Youth Studies postgraduate degrees in Southern England

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 people I have met here are so amazing, I feel very safe and comfortable. Testament support are always finding new ways to improve and are continuously raising awareness on what they have on offer and how they are abkd to support every individual

The location in central London not far from where the UKs decisions are made is amazing. The library has most of the resources I need and if you can’t find something the library staff will happily try and make it available. The thing where the uni lets us down the most is admin.

Overall the uni experience has been great so far however, support lacks at times as they sometimes focus more on grades than mental health. The campus is beautiful and it is a useful place to get work done as there are many seating areas as well as high quality wifi.

The university’s library offers a wealth of resources and quiet study zones, and also collaborative workspaces. I value the 24/7 access during critical periods; everything I need to support my learning is available. loanable laptops and specialized software, it supports cutting-edge research. Ideal for self-driven learners valuing adaptability and hands-on support. The staff are knowledgeable and the librarians go above and beyond to assist with research, and academic advisors provide personalized guidance to help navigate projects.
