The facilities are great, we have access to everything we need for our coursework and more. There is a gym and loads of options for sport. The uni holds events for all sorts of holidays and activities. The student union is really supportive. There are great initiatives for sustainability. Student life separate from the uni, as far as I’ve noticed, is very nightlife based but that might just be because I haven’t explored enough.
Abertay University is a great place to study because of the many of the facilities and knowledge that are provided here are top notch. Especially, if you are looking to study computer related courses then this is the best in my opinion in a reasonable tuition fee. It doesn't matter which course, whether it is related to cybersecurity, Ethical Hacking, Computer Games or Computer Science, Abertay University holds extraordinary results in computing courses. In addition to that, Students Association makes a normal student's(like me) life very much easier. They help every students with any problem to reach to its solution. They take mental health of students very seriously and help in supporting them to cheer them. Any other conditions like: Racism, Harassment, Abuse, Fraud and many more are also given much attention
good
with the university being smaller than others, your classes tend to be smaller allowing you more contact with teaching staff to receive support during your studies. student support are always contactable and get back to you quickly to offer you any support you may need. teaching staff are also very approachable and will always strive to help you achieve your best during your time here at abertay.
Societies should spread their events out more as they all usually fall on the same day at the same time, also, abertay should make it easier to find events going on as I see things on posters but never online. Theres alot of construction around but overall the campas is nice, especially Annies which is the uni's cafe. There's a lot of things to do around here as well and they do have a lot of support around although I haven't used many of them.
Abertay is the top uni for any games or cyber-related courses due to it's connections and location in Dundee which is the games hub in Scotland, but being on the coast means there isn't really anything to do; it's only a small city, Edinburgh is just over an hour away on the train which is a bit of an inconvenience if you want to go to an actual city.
Its great
Its ok
Fully inclusive with what feels like an ever increasing emphasis on attracting more international students.

I wouldn’t say I’ve had any particularly bad experiences at Abertay, every time I have needed help with anything it has been done very quickly, everyone it’s extremely friendly and the facilities are excellent.
The facilities make Abertay a top place to study, having access to high end technology to run strong softwares when working is super useful especially when it’s hard to own this technology personally due to cost, it also gives an insight on what softwares and devices you could be using in the future when it comes to professional work.
Everything perfectly
It is a nice welcoming environment. The facilities could be better and more modern
