What students say about religious-studies

Not all, but some of the nursing lecturers have sadly adopted an authoritarian approach to teaching. Katie Batley and Janice High really bring the whole experience down for many of us with their bad attitudes. Katy Hodgson has proven herself a very dishonest person which has had a negative impact on the cohort.

The facilities are excellent and so is the support offered by staff, tutors, librarians, welfare support etc. The location of creative campus is beautiful and so handy for the city centre. My course is excellent and engaging.

It truly is a beautiful school in a beautiful area, I love the look and feel of being in a smaller uni town and the student life is really the only thing I would improve in general. They attempt to hold a lot of events for students but the student motivation to attend these events are not high.

Sheffield Hallam University

What students say about religious-studies

I am pursuing a one-year master's course at Sheffield Hallam University. My academic background is in commerce; I completed a Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com). However, I have decided to transition my career into the IT industry. The IDP team assisted me in exploring various options, and I ultimately chose this program because it is specifically designed for non-computing students who aspire to build their careers in the field of computing. This course includes both theoretical classes and practical lab sessions, which are conducted one day a week. The combination of lectures and hands-on learning provides a balanced approach to understanding key computing concepts and applying them in real-world scenarios. The tutors are incredibly supportive and cooperative, always ready to clarify doubts and provide guidance. Best Experiences at Sheffield Hallam University: 1. Supportive Environment : The university offers excellent resources, such as access to advanced labs and a library with extensive digital and physical resources. 2. Practical Learning: The lab sessions are interactive and help reinforce theoretical knowledge. 3. Cultural Diversity: Interacting with students from different backgrounds has broadened my perspective. 4. Career Support: The career services team assists with CV preparation, interview techniques, and connecting with potential employers. Challenges/Worst Experiences: 1. Adapting to Computing Concepts: Coming from a commerce background, the initial weeks were challenging as I needed to familiarize myself with technical terms and concepts, also i think we need to do hard work in order to compete with existing students who already studied computing in previous studies 2. Weather: Adjusting to the cold and rainy climate in Sheffield was difficult initially. 3. Time Management: Balancing coursework and independent study requires good time management skills, especially with a one-year intensive program. Overall, the experience at Sheffield Hallam has been transformative, equipping me with the knowledge and skills to pursue a successful career in computing.

There are excellent lecturers and student support services (particularly academic skills). The campus has a good feel and has a lot of outdoor seating which will be nice when the weather is warm. Lecture rooms are good but the seats are very uncomfortable. There is little impact from the students' union, for example there was no 'refreshers fayre' for January intake students, which also impacts the student life score.

The main thing I love about Uni of Manchester is that there is the campus feel that really makes you feel like a university student but also you are really close to the rest of a big city! I also have to mention the main library - shout out to purple obviously... an exceptional place to study. I will miss it so much when I've gone! UoM could be improved by making sure that courses are made more social! Apart from medicine, I don't know of any other course that makes an effort to mix the student populations of the course. In my undergrad, I knew about 5 people and that's it! There weren't really other opportunities for us to mix and to meet new people.

I love the campus and the atmosphere we have. its a beautiful place to study and i have enjoyed my time here. All the staff are wonderful, I have a brilliant supervisors and enjoy my course. I have learnt a lot whilst at Lancaster However, i find that the student union is broken, it does not uphold its own beliefs. The societies may work but the actual student union body is useless. it needs and overhall, and needs attention brought to the actions of the staff and how people follow their regulations.
