The university usually markets itself as the best university in the world before receiving any money. However, especially for international students, the document processing can be delayed for a long time, such as 1 month. This not only makes them fall behind in their education but also makes it difficult to make friends. The shock of coming to another country brings many problems with it. The accommodation units of the university are definitely inadequate and most students have to look for houses in remote parts of the city. It is also quite difficult to find a job. Nevertheless, it has a system that deserves to be among the best in England in terms of education. After that, its very positive feature is that it is located in a small and cute city and in a very airy place. In addition, the university authorities, especially the units such as the student life center and international student admissions, are absolutely helpful and do their job with a smile regardless of the person. read more

I am on the BEng Tech (Hons) top up online course. I find the learning materials poor quality. The audio files are of a lecturer in a classroom wandering around. Often indistinct and therefore impossible to follow. I have given up listening to them. The PowerPoint files are of poor quality and difficult to interpret. Support by the nominated lecturer is non-existence and when reluctantly given, unhelpful. I would strongly recommend not taking the BEng Tech (Hons) top up degree here. You have been warned! read more

Beware of this university they will actually ruin your life if you are an international student seeking for a better life for you and your family before you think I am a disgruntled student have a look at the recent news about how they have been kicking students out for no reason. I am unfortunately a victim of this where there is so many racism within the university facilities. Many international students are failing miserably here and they have been marking people of colours very harshly compared to the locals (no hate tho). These tutors and second markers are aware of how much trouble they will put students into when failing them unnecessarily. So please save your money elsewhere because coming here is basically setting yourself up for failure. read more

As someone hailing from Kerala, India, I found it pleasantly surprising that cultural differences weren't a barrier, and everyone was treated with equal respect. Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed the library, sports and recreational areas, and the class room area provided a perfect space to mingle with friends. Additionally, post graduate society weekly activities helped combat any feelings of homesickness. I wholeheartedly recommend this campus to both local and international students. read more

Students Union is monopolised by students basically forcing their own religious beliefs on other students. They try to hide it, but they don't support LGBTQ activities or societies because it's illegal in their home countries. International student representation is good, but they should represent all students - not just their beliefs. read more

The university is not good at all, and their goal is clearly just making money and providing job opportunities for their people. I am studying MSc in civil engineering and will graduate in 2 months, and I have not seen any labs yet. Also, I have no idea about any concrete test because we don't do any practical work. No support for students employment. I booked an appointment with a staff member to get "help" about improving skills and experience, but they just told me it is hard to get a job here without having experience and I can do volunteering with other companies. She suggested the volunteering opportunities they provide, which really dates back to 3-4 years ago. I wish I was able to give zero star. read more

The university is a greedy business that tries to cut costs wherever possible. There is no good support for students leaving uni. I was expecting the uni to have connections with perspective employers but they don't. They just show you some job websites. They rely zero-hour contracted lecturers. It's a business and that's do and the students are customers, who do not matter. read more
