Terrible. I would never recommend anyone study Mental Health Nursing here. It may be they are better in other courses, but my course was poorly run and taught me very little. I was extremely disappointed.
Overall, it's been great. I really enjoy my course it's contemporary and relevant, unlike some of the English courses at more prestigious universities. My tutors are nothing but passionate and supportive. The facilities are lacking, as is the union. However don't allow that to stop you coming here, you're always being pointed in the right direction.
The biggest piece of advice would be to enjoy yourself but to work steadily and constantly. Don't let final year workload to take you by surprise. Take advantage of the facilities and the knowledge of your lecturers. Take advantage of Edinburgh, don';t forget there is life outside of the bubble you create yourself.
Everything was good apart from an experience with one lecturer who has no interest in adapting his teaching methods to provide the best for the students. The careers lecturers are good. We get bombarded with emails regarding careers which can be annoying but useful. Parking is an issue for anyone who travels in from home, it is £1 per hour to work or parking miles away is a bit of an inconvenience (rant over). It is worth putting effort in and getting to know people and you get out what you put in.
I really enjoying it, the biggest strength in my point of view is the clubs and societies. Life advice for all new students here is to join a club and society and get stuck in
Good university, defo choose us! Go for it! 5/5 in most areas especially socially . The course is ok.
We don't really have a student union here, but other than that everything is good. Accommodation is over priced for what it is, but we have great facilities, good job prospects after I graduate too.
I'm confident that I will get a job within 5-8 months of graduation. Computing is a popular field at the moment. The teaching is good as are the facilities. Join a club when you get here, we throw awesome parties.
Network- make friends and support each other. Lectures and extra classes are good but friends on your course can explain things better.
I am enjoying my uni experience on the whole but I feel that support services could be improved by having them available at every campus, as opposed to them all at one place. If you are thinking of coming to uni you have 3 opinions, work hard, have a social life and sleep, unfortunately you can only pick 2. The experience alone is worth the debt.
I am enjoying my time at napier throughly- living in Edinburgh is particularly good. As for studies if you're willing to work and do what you need to. The university will support you if you struggle. The accommodation for first year is great.
There is a lot to do such as choosing modules and handing in work before deadlines so it is very important to get your dates and times right. Give yourself plenty of time to do the work. Check your emails regularly.
The uni is amazing, there are so many opportunities to get involved with, plus they help you find work. The facilities are quite good and there is a 24 hour computer centre, which is fantastic. My advice is to do it, its made me groe as a person and choose my field carefully
It was worth putting the effort in to improve employability, work hard and enjoy the outcome.
I have to admit that I expected more from this university, the level of teaching is good, but sometimes I feel like I am just another student and teachers don't pay attention to me.
Be ready for a loads and loads of work. That is probably the only disadvantage of being a uni student. I love the freedom which the university offers you. I hope to see ya all at this uni.
A fun and diverse university, where you can meet loads of interesting people And study something which you are passionate about with the help of excellent tutors
It was a good experience to be part of Napier University. I enjoyed my courses, especially in the third year when I could focus on what I want to do in the future. The lecturers are helpful even though at some points they could try to be friendlier.
