Great

Blend of both online and in person

All good

Placements need more hands in

I love my placements and the teachers are great

Although the course is difficult the staff are very helpful

The 9th floor didn’t really get used

The placement preparation needs to be improved

The best aspect of my course is the practical experience, especially my first placement in BRI cardiology, which improved my clinical skills and confidence. My APT’s individual online meeting was very helpful.

As a first-year FinTech student, one of the best aspects of my course is how interesting and relevant it is to real-world finance and technology. I enjoy learning about topics like digital payments, blockchain, and financial data. The course is taught through a mix of lectures, seminars, and some online materials, which makes learning flexible. Lecturers are generally supportive and provide useful feedback. However, one of the worst aspects is that the course can be challenging, especially when dealing with technical topics like programming or data analysis. Sometimes the workload feels heavy, and there can be limited contact hours, which means I need to study a lot independently. Overall, the course is rewarding but requires good time management and effort.

The classes, Lectures, Labs and Tutorials are all great. ive learned a lot just from the labs because im a visual learner. the Personal Tutor is a massive issue; you have to request time from the tutor against what I assume are 100 other students, and the tutor only ever gives out 5 time slots every 3 weeks. I tried booking a timeslot, but the way the Tutor responded was so confusing I didn't know if I booked the time properly or not and haven't since.

Wallscourt Park is a very nice place to stay for any major that's on campus, especially Engineering majors. the only issues that you experience constantly are Wi-Fi and maintenance. the Wifi is really good... when you're in your room, once you leave your room, the Wifi turns 50/50 and in the Living room wifi is horrible. there are times when you can't connect to wifi and have to connect to the campus' wifi, eduroam. then there's maintenance; once a month or so they'll do maintenance checks on your rooms. they'll highlight things that need fixing and then may or may not fix them. For example, my window has a gap in the seal, so whenever someone smokes outside, the fumes travel into my room. I asked them to fix this around the start of the second semester but haven't done it yet (it's March; I told them in Jan). Despite this, maintenance is often very helpful; for example, my door wouldn't shut properly, and they fixed it within a week. another issue I had was that my cabinet self broke, and they fixed it the next day. so maintenance is very 50/50.
