All great
It's a great place to study because the lectures and lecturers are really intuitive and helpful and the resources are amazing. For me, I can't think of any improvements other than the quit area to study is usually very busy and is never really that quiet. Probably one of the best decisions I've made to push myself into my chosen field.
Overall Ulster University provides a great space for learning both inside and outside lectures, with amazing student support and a wonderful campus in Belfast that provides plenty of facilities and areas for students
I am particularly impressed by the student support available; wellbeing is repeatedly emphasised and there is a real sense that the staff genuinely care about all of the students. The facilities across campus are also very useful, particularly the library service, which provides online to a wide range of academic materials. The location of the campus is also a highlight. The only negative aspects are the method of marking attendance and the fact that the student ID cards are unable to unlock the doors to some rooms despite being designed partly for this purpose.
High level facilities and many excellent places for individual study. Another sports facility within campus would be useful.
Best aspect - support after bereavement student wellbeing are very easy to work with as well as lecturers being understanding Worst- small amount of female toilets, sometimes hard to get into study spaces
Best: student support and location Worst: library facilities are limited due to restricted space, not even seats with adequate facilities
It’s handy that they let us stay in the library overnight, but sometimes we can hear the student bar while we’re studying. Other than that it’s been grand
It’s a good place to study as the lecturers are very approachable. They’re easy to contact and the workload isn’t too bad. I would say to improve would be for deadlines to be spaced out a bit more, as well as there to be more facilities for study rooms as they can be booked up very fast
Alternative learning methods and teaching methods could be considered by some lecturers as I've had multiple experiences where I've went up to them to say that all this terminology is new and I've no background in the subject and they've basically replied by spouting unknown terminology in my face without any help
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My teacher's are helpful, and supportive. Food around university is expensive and food provided in canteen isn't always the nice.
Although the canteen provides many different options for food, the quality is less than acceptable, leaving most students to choose from more expensive options. The support from student wellbeing and faculty, however, are exceptional.
New building is depressing to walk through. Bare concrete and echoy classrooms
Bigger SU, more food variety in SU
It’s a lively place study
The student support and career support given to students on my course is exceptional and well organised.
Modern


Budgeting seems to be a problem at times.
a lot of the work is personal study at home but thankfully the uni is open most of the time
