I am studying BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science at UWE Bristol as an international student. Overall, my experience has been positive. The labs and library are well-equipped, making it easy to study and do practical work. The campus feels welcoming, with nice green areas and easy access between buildings. Staff and student support are helpful when I need advice or guidance. The best part of my experience has been the practical sessions, which really help me understand what I learn in lectures. I also enjoy meeting people from different countries and cultures—it makes studying here more interesting. One area that could improve is communication and administration, as sometimes processes are slow. There could also be more social events on campus to help students connect. Despite these small issues, UWE Bristol is a great place to study, with strong facilities, good support, and a friendly environment for all students.

Really good university, very student focused and inclusive. The University is constantly making an effort to make its graduates stand out. More campus events to increase student engagement and campus activities.

Extremely well situated university the accommodations around campus are great. The student support system in place helps students in times of need and you never truly feel alone.

Overall average experience

I think the university has a lot of good societies and clubs for students to join, making it easier to meet people and make friends. All the lecturers and staff are really engaged in our learning, they want to support us to do our best and try to make adjustments to the course/assignments where they can to help us. I do think the buildings could be better for people with disabilities, such as more automatic doors, ensuring lift maintenance is a priority and putting card scanners for doors in a accessible location. I also think it would be good if there was options to pick up extra modules or tutoring for those that need help with English or want extra help/studies on certain elements of their course or want to learn something new on the side.

Environment and lecturers are very friendly, easy to understand and supportive . Technology provided is very easy to access Worst aspects are we have to wait 2 hours for our next lecture

Best parts: access to loads of learning materials Worst parts: not much free activities, communication with student union isn’t great so I tend to miss out on activities which impacts my social life and mental health Also the school doesn’t provide support with finding a placement

There's no "best" parts about this place. Staff have no experience in dealing with individuals, they hardly have any professionalism. Members of staff have shouted at neurodivergent students when older students become violent. Members of the "support" team have signed documents on behalf of students before telling them to say it was alright for them to do that so fraud. The mental health team have played with several students before they return to their course for another year. Students have been assaulted by others and staff attempt to sweep it under rugs Students were previously banned from utilising headphones to listen to music or from doing work. (Apparently strides itself of being a creative university) Students get used by staff under the guise of "experience" Students experience courses being cancelled multiple times, then get letters sent saying please come in to enrol on this date..... Then the "university" offers no assistance.

NTU offers the best student support, academic staff are already available to answer module related questions and library staff and resources are available 24/7. The social life at NTU is equally great and lots of freebies for students
