A great experience studying my final year of the BA, with professional and welcoming staff and lecturers.
the environment is very welcoming and the lecturers care about your passion for the topic and are always willing to help and provide support.
I like, the student life that we have, i’m not feeling busy also if I have assignment or exams because they’ll let us know and explain all in details before 2 months for the big exams and assignment, so there’s time for plan, organize, don’t get stressed and do all that is needed with time, revision and without getting in trouble on submitting or without doing mistake on it, because the time is enough for make a good assignment or exam .
I really like the campus environment, everything is so nice and clean!

First gen student


It is really clean, quiet and comfortable. Friendly atmosphere. Good lectures. Only disadvantage is the parking space.
The university has been amazing this year when things have been tough. They have gone beyond to help support me through some difficult times. Very friendly and a safe place and no distractions to get work done. Library is also great place to study
I have enjoyed my time since I started studying here. My course specifically gives us a studio space, which is one of the greatest features a student could ask for. I enjoy the open-mindedness of the staff and students, and everyone is friendly and understanding. A thing I found myself quite disliking is the fact that the staff is not always truthful when it comes to feedback; it might be because I am used to another way of giving feedback from my previous place of education, but I find it annoying when the staff says that something is ”amazing”, only for the final marks to not show that. Overall, the experience has been great and I grew a lot in the span of two years. I do not regret studying here.
The uni has great facilities for the engineering aspect however the canteen is very expensive and not a viable option for many students
It is a great place to study as it is not over full of people and you can get to know your Lecturers more
Best - lots of studio and workshop space and lots of access to it Worst - parking in the city is difficult for student commuting
Ketchup was bad tbh wish it was better. Apart from that the uni life is going well
.
Facilities are fantastic. Management is terrible. Rooms being double booked, software not working, lecturers booked for two different lectures simultaneously so one has to be moved, no remote learning, poor communication. It's Been an extremely frustrating few months.
Great university, with great facilities
Campus is nice, very smart part of Swansea.
It is in a gorgeous location with very good support from the lecturers and decent student life.
It has all the support available for students
It’s a great place to study because it is a comfortable atmosphere and the class sizes are small making it easy to get to know your peers and tutors. The only problems I’ve had while studying is problems with the internet and design software.
All facilities are great and as student I have access on most of them. All lectures are very helpful. I have no bad experiences during my study on uni.


I love campus as its a ten minute walk from town if I need anything and the scenic and modern contrast of the facilities is excellent. having some lectures in the older sections of the UNI but also getting to use fabulous cutting edge technology like the immersive room really gives me all aspects of intresting UNI life. My flat is lovely with me making some life long friends by living with them and the SU having regular events for students often having free food or great communal atmosphere
My course is beyond my expectations I think there's a great level of work that's given to us and there's always more to do that can further enhance what they set, with extra bits online. there's a varied range of subjects covered that all lead towards me being a better Actor. The way the course is structured all classes lead towards a same significant goal intertwined with each other that I don't expect. We are always encouraged to watch 2nd and 3rd Year productions wich always shock me in ways I don't expect. They always encourage us to be different and push boundaries of what we think is possible being free reign on our schedule bit having firm deadlines and repercussions for if we don't meet them.
my Hqlls are great I think they are excellent demonstration of what UNI halls should be they are recently done up with plenty of shelf and cupboard room with a nice feel and aesthetic. there are minor problem like I don't like our table and chairs as they're quite big and don't leave alot of space when 4-8 people are trying to cook at once. but other rooms have nice benches that go under the table and are excellent for communal living. the shower is often blocked and sometimes overflows at the bottom and my sink does sometimes leek but as a guy I don't really see these things as major issues. But to to the credit of the UNI there is 24/7 staff that operates on campus and helps with faults such as this and have quickly managed issues similar in the past. I am having issues with the parking team currently but a 30£ fine could be alot worse
