Maybe try to make doing uni work a bit more exciting and make make it an important task to do
The course is really nice and supportive with the staff being absolutely wonderful! It’s really easy to access support within the uni!!
The university is very student focused so support and opportunities are great. If it was improved I think the student life isn’t so big here and that may be due to the location so giving students opportunities for that student life through the year would be good. They offer things during freshers but no other time and I think it should be a full year thing.
Overall it's very inclusive, everyone's lovely, loads on offer, really enjoyed.
It's not too big which is a good thing as I don't feel overwhelmed on campus. Additionally, the student support services are amazing and really helpful along every step of your academic journey.

- very friendly and supporting staff - limited events at Burnley campus such as socials to meet people
Nice facilities, friendly staff, and good location. However, some support is extremely difficult to acquire. Often emails/queries will go without answer for weeks on end. Some never get an answer.
more ways to meet new people
The student support is there and its great, it should be improved by making the support easier to access. Myself and other students found wiser really hard to get in touch with via the website.
i enjoy the social aspect and access to specialist equipment on my course. i do not enjoy the independence aspect
There are so many great facilities and opportunities that this university has to offer, With student union constantly keeping us up to date and course leaders offering as much help as they can. Workshop leaders leading classes to their best abilities making sure our knowledge is to the best of our understanding. There are also many events and fairs that give us several opportunities in order to connect with many employers and gain experience work experience. I Love studying here as the campus itself is aesthetically pleasing and has lots of food places around it making it an enjoyable to place not only to study but so socialise with peers after study hours. There is also lots of great support available. One thing to be improved is parking as there is not much parking available for students around the campus.
The overall look and feel of the campus is a bit dated and im not a fan of the new buildings, the modern look to me just looks and feels cheap and cold. Buildings aside, Facilities and staff have been fantastic throughout. They clearly care about the topics and want to share that knowledge.
its got amazing teachers that provide support with amazing facilities . not much for student life
It has a great location, online facilities could be improved
Great atmosphere within the uni and all students attending. Friendly environment in every lecture or lesson. Tech could maybe be improved with new keyboards moused or monitors. Maybe the ability to loan laptops and take out the library so students can possibly do work from home. Maybe a 48hr loan that able you to take out the library
the teachers are lovely and the campus is amazing but the timetable take a while to be updated for the new year
Close to home, accessible good teachers and support
Location and library is great. However, the cost of of items on campus, is too expensive. Additionally, student support, with regards to wellbeing, I don't think a six session access is viable. I believe the uni/uni psychologist should help with referrals or extended therapy.

I like how supportive the uni, in general, is. From the teachers and the support. I've had such a pleasant experience which im very grateful for.
I enjoy the course due to the balance between studying and practical. I generally enjoy maths and problem solving so this course has been really enjoyable for me.
It's quiet yet in city centre. Bus and train station are within reasonable walking distance
