It’s got really good lecturers great course
Great city
I like studying I don’t like analysis
It’s a fantastic university and I always feel like I have lots of support. When I don’t understand something in a lecture I feel that I can always book office hours with the lecturers. I have accessed the careers advices when I needed for placement and this year while I am looking for a job. I also highly commend the university for having MASH which has really helped me on my course and dissertation. The only issue I have is with the buses. Overall its a great place to study and I could not recommend it enough b
Lots of events on at the SU. Lots of building works around campus.
Generally lecturers are very attentive to detail and explanation, but sometimes PowerPoints are very poorly made
Uni is on a hill and not many buses to it.
Best: plenty of different places to eat and study Worst: bus prices
Teaching good
the disability support is amazing and my lecturers genuinely care about us
Lovely staff and good science facilities.
Bath is a nice place, campus is fairly nice and course is interesting and taught well
Campus cozy aspect
A really good community feel at the university. The campus is a bus ride from town, which is the only downside of the location. Good facilities - excellent sport/gym facilities. Lots of study spaces & food options.
SU is great, lots of fun events and student support during stressful periods Campus has old buildings and lectures don’t have plugs so laptop always dies, wifi is bad in some places too on campus so hard to do work
Lovely people, interesting course content!
Overall, the staff are very supportive and willing to help. The uni has a good Support & Report system for issues, and there are other student support systems too. Also, there's a 24h library which is great for last minute cramming (oops). Academic support is good too. There's a maths help programme which is easily accessible, for example. The societies are great and Bath had one of the fullest Freshers weeks, as far as I've heard. As for improvements, it seems like Bath has very fast pacing compared to many unis (at least for physics - a friend was shocked at what we covered in the first term). This made it a little difficult to transition from A-levels to a uni learning style.
Loads of stuff to get involved in with decent facilities. I really enjoy my course and the way it is taught which is a major contributor to the good score. I think the location is a little annoying to get to once you do not live on campus as the buses are expensive and unreliable, a more affordable uni experience would greatly benefit here.
Extremely limited services for student wellbeing or disability consultations. Takes at least a month to access any kind of initial uni consultation even if this is earmarked by a gp. For services relating to mental health this kind of gap can make a big difference. Also rental prices are very expensive and rising about £50 per month per year, so would soon not be viable for most students.


Taught well
