I've found my time here to be boring and disappointing. Lectures are so useless half the time most of the course don't attend and the staff are left wondering why, even though it's painfully obvious. Most staff are decent enough, but you don't ever feel any sense of community or comradery with fellow course-mates or staff. Booking any of the uni facilities can be a bureaucratic hell, 'make sure you email so and so, add this to your RA, have you cleared this with so and so?' etc. It is a major deterrent against doing anything unless you really have to. Local clubs get old very quickly and if you're not into nightlife you're going to struggle.

i think the uni really does have the students best interests at heart. the cleanliness of the toilets needs to be improved (especially in the library) and more normal bins need to be around - i get the recycling aspect but with no normal bins people just end up putting non recycling in the recycling bins

So far my BU experience has been alright, I'm a BSc mental health nursing student. My experience with the staff has been overwhelmingly positive. Bournemouth itself can be a little bit intimidating if you're not from a larger population centre as it can be a bit rough around the edges. the night life is okay and there's plenty to see and do.

The university was boring, basic and a waste of money. This is more specified to my course which I understand but there were too many students on the course which they clearly didn’t know how to control. The lessons were spread out in uneven ways and felt like a waste of time when attending anyway. Some tutors were good but others were terrible and clearly lack any creativity themselves. Overall the experience was disappointing and ultimately a waste of time and money.

It's a good uni, does the job but nothing special. My course is absolutely fabulous (multimedia journalism) and TV production is good but I would not recommend coming here for any other course. I would highly recommend the journalism course if you want to be ready for industry. I've enjoyed my time at BU, the beach is great despite being packed in the summer, my course has been fabulous and I even got to go on study exchange. BU make placement compulsory, you are expected to sort this out yourself which can be challenging. There's always space in the library, there's an (expensive) pub on campus and it's nice to be by the beach. There's no fancy end of year ball/black tie dinner but a day festival ran by the SU in summer which is fun. Bournemouth is a town, which for me got boring pretty fast. The shops are so bad and there's barely any independent cafes. The uni is full of people from surrey, barely any diversity, the nightlife is pretty dull apart from the odd event.

I couldn’t have chosen a better university. The university is excellent. Lecturers are enthusiastic, stimulating and engaging. I think it’s important to note that none of the staff are striking, which really highlights how much they care about our learning. Only negative side to studying at Bournemouth is that the accommodations are more expensive than other universities (£6000+ cheapest).

Generally the uni is a very open, welcoming place. Plenty of clubs and societies to choose from, despite the fact I joined and didn’t attend any meetings lol! Lecturers are all helpful and willing to assist on coursework. We had ice breaker activities to make friends which was really helpful, especially in my course which is film- where you need to make “allies”. Lots of places to study on campus too.

Bournemouth University is a brilliant university to study and develop. The Dorset area is rich with amazing sights, and things to do for any student. The Talbot campus is wonderful, with a massive variety of courses, facilities, clubs to be apart of. 9/10
