Information Management MSc

University rating (4)

There’s some boring lectures and some labs are undesirable, perhaps because there is no interaction, and the students are also uncooperative, and most of them are of certain nationalities.

MPhil/ PhD Education

University rating (5)

In recent months, I have encountered family bereavement which made me unable to focus and concentrate on my studies. As a student, the University supported me as a student carer, the staff provided me with opportunities to facilitate and support my health and well-being. The supervision team and my PGR committee have also supported me in my smooth return to my studies. My fellow PGR students have also extended their moral and emotional support when I traveled back home; all because I was able to build a supportive PhD community at Strathclyde. As I reflect on this particular aspect of my journey, I cannot think of any University that can accommodate and understand my journey, and the support I need to continue with my studies. And for this, I consider Strathclyde to be a great place and a community to study. I think all Universities are not perfect. And Strathclyde still needs some room to grow to improve its services to us. One aspect would be providing systematic support for doctoral studies. I still think we are lacking in terms of having more concerted, supported, and synchronized work. Having a Doctoral Researchers Group is a good idea to bring all PhD students together. But faculties also have their own PGR representatives which rather confuses students. If this can be ironed out more, then I think we will have a more vibrant, streamlined, and well-orchestrated community that interacts with each other.

Psychology and Counselling BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

The Strath union is amazing, quite fun to visit even on a normal weekday. The location is up on a hill so yeah includes tough walking along with the winds. The campus is nice not very attractive though as compared to other universities in and around Glasgow

Chemistry MChem

University rating (4)

The campus feels disconnected; there’s no crossing of students doing different careers even when in the same general group. That said; the lecturers are very good at explaining things clearly (except for one or two exceptions) and the location of the campus allows students to experience the city center easily.

PhD/ MPhil Chemical & process engineering

University rating (5)

Located in Glasgow City Centre, making its location so convenient. Great teaching staff and facilities. The worst aspect could be the lack of green spaces.

Biochemistry and Pharmacology BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

Strathclyde has a very warm and welcoming feel. Canadian students will feel right at home, as there are many parallels between Scottish and Canadian culture. The university is located right next to downtown, which means there is plenty of opportunity to explore the cafes, pubs, shops, and beautiful buildings near campus.

MSc in Business and Management

University rating (5)

Every thing is good about the university. Just the location of one of the on campus accommodation seems ok. There's a lot of walking. I am suffering from a knee injury that makes it even harder.
