The student union has honestly been one of the best parts of my uni experience. It’s such a welcoming space, there’s always something happening, from fun events to helpful workshops. The staff and student reps are so supportive and really listen to what we need. I’ve met amazing people here, grabbed countless coffees between classes, and always feel part of a real community. read more

The campus is beautiful and facilities are adequate. The food is reasonably priced especially for bath. There are mainly gender neutral toilets but there are some gendered toilets. The campus is split into 2 parts which is alright if you want to get your steps in. However, this can make days stressful as the timetabling is awful with some students having back to back lessons all day on opposite sides of campus. Cramped timetabling so far has been hugely detrimental to my learning as I have no time to eat lunch so updating or reviewing notes is impossible. The WiFi can be very hit or miss. Especially when logging attendance on the BSU app due to the high volume of people at the same time. read more

My experience at Bath Spa University has been truly rewarding. The faculty members are not only highly knowledgeable but also approachable and genuinely invested in students’ growth, both academically and personally. The campus provides excellent resources, from well-equipped libraries and labs to modern study spaces that encourage collaboration and creativity. One of the things I value most is the supportive and diverse community, it feels like a place where everyone belongs. There are plenty of opportunities for involvement outside the classroom as well, whether through student organizations, cultural events, or research initiatives. The university also does a great job of preparing students for the future, with strong career services, internships, and industry connections. Overall, I feel proud to be a part of Bath Spa University, and I’m confident the skills and experiences I’ve gained here will serve me well beyond graduation. read more

So many clubs, societies and everyone's incredibly welcoming. You can join anytime although taster sessions run after freshers week. 90% are free due to funding from Bath Spa - meaning you can try out anything you'd like! There's lots of student union events during freshers however it does slightly reduce afterwards (which is understandable). read more

I've really enjoyed my time at Bath Spa so far. The campus is beautiful and has a peaceful, creative atmosphere that makes it a great place to study. The staff are supportive, and the architecture course has challenged me in a good way – it’s hands-on, with a strong focus on design thinking and sustainability. There’s a good balance between academic learning and practical work, and I’ve met some great people along the way. Looking forward to continuing into my second year. read more

Bath Spa have two campuses, and I'm situated at Locksbrook Campus. It has a good variety of workshops and technical equipment. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my university campus- however something that I think should be improved on, is there is very little seating at Locksbrook. Compared to Newton Park which has so many spots for quiet study out of class time, Locksbrook had very few. Especially when exhibitions on and tables and chairs are removed to make space. read more
