The rustic town and small classroom sizes are attractive to students. More workshops for engineering students from relevant departments like 3D Printing, AI etc
Great facilities Least - lack of response to emails
There is a good range of courses and lots of socials.
It could be improved by getting involved with more competitors and creating work opportunities.
Best - location, support from my lectures when in lesson and outside. Worst - 9 am lessons.
Very incredible
I like the university's facilities, lecturers' behaviour, student help desk and the study. I don't like timing of class and number of class which is held.
I like my university facilities students helping desk lecturer and behaviour etc. I don't like the timing of classes.
The teachers are supportive, and the colleagues are mature.
Good
It's very modern and very nice, with lots of places to study alone.
I love the variety of assignment types and that there is so much support both academically and pastorally. The location of the campus is great with it being so close to both town and green space. I think the uni could improve student experience by making accommodation standards and checks stricter. This would help avoid students having to live in unhygienic and messy conditions caused by other students.
I feel like trying to find students unions and societies are quite hard to find as you need to do extensive research by yourself in order to find what societies you want to be a part of. Otherwise great uni.
Good
The university is located in the CENTRAL part of northampton having surrounded near many building The university having lot of facilites make it better.
The teachers are very supportive
Absoloutely love the ambience and the helpful nature of the uni. The staff are very very helpful and respectful in all aspects whether that’s the course or general support. I love the easy accessibility of most aspects regarding my course. Timetable, feedback, help. I dislike that sometimes some modules require class to end at 6pm. A little irritating as it’s getting dark earlier and it’s a little unsafe to commute at certain locations.


The best thing about the university is good teaching habits, and the worst thing is the student activities have a low bar, meaning it is very boring.
It requires everyday presence in class, unlike some courses where you get an online presence.
It’s can get crampy for my halls unlike the other more expensive halls and again the best thing it’s affordable
