Nursing Studies Hons (Child) BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

The students at our university are the most important people on campus. Our university is very good at putting the students first and allowing them to have their say. Furthermore, there is a multitude of opportunities for staff and students to work together making the campus feel more like a community. I myself have worked with the Comms; Events; People and Wellbeing teams allowing me to form close bonds with facility.

Improvements to the buildings are appriciated, some buildings feel disconnected from. Their old outside appearance, however I still would recommend the campus as one of the more good looking/appealing ones.

Applied Psychology BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

The staff are great! They are always there for support and I never feel like I do not have someone to approach when struggling. Having a personal tutor is so beneficial as well, as you always have them to talk to whether it be about your studies, personal matters or career paths! I also love that it is all one campus so no need to run between building to building making it to classes as they all link in some way. The student wellbeing service is also a great support system in place, the counselling service is extremely helpful and an amazing thing to have built into the university.

Nursing Studies (Adult) BSc

University rating (5)

What would make it easier is if there was more seating for eating lunch and studying, as when it’s times that majority of classes are finished it’s almost impossible to get anywhere

Games Development BSc (Hons)

University rating (3)

Invest long term as even smaller institutions have invested around £500 million and above. Look to establish better partnerships, attain research grants and wider donation pool to fund these and also work to champion a masterplan to other stakeholders to invest inwards. Maker GCU as a key economic player and that our campus is vital component to Glasgow and the local area. A well invested masterplan that radically changes the current campus can create purpose built new buildings and extensive refurbishments that will tailor to every students needs and also build on areas that the university is known for.
