*Students got a small reward for their timeHarper is great if you are an agriculture /vet/ engineering student or come from a farming background. However for zoology students the student support, overall social life and facilities are greatly lacking.
Student Union could do more to support clubs. Facilities are good. Lecturers are great
The worst aspect is the behaviour of the people here. It’s not a safe place for a woman. The men barely have a grasp on consent and have no respect that you are a human being. The Uni does nothing to stop or prevent this behaviour nor reprimand it. There are guys nude at student union parties. They knock on ur door after hours They threaten to rape you casually. When this is reported nothing happens our words against there’s.
Student union needs a re shuffle not managing clubs and societies funding properly
Student unions feels to go against students Great student support and always opportunities for any support
SU dont like us
If they would come fix the hot water in the showers in Ward that would be great otherwise no complaints
18-24 years
Some things are dated but overall its great for agriculture
Go out of your comfort zone and get out there
Very good
Rural campus with state of the art facilities, good student life and support
It is a friendly and well equipped campus. I like that everything is there on campus, and that it is located in the countryside. Having to travel by car or bus to the nearest town is slightly annoying when it comes to needing to get shopping etc. However the university itself is great, the lecturers are very approachable and informative, and the student life is great fun with regular social activities.
Food is good Staff are friendly Good events Lots of societies to join
Practical experience on the course. Catered halls are old and worn out.
Good fun
Best part of Harper is the community feel. Everyone’s always inclusive and you can get so many different clubs that make you feel at home. Your always doing something whether it’s going to the gym, SU on a Wednesday, going out with friends or actually studying. The Staff are so supportive and there’s so many ways to get involved with the institution and industry from your fingertips. The student union is so supportive and welcoming for anything you’re struggling with. The only thing about Harper I would say is the location. It’s great for outdoors people if you like the countryside however if your more into a city life I would not recommend as you might find it boring.
Good location for the course and the student union do a great job at organising events. More transport options to be able to get into newport for those who don't drive.
Very good
Love the location, lecturers are clearly very engaged with their subject areas, perhaps not as much night life as inner city universities but personally I'd still prefer to be in a more rural setting.
