Great experience, lots of contact time and extra curricular potential is brilliant. Lots of opportunities and lots of industry application. Location is great and nearby bigger cities
Course is well put together and Chartered institute of marketing approved
Secured placement for next year, lots of industry practice and presentations which helps with job seeking
Fun, safe, learned a lot and got really involved in student life. Very adaptable to change and very invested in every student individually. They have a lot going on for such a small school and I can't wait to see them grow.
Could be better but it's such a small uni that the don't have as much as bigger ones
Very helpful
Lever tone can get involved and be creative
LOL
I was captain of the cheer squad
Mostly interesting with good teachers
People in America think I went to school at Buckingham Palace and are impressed
Got my own bathroom!
Jobs been offered already Course misrepresented and unsupported - lack of personal tutor and some lecturers unhelpful SU hugely supportive - advice, employment, etc and providing brilliant support to students to run and improve clubs and societies Accommodation mixed but fine. Great community spirit Library brilliant, many online resources Support from SU brilliant, support from uni not great - lack of personal tutor, course help, I slipped through the net - lack of attendance, mixed grades, etc.
The university seems to be a lot more focussed on financial aspects rather than quality of education. Surprisingly loads of internationals are being accepted obviously that pay full fees. However, the quality of studies are rather low. In particular, the theory when engaging with students are not covered in depth, lack of critical evaluation. Students work on their own with lack of guidance.
A lot of computers provided, however, they are retarted. Quite good library resources.
Rather lack of despondence in students' problems.
Is quite alright, but nothing special in particular. No superior activities that would be very engaging.
The university is located in very small, boring rural town (Hatfield). The quality of lifestyle here is very low. The only plus os that is 25min away from London by train.
I wanted to sign up for a couple of societies this year. No action was taking place there, just the entry fee.
Too little theory covered in lectures. No personal guidance or tutoring.
I have a degree that includes placement year. When choosing this type of studies, the university advertises that students tend to get placements in well known companies, however, the university is not helping to find the placement opportunities, not even talking about the advertised famous companies. Also, the university is not recognised as high standard institution, thus job perspectives may be lower when compared to other universities.
The prices are high compared to the quality. Also, the contracts are 3-4 months longer that needed for the actual attendance of the course, which are not possible to cancel earlier. I had to deal a lot regarding the accommodation in the university, it was very unpleasant situation. Sadly, it can be seen how the university id focused on financial advantages, not students' interests...
The University lifestyle is great with lots of beaches, but held back by the poor teaching and lecturers focusing on research rather than students. The students' union gives good opportunities for employability but is limited in vision.
It is a wonderful learning experience and really enables you to grow as a person during your time here. There are an abundance of opportunities in Newcastle, from shopping to a day at the beach. It is a city like no other.
The library at the University is 24/7 with floors for different areas, it is a great easy access facility.
Support from staff and students is paramount at the university, they can never do enough to help.
Great area to chill after university - reasonable food and drink prices also.
Couldn't be better, never a dull moment
Endless amounts of clubs and societies on offer, from exercise based societies to debating, they have it all.
Excellent support is provided through the entire university experience. There are endless study abroad and placement opportunities with guidance from support staff at all times.
Accommodation is modern and well maintained, with only a short walk to university and town.
Great city - has everything you need & nightlife is top notch. University - settled in quickly and loved every minute so far. Can't see myself heading home upon graduating.
Great facilities, however, there can be times I struggle to find a computer! Especially around exam times.
Great city. Everything you need is in walking distance and the locals are a friendly bunch.
Loads to choose from.
Relatively good standard. 3 star rating due to the price, and the price has only went up year on year.
It Is a good academic establishment located very centrally in glasgow. Professors are helpful and course choice is satisfactory. However The facilities are outdated and the library is not that great
My university experience has been fantastic from the start! The facilities are brilliant with fully equipt lecture theatres, a three story library and thousands of online resources that students can take advantage of! There are on site cafes and restaurants throughout as well as an on site student bar when a coffee just wont cut it!
The university has recently updated all of it's computer facilities and installed wifi and hotspot areas around the campus, there are computers all around the librar as well as computer labs that are openly accessible from 6AM to midnight for those deadline crunchers!
The lecturers and tutors operate an open door policy! There is always someone that can aid in anything you may be struggling with, as well as additional services dedicated to disabled students, financial centre, LGBT and mature student support services. Whatever you need help with, there is someone on hand to assist you!
The student union has the advantage of an on site student bar that offers great deals on drinks and food as well as putting on great events throughout the year! A real addition to student life (Just watch out for Karaoke night! ;) )
Wrexham has a wide variety of bars and clubs within the town as well as shopping centre, cinema, bowling alley and several restaurants and takeaways!
If you can't find a club/ society you fancy then just start your own! The University Facebook page is a great page to meet other students and find people with similar interests to yourself! During my time I established the Business Society and took part in great fundraising and business events including a CIPD sponsored night and establishing work placements for our students to obtain real life experience of the business world!
My experience with the Business School has inspired me to persue a career as a lecturer within the university! The staff are SO supportive and are always on and to offer help, advice, or just go for a coffee and a chat if you need it! The course itself is very comprehensive and offers a wide range of exciting modules to choose from! Personally I chose to enrol on finance programmes in year 1, HR programmes in year 2, and Marketing programmes in year 3. This has allowed me to develop a comprehensive understanding on Business Management across multiple sectors as well as concentrate my studying to obtain a First! I have also been able to take advantage of a 2.5 year fast track course which has helped me get into employment sooner without missing out on uni life! I would absolutely recommend any of the courses in the Business School of Glyndwr! I have had a wonderful experience and made strong friendships with both students and lecturers!
"The Zone" is an on site careers centre that have staff there to offer help with job applications, CV and statement writing, Entrepenuerial and Business start ups as well as extra curriculum courses that will help to pad out your CV and make you more employable. The staff will also find and follow up on job prospects and help you present yourself in the best way with interview practice.
The university offers 2 on site student villages as well as several sites and house shares close to the university that is regulated and safety checked as well as on site security if yu ever need them!
I will give three for the overall. One thing I would like to point out that uni should be stricter with the smoking area. They should design a smoking area in front of New Business School entrance so all the smokers will know where they should do instead of standing and smoking in to restricted area. This is causing serious health problem for the non-smokers. Thats the only and the serious issues which uni shold take action.
The PR lecture particularly in final year are not being responsible for their roles...the designed courses is kinda repeating from second year. It quite dissapointed when you are paying a big funds for the tuition fees
The largest university awards in the UK voted for exclusively by students - find out which unis our student reviewers love!
Other students also liked these unis - you might too!
It is a good university with a modern academic staff, which is quite adequate for the department I chose.
Need to improve Sports activities
PROS - The university has been absolutely stellar at providing opportunities to those who put in that extra effort. - Support, particularly the maths gym provided by the uni for ...
