What students say about painting-and-drawing

Worst is the limited contact time with professors. It feels really rushed which is unfortunate because there is so much to discover here and it becomes stressful when we feel like cattle who must be rushed in and out. The university itself is fantastic though. It’s incredibly inspiring to walk through the workshops, lecture halls, and library- it feels like you’re in the center of the world. Everything is state of the art and the staff is phenomenal. I just wish they cut less corners in terms of students’ ability to engage with it all.

What students say about painting-and-drawing

The campus is absolutely gorgeous! A wonderful mix of old and new, castles and modern buildings. Reserving rooms encourages students to get out of their rooms and study anywhere on campus, from the top of the castle tower, to the communal "pods" at Commons. The Student Union building has a bar and a small shop, and activities going on almost every day. Karaoke every other Saturday is one of my favourites. Close enough to the city of Bath for easy access, while still having the feeling of a university town. Lots of student discounts and student bars/clubs in town, as the University of Bath is also nearby. Interesting classes, lovely lecturers and guest lecturers, and proper assessments. Few, if not none, tests, allowing for those who do not thrive with simple memorization to show off how they learn. The diversity of students encourages the broadening of your own world view. A wide range of courses, allowing for study into incredibly specific topics. The main issue with the university is the wait time for wellbeing appointments, as it can take up to four months to even get a foot in the door. This means that if you do need help, it is very difficult to achieve. Also, while it isn't the university's fault, it is important to know that the First Bus system is not very reliable, so if you have a job in town, it is quite nerve-wracking.

The best is the people and the lecturers. The facilities are vast meaning support is available for many issues not only academic. The place that may need improvement is the social accepts as it may be hard to make connections for many.

Best parts: the freedom to experiment in the course; Wimbledon is not in a distracting/busy part of the London; some connections to places such as Lyric Hammersmith (would be nice to see more connections) Bad parts: I have faced bullying and unprofessional/unproductive people in my course; the canteen is below good quality (too crowded, expensive and inconsistent quality); the course has felt unstructured and unfocused a lot of times; the student community could be strengthened more

I think that the best part of the university is the availability of software and equipment, especially for my course since a lot of software and equipment are needed that could range from a price on hundreds to thousands. However, this could be improved because there are still some software and equipment that aren’t available yet or that aren’t the latest versions/models which could help on improving my coursework performance.
