The new venues are really modern and up to date providing excellent eating and studying facilities. The students union is also a great place to spend time. The university could however offer more societies for post-graduate students to connect!

What students say about optics

Best experience: a lot of student space when studying out of hours Worst experience: Student food is very expensive, it is well known that most students can not afford luxury goods, as most are not dependent on their parents but are not able to have a full time job, yet to have a nutritious meal you need to spend like you have money, majority does not have the privilege to enjoy two nutritious meals a day and the access we have to food in the university does not help
