Best: meeting friend. The course is mostly good Worst: study skills
If I talk about the university its amazing.
best: meeting people worst: uni bus drives past me every morning.
The best aspects are the easy access and student support, although the worst aspect of uni life is not fitting in groups and being lonely most of the time despite trying.
I love the hospitality of the staff around the different sites , something I really proud about the University of Derby is all the activities and programs that are offering to the students cause they are very versatile.
It is quite easy go interact with the lecturers and also access the union amd come into contact with high ranking officials, but could be improved by ensuring lecturers are treated well and rewarded for their hard labour

Good
It’s good how close everything is

I am very annoyed that the buses cost money as I don’t make enough money to budget for bus rides and I deal with chronic stomach pain sometimes which makes walking to and from uni especially difficult.
I wish there was a screenwriting module in this course because i don’t want to take the masters course to take that class.
i rlly hate some of the bedroom layouts because they don’t make good use of the space and it can be very awkward to navigate.
