787 London South Bank University reviews

The best aspects are that we have guest lectures from people working in the industry, course hours are good and lectures are very productive and very helpful.

Staff don’t tell you much about what you should be doing outside of studies like placements etc.

My course is taught through a mix of both online and in-person which personally I think is great as this provides a lot of flexibility. The course I am studying now allows me to email my lectures and get a response quite quickly. However the placement for this course did not go as expected as we were given our placement a week before going which meant that we couldn’t prepare adequately as we thought placements were sorted out back in September as we were due to go out in February. Some placements where almost more than 2 hours away without traffic which was traumatic to go to. Although my placement worked out for me as the school was fantastic but the journey time was not. Hoping next year will be better or that I can find my own placement.

The uni area in my opinion is extremely diverse and I do think it’s a very social uni with many societies and clubs. However the cost of living is so high but thanks to public transport it’s easier to live further away and travel. There are many areas to explore and travel to and is near London Bridge and other great landmarks through public transport. However not so sure about graduate emolument as I have not finished my degree.

Course is very good. I believe content is appropriate for the modules.

The course is detailed but deadlines to submit courseworks are short and little feedback is given over exam preparation.

It is located in the centre of London and is therefore easy to commute to and from the university.

The best thing about my course is the range of different topics that are covered . The worst thing about my course is that there aren’t many placement opportunities.

My university is a bus ride away from the London Bridge and London eye . It is also quite close to Borough Market so there are a lot of amazing places around my university

Very good facilities and excellent placement opportunities, although location is mostly depending on luck.

I struggle so much over the past two years and have failed. I’ve struggled to find myself within the engineering community. I’ve enjoyed the online & blending learning but I’ve experienced a death during the pandemic and hardly received any type of support. From this experience I’ve learnt that the networking I had done wasn’t beneficial enough to help support my extenuating circumstances and now I know how to help myself much more. Course aren’t long enough to learn this material, use all of your contact with lecturers and the engineering team in general.

Your tutor will leave you alone as long as you need you just need to reach out to them. You need to get work placement by yourself.

I enjoy my course and I have mostly excellent lecturers. However, online learning has made me like it a little bit less

It’s proximity to Central London and the easy access to public transport makes it an ideal location. However living in student halls is not so comfortable as it gets quite noisy due to the vehicles passing.

I like the location the most and the least. We’ve got easy access to anywhere but it’s also quite noisy. Also the facilities are quite old and in dire need of an upgrade
