Good and knowledgeable lecturers, very enjoyable, interesting and useful course and a good campus with lots of stuff
BCU feels lacking compared to rivals such as Aston in terms of facilities and the student union. Whilst there are a lot of good societies there is no common student area, unlike Aston and UOB that have dedicated Student union buildings. BCU just has a pub that only a few students go to and beyond drinking is not a suitable.

Although the facilities are great , the mental health facilities could be improved
University does well to keep up with students and make sure they work to the best of their ability
The sound campus I study at is great with a number of facilities for food and good place to sit and have a chat with friends.
I feel as though they could provide more support for those who really need extra help
I studied at 2buildings which are all different but the environment is so good.
Very good, location wise very good. Can access a bus from town easily. Only issue is finding accommodation near to both campuses.

The uni is good and it is very accessible from my accommodation. The staff is very nice and welcoming and I’ve had a great time there so far.
Royal Birmingham Conservatoire is fantastic, don't mess us up with BCU
Been here 4 years and is still a fab uni :)
Amazing university, with great staff and support.
Good wifi, lovely modern building and campus which I love.
I’m in first year and so far so good. Don’t have anything to complain about. Good campus however more social events could be held
Great university teachers and lecturers are very kind
There is a lot to do in Birmingham
Bcu has been great, lots of help and great for learning
It feels to me that the student union only really consists of the eagle and ball, which is very small and doesn’t feel student oriented. However I do think the university itself has brilliant facilities, support and communication and I enjoy my course!
I like the uni however compared to other universities their student union is a club / fun environment to be in whereas the bcu is very small and formal.
University amenities for students are very limited and poor
The cost for the years is too expensive considering there is no semester 3 teaching
Nice campus area and friendly environment
Birmingham City University has amenities for students aid, lectures willing to help students in their educational endeavors it is a great experience learning at BCU.
I’m very happy with the facilities, the staff are so helpful and are more than happy to offer extra support which is so appreciated. one concern is that the careers part is usually booked up very difficult to get an appointment, but that must mean it works! i have not joined any clubs or societies but i have friends that have and they enjoy it so much and have recommended to me on multiple occasions
decent university, does what the intention is
Birmingham City University is a very nice and comfortable place. I love the way of study here. The teachers are kind and they teach you until you understand
I enjoy the community and the staff around the area

Not applicable! I don't want to speak about it.
