Pretty good, I think there’s always more to be improved on and the funding goes to things students don’t see or benefit on.
The best is access to facilities and really good equipment
- the lakes is the best spot to hang out and the library is the perfect spot to study
honestly really good
Lovely uni, very nice people and union is supportive and effective
Vibe and environment
Been good for me
We love it here, it’s top tier and kind!
The facilities are great and the lecturers are really nice and thorough with their teachings. I also play basketball for the uni of essex and the basketball facilities are amazing.
It’s a good uni
Good uni
Student support is rubbish, but lots of greenery
I think the university has dropped of in terms of maintenance to ensure night life is good around campus leading to it feeling like a ghost time sometimes. A positive aspect for the university experience is the lecturers, who constantly make time for you
architecture is brutalist need i say more. BUT very nice environment and student community
there aren’t a lot of things to do more activity would be amazing
I love the library. Its the best place to lock in and study. The paternoster lift makes it easy access to all 5 floors. In my eyes. There's nothing this uni can improve....it has it all!!!
Uni is the best
The campus is amazing, it feels very nice to be surrounded by nature, it’s a great environnement to live and study in.
