The location of campus is very good for travel.
The uni has great facilities such as the gym and canteens in summer row and mcintyre house. The ucb library has many resources available which I can use for assignments. The cold food availability in moss house could be improved. Making it clearer if foods are halal/kosher.
The best part is the society’s The worst part is the ga
The schedules and work are manageable. Relaxed atmosphere. Hard to connect with other students, not much activities on.
Good lecturers but the 3 hour long lectures are very long to concentrate Good distribution of lectures throughout the week Good food but could do with more healthier options I live from home and there is not many activities not at the halls of residence that I can attend
The location of the university is very convenient and easy to access, my experience has been very good but I don’t feel a strong sense of community. There aren’t as many societies as I would think and I don’t feel that they are advertised as much/ I feel like I can’t join because nobody I know has joined any. I would love to see more societies that are supportive and easy to access for people who feel more shy or anxious about meeting new groups of people.
I like the environment and the facilities such as the library
Student support is very good. The environment is very friendly. Lecturers are very kind and helpful. A lot of academic support, which I appreciate. Would like to see more of system in place when buying food from uni. In Moss House there's usually only one worker or two serving students and making drinks.
Ucb has many good facilities and support systems in place which really helps when we need help for assignments etc. One thing to improve on would be to have more food places inside of the building.
The university from inside is good easy to find rooms and facilities, lectures and staff are helpful. However the location I wouldn’t say is great as there’s difficulty to drop off and pick and parking unlike other university.
The facilities are clean and modern. The support from lecturers is very helpful. The other students are friendly and approachable. More CASE appointments could be beneficial.
I really like the university and the environment of the university. The most thing I like about the university is university staff. Staff is so helpful, so nice, the way they are teaching and support you. Everything is good except I little thing that is food. University should have more food varieties especially for the vegetarians. Thank you
Uni is going okay so far! I really love the facilities, which make the experience worth it, especially since I commute from quite far. The long journey can be a bit of a struggle, and the lectures do feel a little too long sometimes, but overall, I’m happy and making the most of it!
Kick-start is good. The Food is so nice. It's impossible to join a sports society if u don't live nearby.
It’s a great place to study for students due to its strong focus on practical, career-oriented education. It offers state-of-the-art facilities, including specialist kitchens, salons, and health simulation suites, ideal for hands-on learning. UCB is known for its excellent support services and close industry links, providing students with opportunities for placements and networking.
Long lectures, a lot of information to take in for the 3 hours. Interesting and challenging
Everything fantastic
Everything is perfect
Best aspects: The lecturer support is excellent, and recorded lessons are invaluable for reviewing and balancing studies with other responsibilities. improvement: More time and hands-on experience with Sage software would be beneficial to better prepare students for the workplace.


The best aspects are the student support that is available easily and quickly from the university in all aspects of student and normal day to day life. The worse aspects include
I appreciate that you can rewatch your lectures as they are recorded by the lecturers which makes it much easier to catch up after a period of illness. I feel that some of our lectures could be taught online to safe travel time however.
The WiFi connection within the halls is not very good which at times can make it highly difficult to do work for lectures from your room. However the location is well placed with a good distance from the uni and shops around so any essentials can always be accessed
