Good experience with lecturers etc
The city in overall is a good place for study because it is quiet. The things I like the most out of the uni are the Students Union and facilities that serve the need of the students.
Being in the University of Buckingham has honed my intellectuality. The academic support given by the university, together with personal attention from the lecturers have provided me well with equipment, skills, and knowledge for my future job.
The university, along with their friendly staff and lecturers, has give me a very good experience and support. The city life could be boring sometimes, but with the clubs and societies around, campus life could be fun since there are many activities we could choose from.
My first few weeks here have been excellent and I've had a brilliant introduction. The best thing about my course is the enthusiastic course director. You are also able to start your own business as part of the degree. The Students' Union is quite small, but it's very enjoyable. The facilities in the university seem to be good and seem to be open regularly. I'm a member of the Film Society and Debating Society, and they are really good fun. My room is small, but the accommodation overall, such as the facilities, are good.
Overall, my experience at the University of Buckingham has been good. My degree is so valuable; we are learning to apply the theories to real life business. However, there is a shortage of books in the library. I'm a member of the Islamic Society, which is great fun.
The University of Buckingham is excellent; I am on a good course and I've made great friends. The practical business side of my course is excellent, but there should be more computers in the library. The Students' Union is very good for a small university. Additionally, there is always someone available to provide support/help if needed.
Really enjoyed my time at Buckingham. Staff are very helpful and always willing to offer their time. The student union host an array of parties, events and also try and cater for all religious occasions/ festivals which makes it both enjoyable for contemporaries of the respective religions but also a phenomenal occasion for others to learn new religions/ cultures. Would highly recommend the university.
Very good university, intense course and prepared me for running my own business and gave me the independence, and confidence, I needed to strive for this goal.
What the University of Buckingham lacks in size, it more than makes up for in affection and warmth. The 'fast-track' courses don't feel 'fast-tracked'. Certainly worth a consideration if you don't mind having a more quiet city life
It is the best university to study and complete degree in 2 years under cooperative enviornment and beautiful sceneries. Though its small town but even then student try to enjoy as much as they can. On weekend students go to nearby town oxford or milton keynes for shopping and parties
Buckingham is ideal for the 2nd time degree or professional who wishes to do well and has actively chosen this path. The dedication of the tutors and welfare staff is amazing as everyone is there to help you succeed. The friendliest students from across the world help to make it the best uni in the UK
The university of Buckingham is a Good university in a friendly environment. The staff are helpful and approachable. Lectures are stimulating and tutorials consist of a small group of students which makes it easier to participate and answer questions and learn where you stand in the course and where you need to improve.
The university is good in terms of duration and intensive courses it provides that are an attracting force that brings students in from around the world, hard work is expected in fact necessary and can be balanced with proper time planning, the campus has nice trees, comfortable bus transportation and parties are arranged almost every weekend. I had a good experience overall
The university is very good. The quality of lecturers is great and they are willing to help. The course is difficult but overall very good! Really enjoying it.
I have always been a shy person and when I joined the Uni, I was frightened as I did not know anyone and was not sure If I could make friends. But the people in my year and the year above were so WELCOMING! I felt like I was at home. And the teachers and staff were absolutely great, always had a smile! Any help that i needed they assisted me so well. The support from the students and teachers was incredible. I am so happy I made the choice to be a part of Buckingham. If I could I would definitely want to re-live those 2 years again. THANK YOU BUCKINGHAM FOR SUCH A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!
This school is so amazing. They help you and guide you and tell you what to do and what not to do . It practically builds you. I have never heard someone complain about bucks. Except the nightlife but every other thing is legit.
University Of Buckingham has been thus far the best experience in my life. Acedemics with great aspirations for every students. The Student Union creates a great diversty amongs all students. Students here do they degree in 2 years. In return. Supportive staff and great knowledge is everywhere in the campus. The facilites are superb with great IT- service and new published books from acedemic staff and international. The libraries are great with great service from the staff. I would recommand any individual to join Buckingham. Because it will give you a fantastic experience and in the end you will accomplish a degree in 2 years!


Challenging but the most rewarding experience I have ever done.
Relaxed, quaint + pretty, limited nightlife = more time to study.
Only been part of music society, instruments are top range.
- Clean and modern, great! - Housemates: cleaner twice per week
