Campus is very pretty and it inspires students to do productive study in the University facilities. The sports facilities are great however could be cheaper considering the fact that it's mostly used by students.
Great campus, small town, everything geared towards students
cottrell need improving although some doors open automatically the doors where you have to pull down and towards you are tricky with disability, also disabled toilet tricky to lock and open uni needs to do more for those with sensory issues need more location info, easy to get lost in diffrent coreders
Good societies, gym, sports facilities, and workload. Scotland and Stirling course depts. Are good for flexibility of course if you wanna switch.
Best- gorgeous campus, good lecturers, lots of facilities. It's a bit annoying not being in Stirling itself, but there's a uni link bus which is pretty quick. Takes ages to arrive on nights out sometimes tho. There only being 1 club isn't great but it's fine if you only go out for sports socials like I do.
Nice
Love the new facilities but not enough studying spaces for all students Construction work takes too long I Love the close knit community and student support Teaching is excellent
I feel like the university is at the same educational levels as the others in the country. The campus is great, the teaching staff is excellent. In terms of communication between the uni and the students there is some place of improvement.
The town isn’t very diverse and inclusive and there is no student life in town. The uni has some events. The people in most clubs and societies in uni arent inclusive or welcoming. The campus is beautiful and all my lecturers are great
Thought union was going to better and accommodations need revamped but overall I'm enjoying my course and modules and I have found a good social life.
the classes and lecture halls are good. though i travel so i don't spend much time at the uni so I cannot comment on it.
The best aspects are, the campus, the size of it and how everything is in the one place and that it doesn’t take long to go from one building to another (even though it does feel like it when you’re walking from Cottrell to Pathfoot). It could be improved by having a cheaper shop on campus. The co-op was somewhat expensive but the Nisa local is even worse! However, I understand that it may be outwith the university’s control.
The campus is great and the facilities are all around excellent. There could be more outside lighting on the way to accommodation as when it gets dark there are a lot of dark spaces.
The university staff are amazing and the student experience has been the best time of my life however the prices on campus are increasingly high especially in the campus shop it’s simply unaffordable the feel of the campus in the last academic year especially has deteriorated hugely (not at fault of the university due to RAC) Stirling’s a beautiful campus with amazing library facilities and the most supportive staff I’ve came across but things like the students union and lack of space gives a feel of an overcrowded uni

Eco-friendly
Lovely campus, lecturers with great knowledge and passion, and friendly members of staff in student services. Even though campus is beautiful it is not very accessible with public transport as buses are unreliable. There’s not plenty of things to do around Stirling, so joining a sport club or another society through the uni might be your best bet if you want to do something fun alongside your studies.
