For me personally I think I like the way of study here and also everyone is friendly and ready to help out
Everything is amazing just managing costs are sometimes hard otherwise we are well supported and assured about how we are.
Love the lecturers. They do great - approachable supportive and seem to really enjoy what they do which makes it that so much more engagable. So far have not seen lecturer who just reads of the slides. The only drawback for me - parking!
Lectures are very educated and helpful.
Best part is coming to classes and the worse aspects I’d say is distractions in class and having to travel far
More information about the services and because in the city centre the classes should start at 10 am instead 9:00 or 9:30 because of the traffic and office hours
The campus buildings are very nice, I feel safe inside and the facilities are good. I wish there were more sport options to participate in. The food is very well made and options are extensive. The location of Birmingham is not safe, and I do not feel safe outside, but this cannot be changed by the university.
I am enjoying everything about my course. I've met lovely people. I appreciate all the support the tutors providing . Over all UCB is a great place to be in .
Lecturers are great. We get immense support from the lecturers team. The uni’s hands on experience method of learning is fruitful to us students. Sometimes the class is bit noisy, causing distractions. Apart from that everything is great.
In some toilets there’s gaps in between under the stall walls which feels a bit awkward. Classrooms and time tables are great, lectures are also great at supporting student needs. However Mondays lessons is a full day (9-4) and is a little bit draining, taking into consideration that we have to go home, cook and eat and some students commute very far, however this isn’t the university’s fault..
My friend at university and the lecturers. Content is engaging and course incentives. It can be hard to travel in the winter months
More support available in reguards to more 1-1 help when needed and simple checking up on students. This is because as someone who is retaking, I do feel like I need that "extra" support. This is because I dont feel like I have fit well in either year and having that support or someone to talk to would be extremely helpful.
Everything from environmental to Lectures and lecturers are excellent
The university has a lot of facilities for support and the building is so modern. The teachers are very helpful.
I like how the teachers carry out their lectures and give us fun activities to do which helps us a lot to learn more. I like how they offer assignment caffès which helps us with our assignments.
UCB is the a great uni especially for international students. Lecturers are amazing 😍
great place to study


We have a lot of different teachers due to staff illness which has made some impact on my learning. Everyone is really friendly and helpful
I don’t like the online lessons I feel there hard to follow
