Open Day

Are you thinking of applying to this university?

Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.

Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.

Lots of variations of modules, lots of books to buy/ loan ect. Some staff were also post grad students so we didn’t get their full attention or dedication. The rest of the staff were great and supportive and passionate about our journey

Most of the teachers are supportive. Semester 2 seems to be harder than semester 1.

As I have only completed semester one of year one I can only talk about the first year but it is clear to me that the course not only prepares you for your future studies and career but covers a wide range of topics enhancing your knowledge and applicable skills.

Our time table is very flexible and the quality of teaching is excellent no one goes out of the lecture without understanding. After our assessments we always get feedback from the lecturers. The seminars are very helpful in all the modules

The timetable was good as although it was full-time it felt part-time allowing time for part-time work in the week. Tutors were all lovely and willing to help. My reason for 4 stars is because the course content wasn’t always to my enjoyment however I knew the content before applying.
