The contact hours is less than expected, however you can attend advice & feedback hours which give you up to 2 hours more each week per module, you just have to be comfortable enough to approach a lecturer alone or in a group of other students. The class is taught in-class, but lectures are uploaded online (the slides and a recording) if the lecture is missed. You are expected to do your research and majority of learning alone, using library resources and jstor, each module will provide a reading list for each week so it is guided and you won't feel completely lost.

It was an expensive place to live for an accomodation without an en suite and quite a walk from campus. The rooms inside were quite nice and we had double beds, however the outside looked less pleasant. There were no issues of mold or dirt, it felt clean, and the wifi always worked well. I was never disturbed by other people being too noisy, the people around me were fairly quiet. My flatmates and I all spoke to each other and would go out together a lot, it wasn't an uncomfortable situation.

I wish there was some form of placement within first year

I have been out in a flat with 2, 40 year old men. Where the other girls I live with did not want to live with mature students, so I find it unfair on their behalf. It is in a very good location, quite close to town and local to shops and bus stops

One of the most beneficial aspects of my course was the opportunity to complete my internship at Rural Health Compass. During my internship, I worked closely with data relating to the mental health challenges faced by farmers in rural Scotland. This experience gave me a deeper understanding of the pressures within the farming industry and the impact these challenges have on individuals, families, and rural communities. The internship allowed me to develop important research, communication, and analytical skills by interpreting data and understanding real-life public health concerns. It also improved my confidence in presenting information and discussing sensitive social issues in a professional way. At the end of the internship, I created and presented a YouTube presentation that focused on the mental health crisis facing the farming industry in rural Scotland. In the presentation, I discussed how the government could provide better support for farmers and highlighted ways to improve mental health and wellbeing within rural communities. This experience was both rewarding and impactful because it allowed me to contribute to raising awareness about an important issue while applying the knowledge gained from my studies. Overall, the internship was a valuable experience that strengthened my academic learning, professional skills, and understanding of community health challenges.

Accessible lecturers, pedagogic

Easy access to campus, but not very clean and well maintained sometimes

One of the best aspects of my business computing BSc is the mix of business and IT subjects. which makes the course interesting and useful. The lectures are verry supportive, as they respond quickly through themes, outlook whenever I have questions or problems. And my course is that classes are spread across three days a week, which gives students extra time for independent study, par time jobs and extracurricular activities.

Bristol is a great city for students because it has a friendly atmosphere, good transport links, and many places to study, relax, and socialise. There are lots of restaurants, shops, and activities for students, and the city feels lively and so nice. Campus location is also good , all facilities are near by.

The best thing about my course is the way teachers explain the lessons. They use simple words and are very helpful when I have a problem. The class timing is also good, and I like that we can learn both in class and online. The only difficult part is that some lectures are very long. I would like more practical work so we can understand the topics even better

So good l really appreciate to this university management and professors

The course content is competent, the lecturers are well educated and most communicate well. Most are supportive and will help you to their best.

I like that it is kept clean by management, I like that they do regular maintenance when necessary, all the accommodation staff and security are always nice and pleasant which is important as they enter your living space. I think the only issues lie inside rooms as I’ve lived here for 2 years and every room I’ve received has cracking paint, stained carpets and loose carpets and previously I had keycard issues and had to carry a deadbolt key and key card for my room the whole year but I don’t believe it was entirely staff fault as they tried fixing the entry 3 times perhaps managements as they should’ve changed the entire door handle. The mail room is incredibly efficient and full of helpful staff. The main issue is wifi it randomly stops working at night or doesn’t work for WhatsApp. I do believe the rent is a bit high but not bad considering the trash and kitchen cleaning is handled by staff and the convenience of how close the accommodation is to campus

Love it

The best part of my course has been the quality of the lectures the teaching style is engaging and makes the content interesting and easier to understand. Lecturers clearly have a strong knowledge of their subject and put effort into delivering sessions in a way that keeps students involved. On the other hand, the course has at times felt disorganised, with information not always being communicated clearly or in advance. Deadlines, module structures and expectations could be made clearer from the outset, as uncertainty around these things can add unnecessary stress. Better organisation and more consistent communication from the course team would significantly improve the overall experience.

Best- interesting content and lecturers. Worst- the work load.
