The city being smaller is zcgually really helpful as everything is closetogether.
Everything is compact and everything is at least 10 mins away from everything. Lots to do and plently places to study

I love it here. The university is so fantastically supportive. There are so many great features about Dundee too and so much to get involved with .
The University of Dundee is a campus beside the city centre getting the best of both worlds. Being sat between Scotland's other major cities and with in an arms reach of the beautiful highlands, its a really great location. It's cheap and easy to get around. The course is interesting. However, there isn't amazing support available. The university service is good but the school of life sciences is not very supportive
University of Dundee is definitely a good place to study if you're interested in life sciences, the courses are all incredibly engaging along with experienced and understanding lecturers. Student life is quite good too, with multiple things on like parties or more calmer gatherings usually multiple times a week. However a few of the buildings around campus are definitely in need of an upgrade as their age is beginning to show, there has been the occasional issue with heating/air conditioning/computers not working.
great size city, really good student community, wide variety of societies to join

The campus is in a great location and everything is easily accessible. Since COVID there is a lack of feeling of community between the university and the students.
Not a very interactive or inviting campus. Mono is unsafe and the music is not good. Games room is disappointing and for social hangout without drinking. More comfortable and relaxing study spaces please!
Study spaces are well equipped, student support is also very helpful when in need of assistance for most issues. The organisation of some courses and communication with lecturers etc. can be poor sometimes, creating delays in course work or not supplying information quick enough to implement it into coursework etc.

Humanities is being defunded to the point that the majority of my modules are not directly linked to my degree. The NCS was not even mentioned when I chose the univerity making my choice not as informed as it could have been. In other words, i chose dundee for a number of modules that i was interested in taking that where no longer available when the year started
.
Some courses have changed and do not include some of the modules that were advertised. The humanities in particular have suffered from reduced funding. The psychology course is excellent and very engaging. Philosophy is well managed and also engaging with a good range of topics. The campus is generally wonderful to walk around.

Buildings to have labs and lectures are close to each other. Too expensive for international students to study my course
Lecturers and instructors are intelligent and helpful. Workload is really heavy though.
