I like the fact this it a smaller university where the classes are small and it’s somewhat easy to make friends with other courses. Personally i think the university could improve the student life a bit more by not putting students of the same course in the same accommodation flat. With small classes this makes it difficult to easily make friends from other courses and can be overwhelming.
I have felt extremely disappointed with my value for money due to COVID. I believe we should either be given a free extended year to gain more experience with living grants as usual or a refund as I feel we have missed out on a lot and being in year 3 in a Film & TV degree, we should at least have 5 or 6 finished film pieces under our belt, but we only have one!! I think what the University offers in services are outstanding, there are so many opportunities to grab. For me, my personal highlights are the extra courses in Adobe and the Welsh course I have managed to get onto as well as my course. I am going to miss Uni when I leave next year!
The classes are small, so the teaching feels much more personal.
I really love the university. It has an amazing campus,the teachers are the greatest that can be.they really help us to understand our modules and give us great advice. The staff is amazing. Everytime I needed something they helped me a lot.i can say is the best university that can be honestly

In my opinion there are some great lecturers, but the campus and other supports are not very good, I'm afraid.
Top class facilities in the Construction Wales Innovation Centre (CWIC). Opportunity for work and experience in the industry. The library in the forum is great for studying, set over two floors with both individual and group work spaces, along with different seating arrangements. Student support is a little lacking- the facilities and organisations are there, they just don't announce fully how to access these.
Best aspects-new building, lots of space, get to mix with other courses Worst aspects- some rooms still feel like an office
The bad thing for me is that the campus is too far from where I live. It is better if they could provide some books for the courses,if not for free at least at a cheap price.

They have a relatively small campus, but modern and comfortable. Unfortunately, they do not offer free parking for students. The student service team does a great job.

Everything was at the highest standards while studying at the UWTSD university. In campus there are places to have a lunch and make a tea. Water tank available at every floor. Staff are very helpfull and always smiling. We have receved nice presents offered by the uni, as cups, and t-shirts and bags, verryyyy pleasant. I will miss a lot our tutor who were always there to help us, in a very possitive attitute. I wish I could live this experience again. The best of wishes for all.
The location is excellent as there's accomodation surrounding the entire area and it's right in the centre next to all necessary shops. Dynevor campus is a great place to study for creatives, but I feel the timetables could use some improvement and those who apply should have more access to student parking in the vicinity.
I do not stay on campus so cannot comment on Student Union or Student Life. Facilities are excellent. Always good and timely communication from lecturers and programme managers regarding course issues, as well as taught content. Easy to access online content, which is always made available in plenty of time. Excellent library services.

It will be nice to have more carrier meetings for the students and support if they want to find or start a new job. Overall- great helpful and supportive staff


I like that the class is small so we all know each other. I think it could be improved by not having most of the course participants share a flat
Lecturers are amazing and can’t be improved on
Wi-Fi keeps flacking out
