I chose swansea for my graduation for the placements offered. After graduation majority of the students get into all the leading companies in their field. There are so many opportunities to choose the right track for your career. There are career concealing fairs and people from different companies hold lectures to tell you about what they expect from you. Swansea helps you yo build a solid application and teach you all the necessary and latest techniques useful in any field. If you are a career oriented student then this is one of the best universities you can get into.

Great uni. Limited facilities and equipment cause a small amount of frustration and impede course. However the fantastic lecturers override this issue. Very friendly, helpful and intimate uni.

Being in swansea is the best decision I have ever made in my life. I joined the wind surfing club when i came here and it is freaking the best thing ever. On weekends they take us to different beaches. I have learnt wind surfing coming here and this is the best experience till date. The number of societies and clubs in the student union is amazing. Another thing i like about the university is that there are allocated rooms and staff to clear doubts on different modules during particular days. It is a very helpful thing as students can go there and clarify all the doubts. Swansea also organises many guest lectures from top companies.100/100 for swansea.

Swansea University

Civil Engineering MEng (Hons)

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

Swansea has a good reputation for engineering courses. I am pursuing civil engineering here and the staff and facilities are worth the every penny I have paid. All modules are taught from the very basic and all concepts are made clear. Only the modules necessary for my course are taught and no extra modules are taught. The lab sessions are super fun as different experiments are to be done during them. I live on camps which is the best part because i can go to my room whenever i want to or when i have breaks. The bathrooms are a bit small but it works. I have no complaints regarding swansea and this is totally an awesome university.

I had applied for swansea because my brothers mates were here. They told me all different stories of swansea and that got my interest here. Truly swansea is like a student paradise. The parties here are mad and amazing. Living with so many students is like a killer adventure. I live in uplands and as it rains in swansea everyday, it is a task to attend lectures. Also it is a 20min walk from my house to the campus. But this drawback is not into consideration taking in amount the fun I have here everyday. I don't remember one moment here when i was actually bored. If you are not sure about which uni you want to go to, this is the one.

Computer Science with a Foundation Year - BSc (Hons)

am not that happy and satisfied with this university. At first everything started slow. There was no order for the lecture timings and the timetable distributed were wrong. It was like the staff were doing these things for the first time. There was no one to ask around for help by the university. Most of the staff members were clueless about many things. Only the lecture hall numbers were given and no one knew where they were. The lab sessions started a week late. The accommodations are no good either. The rooms are extremely small. No basic amenities are provided in the room. I am not happy with swansea till now. A different university may have been much better i suppose.

Swansea has gotten the best out of me. Some things which i dint know about my self were explored once i came here. When i was at my home town i was the only person always eager to do something. But here everyone is always up to something fun and so i love it. Apart from the parties, assessments are handed out every week and have certain deadlines. In swansea its like you work hard and party harder. The accommodations are the best part here. Living with your friends with all the freedom and enjoying is the best experience till date. I am totally in love with swansea university.

I had no idea what swansea will be like till i came here. Freshers week changed my whole world upside down. I must say swansea has the craziest freshers week in UK. When i came here i was alone and instantly i made friends. All my flatmates including me chilled in the lounge and was great fun. Even though the university has started there is no limit to the fun I have. Lectures do not occupy all of my time and hence i have ample of time for my gym. I am a he alt freak and swansea has the perfect gym.

University of Cumbria

Primary Education with Qualified Teacher Status BA (Hons)

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

The best thing about university has got to be the lifestyle that comes with it. The students union at UCUM is quite boring and there isn't a whole lot of input to the students about what they actually do. On the first year they closed down the SU bar which was a good social spot which had a lot going for it and is something that I think every university should have in place. The lectures and seminars at university can vary in how helpful and informative I feel they are for my overall degree. The night life isn't really the same as big cities, but I have still enjoyed my last 3 years up here. Joining the basketball team was probably one of the best decisions I made. At the end of the day It doesn't really matter where you are its who your with and what you make of it. Lancaster has a lot of potential for all that.

The swansea university is a great university for sports. The courses like sports management and sports science are high ranked here. A club for every sport is available here. The sports village in swansea is one of the best in the UK. With an olympic length swimming pool and 7 tennis courts it is very hard to be unfit here. Everything is under a proper check so that everyone is happy and safe. Staff is available 24/7 for any emergencies or problems we face. This university has everything a student can ask for.
