I enjoy that it will set me up well for my professional course next year improvement, is i think the course could be taught in a shorter period of time rather than longing it out

very spacious and lots of storage least would be the price going up whislt living here isn’t fair on us

I think for us international student it can be more better if they keep more training or stuff like learning something we have never learn. I think they need to keep some classes like how can we survive well and how to do assignment and stuff like that. People are suffering from depression and anxiety a lot of stuff so they need to conduct some program for mental health awareness. And there should be a lot of different program because there are people from different countries so they can make really good use of that. I think there should be some stuff where people can talk with each other and have fun. And for stuff like work also university should support student and there should be scholarships too.

The course of Logistcis and Supply Chain Management is second to noe, with very interesting modules like Global Strategy, Operations and Value Chain, Project Management, Contract and Procurement, Managing Sustainable futures. Each module is taught and encourages self research and learning on these subjects for us to become subject amtter experts in Supply Chain Management.

Best - support is always available Worst - SAFs don't tell you what the uni's expectations for the best grades are

Best - How close you are with other people on your course Worst - maintenance requests sometimes take a while/ a few attempts

All content such a slecture slides, worksheets, assifnment information documents and extra reading materials for all modules within the course is usually readily available on the Blackboard website and their are library service which are useful for multiple things such as researching, checking citations and referencing, etc. The only negative is that it can take some time for some lecturers to add needed content to Blackboard which as a visually impaired student is useful to be able to access and puts me at a disadvantage if I can't.

Both St Johns and City campys feature halls of residence and are nice and modern and have 24/7 security. Rooms feature a reasonably comfortable bed (although bed sheets, bedding and pillows are not provided) and most room feature a decently sized desk which is good to have multiple items on such as a TV, laptop, games console, etc. Some rooms feature en-suite bathrooms which are modern and work well in my experience. Free Wi-Fi is available in halls through a network provider called Glide which are similar to Eduroam. You create an account with Glide and when you connect a new device to the network you only have to sign into the network. Some devices are easier to connect than others as to be able to connect to the Internet you have to sign in through the online portal, however Glide does allow you to enroll devices to your account using their unique MAC address so that they can access the Internet if they don't have a browser such as smart speakers or game consoles. Internet speeds can vary but I have managed to get speeds as fast as over 100mb/s download and 80mb/s upload on my phone (which for people who dont know whay thsse numbers mean, that is pretty fast!) However these speeds aren't always consistent and there have been times where the Internet has gone down or has been slow but in my experience, this has not happened very often. Kitchens and common areas are nice and spacious and feature plenty of cupboard for storage for food and kitchen items and some kitchens feature two sinks and 2 ovens. Recycling facilities are close by to halls as well as laundry. Laundry is relatively cheap with most washes costing £2.60 and a dry costing £1.20. Whilst these prices seem cheap, it can quickly build up especially if you have many loads of washing and drying to do. (I would personally recommend an airer to dry clothes as this has helped to save me money on drying my clothes!). Postage services are available on both St John's and City Campus with an Amazon locker even being on St John's campus for some amazon items for easy collection. Payments for the rooms are aligned with payment dates for maintenence loans from Student Finance and can be done in quarterly installments (every 3 months). Utilities such as gas, electric and water are all included within the room fees which makes paying for that much easier.

I like lectures in the classroom, wouldn't be happy with online options.

I like the idea of doing different modules including normal science ones

We constantly had no WiFi, hot water or even electricity. We could not shower for 2 weeks as we had no water pressure then hot water. Student accommodation were appalling at sorting issues and we had to report no wifi around 100 times. Everything was broken and dirty where there were stains on the sofa seats in the kitchen and was genuinely not worth the money.

Masters level course with a lot of self-directed learning

Skills sessions and practicals (not including placement) are crucial for all learners, and should be implemented more frequently. The course content is well structured and is thorough.

This is a spacious and modern building which has a great view of the campus. The kitchen and bedrooms have lots of storage space and are equipped with good quality facilities. However, there is no internal heating inside the flat, which can make it cold to live there.

Not a lot of support with assignment writing directly from the lecturer of the module. Some content can be condensed down into shorter lectures.
