None
It is very practical, hands on and approachable experience.
Fairly easy.

I really enjoy Qmu and my course. I much prefer living in town than on campus. There is more to do there.
Great sport facilities on campus. Eg modern gym. However not a big enough washing facility.
Each students is provided wih a personal academic tutor (PAT)
Good food but not a lot of interesting events.
Edinburgh always has something interesting going o. Such as shows at the playhouse.
Haven't joined any because they are not very appealing. Musselburgh is also a bit out of the way.
Classes are spread out nicely through out the week. Two days off.
QMU has great career area in the uni and a high percentage of graduates who go straight into a job.
Great modern halls. Always warm. However quite expensive. Also not a great common room area.
I do feel like I should have taken part in more events but perhaps at the same time, LCM could do more so in the way of providing more things for students to do.
The facilities and equipment are kept to a high standard with Steinway pianos in almost every room. Keep in mind though that these pianos are “designed by Steinway” and are not made by Steinway themselves which is misleading marketing on LCM’s part! The facilities desk also allows students to store their instrument there, however it would be a bonus if LCM could provide lockers or another storage room to keep other belongings to help take the physical load of students, many of whom have to carry around instruments and other equipment with them all day.

The SU could be a lot more forward in terms of their interaction with students. Obviously this is a rather small conservatoire so, in effect, the SU is also small but they still don’t do enough work even relative to their size. The SU should hold events and activities to take part in which cover many different aspects, at the moment it is entirely focused on music and sports only.
Leeds is an amazing city because of the music scene where everything is buzzing. I regularly go to gigs and the leisure centre to play sports. There are plenty of shops and museums to visit as well.
Societies are mainly sport-based and all take place in the leisure centre next to LCM. There are no sports teams within the societies, they are more like drop-in sessions which last about an hour long where you can go and play badminton or football. Because of the lack of variation in the societies, I have not joined any. There needs to be much more variation in the societies they offer.
I personally like how LCM is a place where all different types of musicians come together where you can explore each other’s’ creative abilities. In terms of the lectures, classes can be too large which means there is less one-to-one interaction with your tutor. A few problems with the teaching I have picked up on is how certain points are made but not contextualised so it can be quite hard to understand parts of a topic. Being on a combined course also meant that I have lost out on one-to-one individual lessons on a specialist study instrument which is a shame.
There is not much direct support in helping students find work but I am sure if I actively seek help there will be someone who can offer advice. University is a big step so they expect you to work quite independently and so will not necessarily hand everything to you on a plate.
Student accommodation does not provide good value at all. The costly rent we had to fork out only covered the bare basics: a bedroom big enough to fit a small bed and a chair. On top of the high fees, we still had to pay extra for laundry facilities. The reception is also extremely unorganised with handling with mail, it can take up to a week for them to process incoming mail and the staff refuse to search for your package even if you know it has arrived.
The University is great with many facilities available, however they should improve the gym which is a bit dodgy. The course I'm doing is really interesting and hard but I feel comfortable with my lectures. The city is lively and sometimes very busy. You can spend a great time at leeds beckett uni.
The teaching is really, well structured with high amount of course materials ( printed off lecture notes and additional reading). There are some learning space available but most of time full. The uni is modern, with everything you need. The support services is helpful and always willing to help you.
Good facilities, but library always busy and overcrowded and no computers available.
Good large social area, allows events to get to know other students.
Shopping, not overly busy, meet up with friends and family.
Good communication and relationships with the teachers.
Depending on your work you do and placements.
Safe, comfortable, en suite staff on site 24h/7days.
