Staffordshire University is a great place for your studies, the facilities are all well equipped and nothing is missing at all, I find it hard to find thing to improve since it is all already perfect the way it is
There are newer buildings with more up to date technology which helps studying a little bit easier but also more enjoyable.
Better parking is the main issue ive had so far but the campus shops are decent with alright prices and people are easy to contact if hepp is needed in any capacity.
The actual course is very slow and i fel like a lot of my lectures are more like a waste of time, as im not learning a whole lot. The uni puts on a lot of events which is nice, and i feel like i have a lot of support which is important.
Improve the facilities
The student community is great. There is always someone to ask questions and the student reps are always there to help.
The mentors and staff are all so supportive and make the course so interesting. I like to come into university knowing I’m going to go home knowing stuff I didn’t at the start of the day. The campus is all new and updated, it’s great.
some of the teachers really know their stuff. They really understand the subject and are passionate .
Easy to access and great parking facilities. I really enjoy the fact everything is in one building. The lecturers always go above and beyond to help ans make learning easy and fun.
I think that there should be more union workshops as most of the workshops are on the Stoke campus. I would be more interested to join if there was a variety of different union activities nearer stafford if they did this.
University is really good, especially chris howard such a great teacher. The equipment is all good with the latest technology

Fabulous lecturers! So supportive and helpful.
The university has probably the best location, good enough distance from resources and accomodations. The campus is full of buildings with shops to accommodate your needs, want a coffee? Need some stationary? Home utilities? They have it!
The facilities are very good and the staff here is nice and caring. The campus feels safe and the lecturers are extremely good at connecting with students and giving them a good experience while also upholding the standard of teaching. However, the student life in Stoke on Trent is minimal and it can easily get boring.

Really easy to access. Friendly and helpful staff and students. Parking is exrtemely limited at the college road campus ( I have never been able to park there), but usually plenty available at Leek road campus, although is a good 10 minutes walk which is challenging if you have quite a commute to get to lectures on time! Some of the lecture spaces are not set up very well to support whole cohort engagement and some lectures there has not been enough space for all the students, but that is rare! Timetables support learners with childcare responsibilities with a combination of face to face, online and self study sessions.
Fantastic University with great support, all of the staff are very approachable and are happy to answer questions.
It would be good if they more events on at the uni or more fundraisers

The support is unreal. And they make sure you are settled safe and have the right resources to live and study at ease.
The building is modern and its kept all up to date inside, with opportunities to do some direct self study using the computers or loaning a laptop. The library is fantastic with the self service. The skill sessions using the simulator dummies are mind blowing, so fantastic! Most students i have spoken to outside of this university wished they had come to study at Stafford, so i feel lucky to be doing my studies here. It is so easy accessible inside, you cannot get lost. The support from all the staff is amazing. It did not take e long to settle in at all. All the support a student could ever want and need is all under one roof! It is a breath of fresh air studying here at Stafford. My only regret is that i did not come here sooner! From my first open day i knew this was were i wanted to do study and it is a privilege. My tutors are so supportive, even when i am not in university they are always on the end of an email, nothing is ever too much for them.


Lovely people
More online learning I prefer it
