Hi there, I'm Luna.
I'm a bit like an AI, except instead of making pictures of people with 16 fingers, I can help you find the perfect course and uni.
Would you like some help in your search?
Our collection of real, honest student reviews of unis and courses is the largest in the UK, and helps you make well-informed decisions about your future. Student reviews also form the basis of our annual Whatuni Student Choice Awards (WUSCAs), which highlight great work carried out by institutions for their students.
One of the best aspects of my university experience has been the supportive learning environment. The lecturers are knowledgeable and approachable, and the university provides good facilities and resources that help students succeed academically. I have also enjoyed meeting people from different backgrounds, which has made my experience more diverse and interesting. One area that could be improved is providing more opportunities for practical industry exposure, such as site visits, internships, or networking events with professionals. This would help students connect their academic knowledge with real-world applications and better prepare for their future car
The sporting teams and training is really good. In a great city for nightlife. The university gym could be bigger with less cardio machines.
I havent been made aware of any union. There no 'campus life' apart from an occasional event organised by lecturers. The facilities are okay but nothing special, the library is tiny, and the microphone stands seems to dwindle in numbers more week by week. However the equipment used for practice and studying is often of high standard, however there is little to no IT support here as all IT is down through the English offices
I personally think the prices on food in the cafeteria and shops on campus are exaggerated, and the should be put down on some products, besides i think markeaton campus needs a little makeover, it looks good but old now that we got the new cavendish campus, even kedleston looks more modern, other than that, there should also be more and better self study spaces on markeaton, at the moment for self study i go in my regular default classroom at most, we need something like kedleston and cavendish, maybe 2-3 rooms next to the self study area downstairs (towards the road entrance) other than that i really like the campus it’s a calming place to study and work on our stuff, even britannia mill, personally i really like it, it has a special feel to it, doesn’t need any updates or anything it’s perfect, makes me feel like in the 1st year
There is nothing to be approved definitely the best university in the whole of Birmingham
I think the uni is very complete. I feel safe there and I know the student union is there for me. The international student life is also very rich.
Really enjoyable place to study in a really good part of the uk. Great injections to industry with very supportive staff
i love the facilities at this uni, the library and the teaching is great. there are many places for all types of students ,quiet or not, to go and the nightlife in the city is prety decent. it is quite affordable compared to other universitys close by. the societies are fantastic aswell. the university could improve on certain teaching aspects in the first year to ease us into how very independant it all is
The facilties are a great mix of places to study as well as relax with friends, from good quality libraries to department buildings with nice study spaces. Lovely location, close to nightlife with nice walking distances to the surrounding docks. The access to student wellbeing services could be improved so the help is there for more people who need it

It is a good university with a modern academic staff, which is quite adequate for the department I chose.
PROS - The university has been absolutely stellar at providing opportunities to those who put in that extra effort. - Support, particularly the maths gym provided by the uni for ...
