Northumbria University, Newcastle

PhD in Leadership and Human Resource Management

University rating (5)

I first studied at Northumbria University, London campus in 2015 during an important stage of my life while raising a young family and building a new path for my career. What made a difference for me at Northumbria was the supportive environment and the programme's flexibility, which allowed me to balance study with family responsibilities. Studying there helped me rebuild confidence and recognise my strengths. I graduated with a degree in Business Administration and later continued developing my professional and academic journey in London through community work, leadership roles, and further study. I returned to Northumbria to continue my academic journey, earning a Master's degree in International Project Management, and I am now pursuing doctoral research. The London campus has a strong sense of community, with students supporting one another and staff being approachable and encouraging. The university also provides opportunities for students to develop leadership skills and participate in initiatives beyond the classroom. For me, Northumbria University is more than a place of study. It has been a place where I have developed confidence, built networks, and continued to progress in both my professional and academic life.

There are lots of good lecture theatres and a good amount of additional vocational study areas, such as the OT kitchen and mock wards. We have guest speakers in to ensure that there is a varied information type.

University of Gloucestershire

Criminology and Sociology - BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

I attend UOG Francis Close Hall campus and it's so incredibly inspiring. It's a great oldy-worldy historical site and it was really the deal-breaker for me choosing UOG; although my course mates and I were severely let down when we were told we would have to move to Oxstalls campus in Gloucester... we managed to get the union involved but only managed to get it pushed back a year for us, all new students in September for social science will be in Oxstalls and won't get to experience the beauty of FCH. Such a shame. Despite this, the facilities are amazing, staff are equipped with great knowledge and are all incredibly friendly. All students are friendly and light-minded, it's a great environment to study in and socialise. I commute so I cannot speak on the social side of student accommodation and/or going out, but as a commuter it meets all my needs! I really recommend studying here, the lecturers know what they're talking about, and are amazing at illustrating theories and concepts in ways that make sense.

Middlesex University

What is good is i always find solutions to my problems when i go to unihelp, what is worst is that it sometimes the marking criterias are not fair when there is some group projects, you can be the best but not have the best mark for example.

Bristol, UWE

Mechatronics Engineering - BEng (Hons)

University rating (4)

Studying at University of the West of England is a good experience overall. One of the best aspects is the focus on practical learning and employability, with many courses offering projects and placement opportunities that prepare students for real jobs. The campus facilities, including the library and study spaces, are modern and comfortable. Bristol is also a lively student city with plenty of things to do. However, accommodation in Bristol can be quite expensive, and communication from some departments could be improved, especially regarding deadlines and feedback. Overall, it’s a supportive and diverse environment, particularly welcoming for international students.

Northumbria University, Newcastle

Psychology - BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

The student union prices are very reasonable and good area for doing work or socialising. I also enjoy the landscape of the uni with the mix between modern and old school. While staying at Trinity Square accommodation it was hard to commute for social gatherings however that is partially my own fault.
