Mechanic Physics postgraduate degrees in Wales

Best aspects would definitely be the people and the location. By the beach but with safe and lively night life, which in my opinion is important for most undergrad students, also the welsh are lovely and friendly. It depends on the area but overall the city feels extremely safe which was important for me. Some of the buildings on the old campus (singleton) look a bit run-down especially when the sun isn't out so it might be worth them revamping some buildings to make certain parts look less depressing. But again thats only a few, and the walk to campus is lovely especially as theres a massive park/green space right next to campus, with a 2 minute detour taking you right to the beach. Can't say too much on the students' union because it looks good but i havent really engaged with it. They always have some sort of event going on but honestly i havent been to many, so maybe the events could be more engaging so more people including myself would go.

Worst - I am a commuting student who uses the train to get to campus. Many events hosted by the Students Union take place in the evening or on weekends, which make it difficult for me to attend and still be able to make it to classes the next day. This means I can't fully participate in student life. Best - 24 hour libraries as I get to campus fairly early and know I have somewhere quiet to work. The opportunities provided on the Archaeology course are good, e.g. trips and a mix between lectures and workshops. The university also helped me get a disabled students allowance that paid for study skills mentoring, which I appreciate.
