No flaws! The blended teaching, the opportunities, the collaborations, couldn’t have asked for a better course and department

The best aspect is that there are some interesting topics and it is flexible in terms of learning online. The worst aspect is that pretty much everything is online and I have had 0 interaction with people from my course

This last year has progressed from all online at the start of the year to mostly in person at the end of the year. There’s alot of practicals for the different modules and support sessions for deadlines/assignments.

Like with most places, it’s important to bare your safety in mind however I’ve never had or heard of any issues. The town centre is nice, lots of high street shops and restaurants like primark, H&M, nandos etc. Plenty of things to do; bowling, mini golf etc. Colchester is also not too far away from the beach.

Majority of the courses are taught online. But they could include compulsory module for Python and R in the module list. Also exchange few course from Spring to summer and vice versa.

The placement of and internships are very good but I will be have to apply to see how well.

The teaching process is great. A lot to learn though, but the staff is quite cooperative and do their best to help us in our difficulties.

I absolutely love this campus!

The lectirers are one of a kind here.

There is face to face classes as well as online, the teachers are very approachable but there needs to be more support for employment in the future.

Night life is great! But might get a little bit expensive if you go out every night, so make sure you budget!

The showers at the Meadows are a bit small and you have to share a kitchen but the it’s quite spacious and close to uni.

Best part was giving an opportunity to attend the university being an international student.

best aspects include there is a lot of help available to me lecturers are always willing to answer my questions or help me when I need it. Worst aspects are that there is a lot of striking within the department thus meaning we don’t always get the content provided.
