What students say about sports-psychology

Lots of facilities and welcoming people. Easy to navigate and good location. However could have an increase in events to do on campus both in day and nighttime, as they have both dropped in the last year or so. The student support could be improved a lot as well.

The facilities provided by the university, the libraries cafes and the mode of study used is exceptional. I wouldn't say there's any worst aspect of the University! But probably some more Indian food can be added to the canteen's menu? Hahah.

Novel educational techniques that train you to answer real world problems, providing good facilities for students. It provides so many facilities to students. The education system is based on individual learning experiences which can help students to develop their skills using all the facilities provided. In term of improvement there’s so many different cultures. If there’s more opportunities for students to mix and get to know each other it will be better.

This is my second week at swansea and the freshers week was a wonderful time for me to understand the uni and the grading systems here. There is still a lot to learn but with the support provided by the university and the approachability of the staff at SEA, unihub, union and any other person or a group is just wonderful. Will explore more of the university and facilities incoming days, but I am currently very satisfied and gearing up for my classes to start the upcoming week.

What students say about sports-psychology

My best experience at Ulster University when I started working here as Global Ambassador. I really appreciate that university offers part time to students and obviously it's a well paid job. We learn a lot about communication skill but I am delighted to see that students here at Ulster University can have this practical, hands on experience by working as Global Ambassador, Student Ambassador, Campus Ambassador. University also arranges job fairs, career fairs, various events so the students get opportunities to interact and build network connection with recruiters, fellow students, staffs and faculty members. Ulster University student portal has A 2 Z information for example if a student needs to have access to online publications for writing academic essays, they can easily use online library services in portal. No need to go to bank to pay fees, students can easily pay fees through portal. For international students, university have made available a very useful app called UUniready app. So any international student can get all details in the app that they are required to know before arriving about Belfast/Northern Ireland, University, collecting BRP, booking for accomodation, CELT session, orientation session. I would suggest all facilities should help their students to get placement/internship after completing their course. I have heard many students struggling with getting placement as they don't get that support from faculty. Most of the international students are new here, they don't know much people so I would suggest the facilities should help them to find a placement.

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.

This university provides so much for our course and other courses by ensuring the best possible facilities are up to date, in addition to the amazing staff members who provide exceptional support for us all! The worst part would be the hills however this is to do with the topography of the area and NOT the Uni! On a serious note there is possibly room for improvement with more seating areas within the library as this can become super crowded.

Marjon is well-known for their Education dept./programmes. The learning is engaging and current, and is applicable to my current job. I have easy access to my tutor, and because I am doing my course online, I can make it fit to my busy schedule.
