Design studies, University of Central Lancashire (UCLan)

The course has great lectures who have been in the industry

Good support from most Teachers

the course has helped me so much with developing my skills and prospects

90% of 1st year was covering old ground from my games design college course but anyone new to the subject will find it more enjoyable. 2nd year has better ability to specialise but there is a lot more work to do outside the classroom. 3rd year has only 2 projects but on a much larger scale and they can be presented at the UCLan exhibition. The tutors are too carefree and brush over some topics but are mostly very pleasant. Equipment and studio could do with an update but it is sufficient.

Course is okay. Most of the tutors are horrible to talk to, as they will most likely will not help you, but be rude to you instead; whilst the other half are the opposite. The course overall is okay though

Most Teachers are unorganised, don't listen to students opinions. Hand out YouTube videos instead of actually teaching us. Awful computers and software that breaks a lot, my computer at home is way better. Not sure what £9000 is going towards each year.

I love the course I am but it does have its downfalls. Teachers do not communicate with each other and students enough and they can be very disorganised. And £9,000 a year for it? Nah it's not worth that much, the computers don't work half the time
