While Edinburgh Napier University boasts a prime location in a vibrant city, my experience has been markedly disappointing. The high tuition fees do not align with the educational value received. Class attendance is minimal, and the curriculum and lectures are poorly structured, leading to a disjointed learning experience. The staff's unhelpfulness and discourteous attitude further exacerbate these issues. Based on my observations, I would not recommend Edinburgh Napier University as a worthwhile academic investment. However, it is important to note that the city of Edinburgh itself offers a rich cultural and social environment, which somewhat softens the overall negative impression.

While there may be many more facilities I have not explored but the most fascinating one for me would be the different students union and extra curricular activities the university has for us and how the university encourages the students to take part in different activities. Another one would be the variety of students clubs in the university to join. the flexibility of the university amuse me(in a good way) to let the students apply and grant permission to the clubs. I love everything I have seen up to now and am looking forward to what else I can discover new things of the university for myself.
Lecturers and classes are good, classrooms and basic facilities are good, but there is a lack of extra curricular, and other facilities such as gym cafes. Student union is particularly bad, as it is always closed and rarely busy as no-one knows where it is. I enjoy the ease of talking to personal development tutors and your module leaders, and the disability support is excellent.
The uni is pretty positive and has a lot of creative people and a great support
The best aspect about my university is how good teachers allow student to do most of the material online if we wish too. One thing that should be improved is the explanation to students related to important resources that are made available to them such as the ability to borrow a laptop for the entire duration of the year. But overall the University facilities are good.
Best aspects are the friends, tutorials and friendly lecturers. Worst aspect is the lack of feedback on coursework
I have always received support very quickly and utilised the myFuture services that allowed me to prepare for interviews and apply for jobs.
Most of the modules are great other than Computing in Contemporary Society which in my point of view, could be better if in case of some news which is not applied to everyone and the course work is something random, make it more related to the course that each student is studying.

I love studying here because of the amazing lecturers and the practical, work-focused approach of all the subjects. The Jack Kilby Center feels like a second home, and I'm really grateful for all the support and opportunities the Student Association provides. To make it even better, maybe we could keep updating our courses with the latest industry trends and expand the support services a bit more.
I’m not sure yet
Make the timetables match the ones our lecturers give us - they’re not correct and it confuses me quite a lot.
It’s a good university with a lot of student support.
