Great for engineering, since the campus is mainly focused on engineering, staff are great and very friendly. They ease you in very nicely, and don't pile on work. Very focused on student feedback, and they care about students opinions

Chemical Engineering with a Year in Industry - MEng (Hons)

University rating (5)

The best part of Swansea University is the facilities. Specifically for engineering, having an entire campus dedicated to STEM is a massive advantage, with engineering facilities unmatched by any other university. When choosing univeristy after A-levels, Swansea University was a clear choice after I visited for an Open Day. Worst part: Bay Campus (STEM campus) is slightly out of the town, making it slightly more difficult to reach after the first year. I personally cycled or drove and had no problem, but I know a lot of students who struggled with motivation to get to campus, as they had to rely on public transport.
