I studied mental health nursing, my experience was awful, tutor failed to sign off my work at a clinical skills workshop due to them "forgetting". When I raised the concern it was swiftly ignored. I was informed by a tutor that previous assessors can sign work off on placement retrospectively, however a week before I was due to finish said placement the tutor in question changed his mind and lied about ever giving me false information, which resulted in my failing the module. I requested to have an essay remarked or relooked at, this was also ignored. I raised a concern on placement about an assessor discriminating me, the outcome was, the university failed me for doing so and made me redo a placement from the start. When I finally did finish all the required work, the university informed me that my assessor on my final placement had not signed something off, this was false, if it had not been for my assessor on placement, emailing several times with evidence, I would have failed.
Average uni experience located in an alright spot
I came from China to the UK and studied here for a year for my future. To be honest, I did not fully devote myself to my studies, but I believe I have done my best and obtained the knowledge I want. A degree is one-sided, but I believe the knowledge I have gained can also be effectively utilized in my future work. Anyway, I will remember and miss this school when I return to my hometown

I like how homely the university feels, it’s not as overwhelming as other universities I’ve been to. The campus is beautiful regardless of the weather/season and it’s always so nice to study in. The lecturers are so supportive, I’m in my first year and I’m beyond grateful for the understanding and helpful staff. I haven’t really taken off in clubs and societies so I can’t really speak on those but from what I’ve seen I’ll give it a middle score.
Great Facilities, Friendly Staff!
All of the staff at the university are helpful, friendly and accommodating! The social scene is great and the careers service have been particularly helpful in setting me up for success!
Great uni, good academic, food and sports facilities, friendly and helpful staff :)
A good university and enjoyed the learning experience. It would be better if efforts could be made to make the library a more quiet place to study
The uni of huddersfield is a nice and lovely school
Very good, the teachers and students are very good, I can learn a lot from this
Good facilities and valuable courses. Never gonna regret for coming here.
Good university,provides adequate support.
Small campus which is good when you’re in different locations for your lectures. The Stident central has everything you need from cafes to shops
Personally I’m not on campus very often to comment widely on, but from hearing other people’s views on my course and from my Accomodation flat it seems to work for everyone
I’ve really enjoyed my time at university and think it’s a very good Uni and very clean
It’s alright to be fair not too bad.
It’s a diverse and inclusive campus, with tons of events and societies to take part in.
As an international disabled student, it's not easy for me. It's so challenging to live and has accessible access to the university. For almost four years I am here didn't see improvement for disabled students especially related to careers and job opportunities. I am still struggling with funds with no support system.
Alright not really student friendly
Good experience. Uni always try to help and support you, and find things that fit for you. They do their best to include you and help around your studies
This accommodation is very accessible to everything you need. The staff is amazing and people are friendly.
Not bad but nothing special. A few of the staff are good but most aren’t. Most courses are pointless
Very nice university ,staff is help and supportive ,work is manageable !
Campus is nice to be in, tutors are friendly and easy to access. Support is given if it is needed. Lots of work has been taking place renovating and building new buildings flr students
Best experience. Excellent education
Huddersfield university has a great campus with amazing facilities, i specifically appreciate the library facilities as i spend most of my time there. The campus grounds are scenic and the staff at the university are always kind and helpful.
Great podiatry course/services and staff on the module. Don’t have much to with the student union so I can’t comment on that aspect.
The university has amazing facilities and supportive staff. However, I am a 2nd year adult nursing bsc student and typically receive one on campus lecture every 2 weeks which jeopardises my learning.
University of Huddersfield is a clustered campus university and it’s convenient to get from one place to another. The Student Union offer exciting events and the SU shop accommodates for essentials like food, drinks, merch and the day-to-day-amenities. The library is a comfortable place to study with rooms ranging from presentation ones to the silent floors. The food outlets offer a wide range of delicious dishes and change daily so there’s always variety!
Fine place, some issues with specific lectures
Amazing staff in the biological science department
The teachers in the university as well as several other members of staff are extremely accommodating and helpful at providing worthwhile education
Great teaching, reasonable work load, great support. I plan to continue my studies here.
Great campus, accessible facilities and great little town
Very good university - great disability dupport
Love the uni but s*** night life
Great campus, lecturers are great.
Facilities are very good. However, staff hours are regularly being reduced, creating a strain on teaching staff and impacting the quality of education
Nice campus. Easy to navigate around. Clean. Friendly staff
multicultural. the common room for international study centre always smells like armpit. but the teachers are all very nice and thoughtful
My experience so far has been a very enjoyable one, my course has been very interesting and informative.
University is great, and they can help with a lot.
I fell in love with this university the day I visited with college. The building is beautiful and there are so many facilities to help develop my skills over the course of my time here. The staff are amazing and make me feel at home especially Matthew.
the campus is big and beautiful, and doesn’t lack anything you need.
I like Huddersfield University because of it diversities of people .
It’s a decent uni with everything that’s needed. The prices in the student union shop is super expensive but other than that it’s a decent area
It is crucial to deliver paper-based tickets for international students and staff at Student Central of the university, they can take it as their favourite event.
takes alot of time to service and did not met my expectation
Great facilities, beautiful library and campus and student's union have your back!
Not many interesting societies, wifi is great tho
It’s really good university, and nice town, the ppl in here is nice and teaching is really good everything makes me so happy in here
The courses were very good, the students were very good, the teachers were very interesting, very responsible, gave me a lot of work opportunities, lots of activities, the library was very big, there were students from different countries, so I had a great experience at Huddersfield University
I have great experience here. The facilities, services are all good! Also I like the environment here, and it is close to town center which is really convenient. I like it really much!
A great place to study, the staff are very professional and the teaching quality is excellent.
