No

I may have just secured a job and there are always notices about vacancies, plus student support and career services available!

Taught and supported by the most meticulous and supporting staff

For our course, we have what we need - at the moment we are not able to use all due to covid if we are not in the area obviously but we have been given online resources to support us in this extra special academic year.

Feel very supported

Yes

Currently it’s online and is quite difficult to keep up with, parts can be confusing and the support is minimal.

They’re great and i imagine in a non-covid environment they can be enjoyed but they have been majorly closed for this year

Throughout Covid they have sent emails of support but actual advice and physical support from lecturers has been minimal

No

My lecturers and tutors are amazing. They always help solve issues and give great advice when needed!

Yes

Course accredited by the IMBS which is great help. Placement years availibale and employability seminars

Like that now the lectures are recorded (if the lecturer can manage to use the recording systems), and in final year, class sizes are small. online support during the coronavirus was good. Lecturers get to know thier students well too. Didnt like how all lectures were delivered as 3 hour blocks, which is impossible to concentrate for. lecture material wasnt always availiable before class. Not enough practical skills taught in year 3. Huge amount knowlegde in certain modules was piled on, but not really showed how to apply in real life or in work. Inconsistency in how modules are taught, some better organised than others.

Very good and active SU, facilities on frenchay campus are good. Glendide campus SU is tiny and lacking in facilities

Extremely expensive. Took 6 months rent and no refunds despite not being able to live there for months because of coronavirus. Rooms nice, but price isn't justified. location is perfect however. Constant issues with water provision throughout the year which were never resolved promptly

Lab facilities are okay. lecture theatures can be a bit hit or miss. Most are good. The library is far too small for the number of students using it, especially in assessment periods and exams where all study spaces are taken by 10am. The library is also pretty dirty and alot of the computers are a bit knackered and outdated. some floors have undergone renovation which greatly improved the space. Money seems to have been spent on specific departments like maths, buisness, engineering etc., but biomedical science seems to be missing out as alot of the facilities and books are old. Alot of reading material for the course has very limited supply in the libary, although alot of books are availiable online. Food on campus is incredbily expensive and very average

No. Although there is a retail park nearby with supermarket, there is nothing else as it is next to the motorway and a ring road. buses into the city centre and frequent however

Very good variety

personal tutors are allocated, however dont reply to emails and timetabled sessions with them are unhelpful and few and far between. feedback on work has become far better in the last year

I do media!
