The teaching atmosphere is very good
People really good
Excellent library and quiet study environment
Fantastic university with great support available especially for final year students but equally all the way through. The placement year experiences are fantastic and a great way to get everyone into the industry.

Extremely supportive wellbeing team. Lecturers are extremely engaging in comparison to other universities. Student life is limited due to location but there is a huge community feeling regardless.

I applied to Harper Adams because of its renowned academic reputation, exceptional facilities and the diverse opportunities available for personal and intellectual growth! Attending Harper Adams has led me to achieve my educational goals and successfully accomplish a graduate job with my previous placement employer!

Really great student support that everybody can access with a great library but you are charged for printing. The drinking culture is very intense. Lecturers are really friendly and helpful.
It’s a great place to study have really enjoyed my three years here!
Harper's biggest fault is it lacks the general general 'nice to haves' bigger unis may have (this is most apparent in the library, which is quite basic with poor computer facilities). However, what makes harper amazing and a great place to learn is a) the lecturers. you truly are a name and not a number at Harper, with lecturers always prioritising the undergrad students and giving us support and b) the connections you'll make. Especially in agriculture, Harper is by far the most respected ag university. It could definetly be improved with some more work on it's student facilities, but I've really enjoyed my time at Harper.
Harper Adams is a great place to study and I absolutely love it here, the harper farm is a great addition to make learning more applied and lecturers continually apply teaching to the real world which is great. Student life is great however the Students union is sadly no longer run by current student voice and opinion and is terrible. The students are the ones who make it good fun on a night out whereas the SU security are horrible to students making the overall experience unenjoyable. If this doesn’t change ASAP I would much rather go to an alternative university such as Newcastle where the learning is just as good with a better social life.

The options the farm provide to gain new experiences and earn cash is something not many universities can provide. The use of the farm for teaching is great as what is being taught can often be seen first hand on the farm or in the fields rather than on a computer screen or a book. The beautiful countryside rural feel around the university is great for people who have grown up in the countryside and don’t want to be in a built up city, or those who just want to spend time in the countryside. As other courses have now been introduced to the university Agriculture may not feel like it’s the main focus as much as it has been but this has no affect on the students. There is a wide range of support available to all students from career support, learning by support, mental health support and any other support a student may need.