When i first joined the University in 2021, i was welcome by amazing and kind staff who were passionate about the University and the high quality of there teaching and facilities. There isn't a part of the University which is not clean to an incredible standard. I have recommended the university to many friends due to how amazing my experience has been.
Very good university; they hear and understand the students, I’m enjoying my course and life at Huddersfield
great lovely space lovely tutors and everyone is nice
Great university , best teachers
There are a lot of support given in many different areas such as employability and placement, immigration, student activities etc. I would recommend joining the su societies and make new friends!!
Great campus and good teaching staff, just try to add computers in the study rooms as well.
An honour to be here as it’s a special place providing everything for students from tools study area society’s and more excited for what’s next
The campus is very modern and close together
Excellent and state of the art campus and facilities for study.
I recommend if you’re looking to study for a career, it’s quiet and easy to learn with fellow students
very good university, very good location and very good stuff
Mid to be honest, this university needs a lot of improvement and particularly more organisation on the part of my course.
Good campus and SU! Puts students at the forefront of priorities.
Unfortunately, I have had a really poor experience at the university over the past year. I did my Under Graduate here a few years ago and loved it. However, I returned to do some taught postgraduate modules and lots had changed for the worse! My personal support plan for a learning difficulty was still on file but despite pointing it out to lecturers early on it was disregarded during marking and I was forced to appeal. The school gave a very poor response to this. They even failed to issue the response within the timeframe outlined. I was then forced to escalate to registry, and they eventually found in my favour. However, I am still waiting for the school of health to rectify its mistakes. For anyone with a learning difficulty or disability, I would avoid it. In my opinion, having attended 5 universities to complete postgraduate courses, this was by far the least supportive for students with learning difficulties.
Good uni, supportive lecturers and tutors.
Cannot really comment on the facilities as my nursing course has been predominantly online for the last two years. So not got much use out of them. However, the library is great.
I had a pleasant experience at university studying software engineering, the campus and facilities provides you with everything required for you to do your work. My only suggestion is that clubs and societies should be better advertised.
Good campus. Everything is very near by
As a student you get a lot of support from the staff as they are very friendly and ready to help you with anything you're not sure about.
Incredible, the kmense difference compared to my previous university. Seams like all tutors are not here for a pay packet but a for the love of teaching students. And the students night out on my student union are incredible.
Really good uni. Love the course. Wifi is insane (can't remember exact speeds but you won't be struggling thats for sure).
I have enjoyed university so far. Everything is relatively easy to access.
I have loved my time here so far! Looking forward to the future years
The University of Huddersfield is great, I really enjoy the university and the Student Union in particular is amazing!
university is fine, better than living with your parents and doing nothing all day, would reccommend if you need a fresh start
An excellent university with helpful staff. I always know where to get help and the staff are so friendly. The societies and clubs are broad and all are very friendly.
Great university with a friendly atmosphere and very good buildings and facilities
inconsiderate in terms of marking and does not take into account personal circumstances and the affect of COVID.
Loads of clubs and societies to join. There's also a large range of places to eat on campus
Note - my only experience of this university was when lockdowns were omnipresent. I studied computer science. Ignore my star ratings. Really poor teaching. More than 1 have difficult accents that, when combined with intricate modules, makes for a solid 0/10 learning experience in which you must learn the content via third-party books and the internet. 1 teacher does nothing but read (painfully slow) the contents off the slides — slides of which are pretty barren themselves. The programming module is fine up until it arrives at OOP, which if this is your first experience with OOP, will almost definitely be a bad time. Difficult concepts (for beginners) are brushed over and leave you struggling to understand. The module that covered algorithms was decent; no real complaints there. If you find yourself in the UoH Computing discord, you'll find that similar complaints of teacher incompetence are rather common. TEF ratings are meaningless. In none covid times things may be better for you.
Nice environment. Spacious for reading
The uni is full of facilities for anything a student might need, and the staff are friendly and helpful, both on academic topics and more personal ones.
My university experience has been very good so far, considering that most of our learning was all online. The tutors have all been extremely helpful. The teaching has been all very good quality and all of the assignments were explained very well beforehand, the assignments were all spaced out quite nicely which helped the students with time management.
Super friendly and supportive. All my lecturers have been really helpful for my first year at university. The music society that have sorted out quizzes and other virtual activities for the beginning of the year as well as occasional activities throughout the rest of the year.
The University is fine. West Yorkshire is a pretty disgusting place though. Huddersfield is a boring town.
It’s a good university and a lot of facilities available
Campus is really nice and eye catching, in town so everything is walking distance, didnt have an opportunity to join societies or be on campus much due to covid but hopefully next year, I would have more opportunities to explore the uni
At first I worried about choosing a university, since I am an international student and did not know any recommendations. But I am pleasantly surprised and very glad that I chose this university. It impressed me with its responsiveness, willingness to help and preparedness for the situation with covid-19. I am not afraid to ask questions, take part in lessons and do my best.
Great! Enjoying the university so far, I have struggled but the University has helped me realise my diagnosis.
The campus is nice and pretty easy to get too and although because of COVID we haven’t had the full experience of on campus lessons, I’ve had a good experience when being there. We’ve not been told much about society’s and clubs due to Covid and things not being able to happen, and I’ve never had much experience with the students union
Good uni so far, very pleased.
This is a great uni and I highly recommend
Love the university it has a very strong community feel
Do not apply to this University. It has very low standards. The staff are racists, sexists and lack ethics.
I cannot praise this university enough. I love this place to absolute pieces and cannot wait to be back in second year. The library is huge and has plenty of rooms to book for group work, it also has Schloar's Rest which you can see just above the entrance to where Santander is located. The Student shop is incredible- I swear I got a hot chocolate and muffin from there every day. All the staff are lovely and friendly. The campus in general is amazing.
