Physics and Astronomy (with a foundation year) BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

Lots of construction at the moment so I imagine when that’s done it will be nice but not exactly nice to look at in the present. Accommodation is very good but maintenance could be better currently under staffed and feels like if they had more staff maintaining the standards at the start of the year would be easier. Very skate-able university most roads can skate along would probably be the best aspect in my opinion. But other than that having a bus that flows through the university and the accommodation is very good

Accounting and Finance BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

The teachers, campus, student support are all amazing. Due to the university being quite far from the city of Brighton and Hove the location isn’t ideal. Moreover, student life is low rated due to making friends and connecting with people being quite difficult. Overall the university is pretty good and I would want my children or other friends and family members to come here too.

Zoology BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

The student community is fantastic. You won’t find anywhere better. I love the campus a lot - it has a real community feel. There’s not a lot of student support available however. I’ve struggled a lot when trying to get it. Luckily I’ve had the student communities to fall back on. My course lacks a lot if you don’t have enough money to go on the field courses. There are other opportunities available, but you definitely miss out.

Economics and Politics

University rating (4)

It’s a generally wonderful university, just the location is isolated from the city, so transport and anything involving logistics is expensive. Also, the buildings are slightly (very slightly) out of date.
