I like my course and how interactive it is
Nothing
It's very inclusive, and welcoming. There's always tones or activities to meet and get to know more people. The staff are so kind and always care about the student experience, constantly checking in to make sure we have the best experience
Friendly environment and very supportive lecturers

Very friendly and fun
Best is the friendly atmosphere
I like that it is not central in Edinburgh but the transport is great. The university is small enough that it is personal and you can get great support as everyone get to know you
Great
I like the campus is quite small but has a nice friendly feel to it. The resources and staff are great and I like my course, it's challenging but good with good people. I've struggled a bit with my mental health because of the work load but that's slowly changing. Overall I would absolutely recommend QMU because of how inclusive it is.
It’s inclusive and welcoming.
I think it has made me feel like I have a place in a community but I think timings of timetables could be better
Not as many activities for students compared to my home university
I enjoy the options for sports
Everything has been amazing
I feel really supported at university


The best aspect of my university is living on campus I like the quiet and serene location it gives me a sense of peace. The worst aspect I would say is there is not a lot of social life
I like my course and the facilities we have and use. The lectures are very helpful and I believe the class hours are reasonable. However I wish there was more practical modules
I like the location of the halls it’s very close to campus which is an advantage. However the rent is quite expensive
