Sort:Latest reviewsFor me, the best aspects of university life are the opportunity to make friends, the excellent facilities, and the convenience of traveling from home since it’s not too far (though the hill is really a challenge!). I also enjoy the student union and engaging in society activities, which make the experience more enjoyable. However, I feel there are areas that could be improved. The teaching quality could be better, as some lectures are overly long and can become tiring. My timetable is also quite packed-Mondays and Tuesdays, for example, run from 9 to 3 without breaks, which can be exhausting. Additionally, I wish there were more career development and job application preparation resources available on MyPlace.
- campus is really central and getting from A to B is really simple - if you don't want to study at the library, during peak times you don't stand a chance of finding somewhere else on campus, more seating is needed in the union, learning and teaching building etc - the students union and sports union facilities and staff are fantastic - student support is great and is only getting better as the years go on
great people
Love it. Nothing to say
Love the student community, lack of thought for what to improve, overall amazing
Sports centre and library very good. Union could have better night life/vibe. Need more microwaves in library.
Union more live music.
My best aspect is the uni lecturers. My worst aspect is number of contact hours (very few).
It’s been very good and easy to navigate :)

It’s a great place to study with great facilities and staff
Great facilities.
The best aspects are the the socialising and the worst aspects are trying to meet deadlines
Good union
The Uni is right next to the city centre but also not far from nice quieter places like Glasgow green. Also there are so many different sports teams and society’s to join.
4.5
Great location right in heart of glasgow, perfect for student life. Lacking storage/locker facilities around campus.
Tutors are very keen to help students/ they want best for us. Quality of teaching is really good too... one class I have is a new lecturer who is just finding their feet so still getting used to them. 4th year placement was a disgrace, no chemistry involved and terrible work-life balance, company was not enjoyable to work for! not the university's fault but students should not be sent there.
Great location, right next to university, generally quite nice halls too in terms of what you get. In halls during covid so not a slight exception in my experience. Serious safety concerns and accident proved that, I was moved to different halls and allocation was not ideal.
