I moved into ENSO Student Accommodation about 10 days ago, and so far, it’s been great! The place is clean, modern, and really comfortable. The staff have been super helpful with the move-in process, and everything feels well organized. The location is also very convenient — close to shops and campus. So far, I’m really happy with my choice! read more

I’m currently studying MSc Advanced Computer Science at the University of Essex, Colchester Campus, and my experience so far has been fantastic. The course is well structured and covers a wide range of relevant topics including machine learning, AI, software engineering, and research methods. The lecturers are supportive, knowledgeable, and approachable, which makes a big difference, especially for international students. The facilities on campus are excellent – from modern computer labs and 24/7 library access to collaborative workspaces that are great for group projects. The Colchester campus itself is vibrant and full of life, with plenty of green space, cafes, a gym, and student events happening regularly. It’s a great environment for both academic focus and social life. If you’re looking to study computer science at a university that blends strong academics with a welcoming student community, I highly recommend the University of Essex. read more

Studying at the University of Essex has been a really great opportunity I had achieved and I'm so greatful to come and study at this University. The modules were helpful and I learned something in every module. The professors sharing the same creative background as the subjects was very helpful as I got many insightful insights about the creative industry. The campus is huge. I tried to explore as much as I could and it is beautiful. I had a great time with my friends attending all the events that happened on campus and I'm excited for the upcoming ones too. It's a bittersweet moment now that I know I am finishing my Uni days in a couple weeks. I had a great time studying at the University of Essex and I'm gonna miss these days going forward but I'm also happy that I got to live these days to the fullest and created some amazing memories. read more
