Sort:Latest reviewsThoroughly enjoyed it, met some great friends and coping well with workload. Settled in well.
Overall I have had a great experience at university so far.
Teaching ranges hugely in quality. Course content appears mostly relevant, more so in later years of study. Lots of clubs and societies. Union not what it once was.
Excellent school. So glad I made a choice to study here. The professors are very approachable and friendly. The courses are very interesting and relevant to future careers. Extremely happy with the facilities, sport centre, and student union. Students are friendly and welcoming.
Some building are a little less modern and some lecturers are a bit bad, but overall the uni is very new and a great place. The courses are very god and the level of education is second to none.
It Is a good academic establishment located very centrally in glasgow. Professors are helpful and course choice is satisfactory. However The facilities are outdated and the library is not that great
It's a very friendly study environment with dedicated staff and students that care about constantly improving the student experience. The University understands the needs of students and the teaching is very good.
Friendly people. Excellent support from staff and fellow students. Great practical & computer lab facilities. On campus gym is fantastic and very cheap. Library is amazing; warm. bright, open 24hours for exams, serves hot food, has starbucks, drinks & food machines. Has an LGBT society, Strathclyde Women's Action Network and groups for many different nationalities to find people who observe similar customs (and are very welcoming of people who wish to learn more about different cultures). Fantastic University of Strathclyde Students Association which every year has an excellent president voted for by fellow students. The Union has many floors with theme nights, all night parties, debating, plays by the ReAct theatre group, ceilidhs, football on the big screens, drink promos & so much more. I lived in halls for 2 years and was a residence assistant, the accommodation is great and any issues raised are dealt with promptly. The RA's are on call from 5pm to 8am, and there is a night porter on call all night (with contact to the security team). Any student can call Nightline (similar to Childline or Silverline but for students). Each department also has multiple people that you can email if you need support or assistance. The university also has a disability support centre and can arrange for extra time in exams, different coloured paper, notes written in different fonts etc The university also has counselling support for students, you can get weekly counselling sessions lasting an hour each.
Strahy is a brilliant place to a student. The lecturers I have come across in my 3 years so far have all been enthusiastic and beyond helpful. The culture created by the uni is one that encourages learning, sharing and participation.
Very interesting and challenging academics with Professors and Lecturers from all over the world. The university is located in the city center of Glasgow where everything is at hands reach.
Strathclyde is a good uni, it has a lot to offer, if u're willing to work hard. I am only a freshman and so I can't say much of an overall experience, especially that the first year classes are very basic and general in the social sciences department. I have to say though that there is a lot of clubs, societies and possibilities to engage in the uni experience!
It really is a beautiful city to study. I do not know if I will stay here long term but so fR so good. I travelled from East London few years ago to As I have friends In Glasgow so I the. Decided on studying here also.
Classy uni full of classy people. Within easy reach of almost everything from shops, cafés to night clubs. Really enjoying my time here at the uni & accommodation is fantastic to. Would highly recommend
Not sure about this uni still in two minds about being here. I find my course ok but not as enjoyable as the chemistry we learned at school. I find 4 years in further education quite daunting.
This is a really excellent uni, I have really settled in nicely to student life. it is great. I would absolutely recommend strathclyde uni to many other students who wish to further there study at university.
This uni's is perfecto! Really like it here & really like my course I am studying. Having such a great time at uni & did not think I would enjoy it as much as I am. Way better than school.
Perfect location & really enjoying being a student. It can be tough but I am a firm believer that hard word pays of in the end. Hopefully this will when I land my dream job.

To be completely honest, I do not think this uni is any different from any other uni except different buildings & location. I have studied at Glasgow before & preferred this.
4.5
I have loved it. I need more Lab time though.
My favourite thing to do in the city is go to Gigs!
None thus far due to work commitments. But I have heard that the clubs and societies are okay.
I have a small double bed and en suite but the cost is too much per week.
