Staffordshire University is a reasonably good place to study, a very friendly campus with a great range of facilities. A more relaxed location than somewhere like Manchester or London. Improvements could include a more accessible way of booking support sessions with lecturers and the ability to access lecture PowerPoints in lectures.
Stoke on trent isn’t the nicest city but is reasonably cheap to rent in. The course itself does have some great modules but some could do with a bit more teaching rather than just given a word document to go through yourself.
Personally, I came here for the course because I was looking at other countries as my final choice but covid happened and I chose to come here and it all worked out so perfectly. I love the course, it's exactly what I wanted. I have access to such amazing facilities and the means to accomplish every dream of mine big and small. I really think the uni tries everything to support the students mentally, financially, spiritually, physically. They're always coming up with opportunities.I believe Staffordshire University is truly invested in the success of their students. One thing I would personally love to improve would be to giveaway food extra supplies that sometimes are binned.

Overall everything is great however, the times off classes arent the best as they are too spread out making it very inconvenant for students who have to commute.
The teachers are so helpful and are their for support when required . It could be improved by staff being more organised when it comes to releasing the pre reading days before lesson .
Staffordshire University is a good place to study because they provide a lot of support for student if they want it. However, sometimes when I'm in lecture it is hard to hear the lecturers and it can be quite uncomfortable to sit in lecture halls for a long period of time
The course is always open for improvement. The facilities and space can be improved also more components such as tailoring can be included or offered . The tutors are good, positive attitude to aid student improvement and confidence. The electronics can be improved to match the level and pace of the studies. Looking forward to our continued growth as a university.

I really enjoy my university and all the support that I receive. I just live really far from it, and this is the only thing that makes it less enjoyable
Its a great university, lots of support and encouragement. Relaxed and friendly environment.
Staffordshire University is great for its facilities such as library, work spaces, place to eat during the day but the communication with student support lacks. Especially for first year students and care leaver who are independently living I feel as though support is needed very much and it’s not given enough. I have been told that on many occasions that support is always there but when I have reached out to student support the response is always delayed or not been replied to. I am a 19 year old student trying to get my dream degree whilst trying to survive and lack of support that I got told I’d given and haven’t been given is a struggle. But all the facilities at staffs uni and the lecturers are great at what they do.
the best aspect stafford university is that they are diverse and are inclusive. They are supportive towards student by recommending services for support, academic tutors and lecturers support student
All round positive and welcoming feel, great lecturers and a positive environment to be in

The stafford campus is good and modern however students who are here miss the uni experience as the Stoke campus is very impressive. Parking can still cause stress at times as the overflow is so far away and adequate parking should be provided for student and staff on site. The cafe food is good however extortionate in price
The university and facilities are great, accessible and modern, but the system for booking skills labs is a bit lacking.
The facilities and staff are very cooperative and friendly, and teachers are great.
I don't live on campus but from what i've seen and experienced it's an amazing University to study at!
As an older student with four kids and a disabled husband I was so scared of returning to a learning environment. However the university and staff have been amazing and so supportive. I have been recently been diagnosed with dyslexia and anxiety and I could not ask for better support.
Best is the support, I feel I have had the best support within the course worst for me is the travelling

So far so good. A lot of student support.
Quite straightforward and a lot of opportunities for placement work.
