Great campus Not the safest location
This university is really good for its services and infrastructures, the only problem would be its distance from the city centre and the accomodations. Student life is great, societies are diverse and create a real bond between students.
University life has been a mixed experience: the campus itself is fantastic, with plenty of modern study spaces, quiet areas, and well-equipped facilities that make independent work genuinely productive. At the same time, lectures and seminars can feel frustratingly unhelpful, as lectures often turn into a long stream of uninterrupted talking that is hard to follow and process in real time. Seminars then sometimes feel redundant, serving mainly as a recap of the lecture or assigned readings rather than adding new perspectives or engaging in discussion.
Have more practical or workshop so we can get hand on experience
Good student support from the university. many resources available should one be struggling. some buildings and facilities are old, outdated and dirty!
I love how many extracurricular opportunities I have been offered!
I like the uni campus and how close the accommodation is to it. Also the events run by the accomodation are really good and also the crochet society is a lot of fun. The wellbeing team for my school aren't very helpful.
Campus and facilities are great, especially for independent study. But little things like the fourth floor of arts is still in repair and blocked off for 3-4 years. Social opportunities are extensive and place to do so are great. But the amount of emails we get for random stuff is too much.
Gorgeous campus and facilities, great student support
The university campus is a really nice place to be and work. There's an active social life from the guild and societies as well as with access to the city centre for clubs, restaurants, shops etc. The staff within College of Arts and Law are really good and the system in place for joint honours students is really supportive. The University offers many different opportunities for course and career advancement.
I feel like the scenery, campus and the actual teaching is great here. I think the location isn't the best for me personally because I live further away but there are great facilities available.
Less space in library when its exam season.
The teaching and campus is great but maybe if the uni put more safety measures for selly oak it would be nicer
I like all the study spaces across campus and the staff in the department are amazing. The opportunities to work on campus are great as well. I would say that I wish that uni resources were equally distributed among the colleges.
Great campus and facilities
I've loved all the free activities on campus during Christmas and UOB Xtra! There isn't much I feel needs to be improved besides ease of communication with international students, particularly on applying for leave of absences

I love the campus style within a city, best of both worlds. I also love how close 2nd/3rd year accommodation is to the university
It’s all in person but also mostly recorded
It was not too far a walk and was very social
