You don't get taught on this course, you basically come up with your own project, so long as you meet the requirements asked. This can be nice, but not a lot happens otherwise. You are basically left to it. Would be nice to have more activities to interact with peers more. Staff seem quite disorganised sometimes, communication can be poor. Some days I walk in and there is no one there, no staff in sight and no students. Not surprised no one turns up sometimes. Doesn't feel like there's a huge effort put in from staff to be honest. Maybe it's the nature of the course, but I honestly think this course could be better and have more of a community feel.

Photography, BA Hons FullTime

Tutors are rather proactive with encouraging us to enter photography competitions and as well as having portfolio reviews with industry professionals. They let us know if they have people looking for photographers, plus weekly guest talks! So there are some great industry links. The content is great - a mix of practical and academic. I would say the writing part is very minimal though read more

Our tutors are not very good at communicating with us what's going on, and as far as I know we don't have personal tutors, but I'm still enjoying it at the end of the day! read more
