Mathematics, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics (BSc MORSE) BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

At the University of Southampton it’s the student body and community who makes it. The community is unreal and (I think) everyone feels part of it and that they belong. I would say the Students’ Union could actually listen to students more as they feel so far removed from the body they’re meant to represent

Biomedical Sciences BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

It's a great quiet city compared to London. It feels very safe where I live and I enjoy the views and abundant nature that is in and around the town which is accessible without having a car. I also find the campus very good and the lecturers do a goof job at teaching content for my course. The nightlife is great for students with lots of things to do, lots of societies to get involved with and develop new skills.

Philosophy BA (Hons)

University rating (4)

Overall nice campus and University but the City is a bit quiet and lacking in things to do. Also students don't seem to attend much events in general.

Psychology BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

I honestly did not have high hopes. But when I began meeting people and going out it started to feel even more lively and fun. I don’t know much of what could be improved since everything has been going well. Although I would say just the reception at halls since there was problem that I reported and not much has been done for about a month and a half.

Mechanical Engineering/Sustainable Energy Systems MEng (Hons)

University rating (4)

The campus and engineering facilities are very good. However the student’s union can be frustrating to deal with, and special cons, student support & disability are hard to get in contact with and get positive outcomes
