which makes it easy to get on with work.

Great location, lectures are very supportive and approachable in my course. Great facilities. Difficulty accessing prayer facilities as its located in top floor without access to elevators. More study spaces needed as they get booked out often.

Best - Good location close to the city centre. Plenty of buses pass through Oxford Rd however during busy times they do fill up quickly. Worst - DASS (Disabled Student Support) have been really disappointing, they made me a support plan before I arrived but a lot of this did not get followed until I chased it up myself. Trying to get in contact with them feels near impossible and getting extra support for university presentations has taken months and one of the presentations has already passed despite contacting DASS weeks prior.
