best is everything is perfect
The university is brilliant. The staff are amazing teaching staff and support staff. The only negative I would say at the moment is that the bravehood is absolutely disgusting and the doors to our accommodation keep breaking, but I think that's more human error than university's problem. The university has so many opportunities to take part in loads of different things that look brilliant on your CV and help you make friends. It's been an amazing experience to get to know everybody. The teaching staff are always happy to have a chat. They're complete so welcoming and completely understand human situations. It feels like everybody at the University is human and they all understand what it's like to be a student and I think that's really important. There are loads of ways to get involved with University and external Lincoln life. They're always advertising different opportunities. Their career service is incredible, even from first year. Their guidance and support has been incredibly appreciated. They're always working hard to make sure everybody is financially stable. They have loads of ways that you can access money if you're struggling. Access part-time jobs if you can't find one, including on campus and trusted off campus.
The university has been so supportive with my mental health. Campus is beautiful and the facilities are modern and constantly improving. The city itself is such a beautiful place to live and so lively. Nightlife is amazing every night and there are so many good opportunities for students.
I love the university campus and the city, my course is interesting and challenges me enough to keep me on my toes but not so much that I feel overwhelmed.
Lincoln is such a great upcoming university. it is modern friendly. overall a great place to be. with wide access to several libraries its the students choice where they would like to work, everywhere is respectfully quite to successfully work productively. and for groups that need to be in a room have option to get a room is easy where you don't have to be quite. the campus isn't exactly a large campus which means navigating to lectures is very easy. and if anyone gets lost students and staff are very friendly and willing to help.
Some areas are more modern than others. The fact that the campus is by the Brayford is really nice though.
The support has been brilliant and the course programmes structured. I will recommend it to others.
At the University of Lincoln there are man opportunities for you to get involved in student life, the societies and sports societies are a great way to meet new people and to try out something different, they are also a way to welcome you and help you feel part of the university. Teaching staff are all approachable and eager to help you out.
My favourite part of my experience thus far has been the atmosphere - you'll feel very welcome at Lincoln.
The best aspect of Lincoln is the city itself, it is a really nice, affordable place to live and I’ve met some of the best people here. I stayed in uni accommodation for my first year and it was very nice and the maintenance support was efficient. The worst part of Lincoln is the fact some of the chairs are old and need replacing and are missing tables
The location is nice enough, quite modern, especially the Issac Newton building, despite being surrounded by a lake with green sludge on the top which doesn't make for a pleasant thing to see each day - very annoying, however that it was built in the middle of a train track. There are a few lecturers and seminar leaders who know how to teach however they are in the majority. Facilities are always broken, and for the majority are not modern at all, you receive constant emails about something or other being broken. The teaching standards on the course are horrendous, with students constantly talking at full volume the entire time, and not a single lecturer in two years of this has told anyone to be quiet. I'm sure I've heard more of my peers' voices than I have any lecturers. The teaching that goes on in the lectures consists of just reading off of the slides and adding no additional context, with some taking so long that we are behind schedule for half the year due to previous lectures needing to be finished before new ones are started. As for student life and the students' union, neither take into account commuting students, I feel as though people at the university forget that people commute to university. Nothing is made accessible for commuters, with everything being late at night when no trains or buses are running, and timetables are made poorly without commuters in mind, I have spent more time walking around Lincoln in between lectures and waiting for transport due to the poor timings than I have in lectures this year so far.
Great environment. Love the surrounding area. It gives the uni a lovely atmosphere
The uni is perfectly placed for any party goers or people who prefer to stay in. Plenty of accommodation around both uni managed and private. The city is walkable and nice to be in. The uni is on an easily manageable campus and most lecture theatres are well set up and easy to learn in. Although it may not stand out as top academically, it is still an amazing university to go to, for life experience and learning
There are a lot of student-based events that are easy to take part in as they can be found on the student union app and are given across the campus as leaflets, there are also several ways to be given help around the university. However, apart from certain events including parties and sports, several students do not seem to attend events due to not knowing about them as the majority are found on the Student Union app which several students either do not have or do not have notifications for.
I believe it’s a great place to study at because of the amount of t of resources support and facilities it gives student
Great campus in a great city, although the train tracks bisecting the campus can be a little bit annoying, but you get used to it. Only one month in so far but the course is great. I don't go out often but when I do want to there is always loads going on. Loads of good societies to choose from.
