Middlesex University Reviews

I'm now in my final year as a non-EU student paying £13,500yr My experience is not worth this much. Timetabling- terrible. About to start my final term in 2 days and do not have a timetable yet. Was told to just read the slides on my own and hopefully it gets sorted by week 2. It's like this every term. I get that timetabling is a complicated tasks, yet they ALWAYS leave it to the last minute and now I can't go to class. Many of us have jobs who are impatiently waiting for our hours and lives that revolve around classes but MDX doesn't care about your students needs. Quality of Education - Very poor. Students are expected to produce quality work, free of mistakes, and to submit said work on time. This does not apply to faculty and materials they produce. Full of typos and errors making it hard to learn. Finance team makes SO many mistakes - I've had to pay so many fees because of them. Unihelp is slow and not knowledgeable-Service is sh*t. Teaching is often outdated. DONT GO HERE.

Lovely uni, staff are friendly and supportive.

I am very, very disappointed by this university. I have wasted my time and money. If you want to be treated like a human being, choose a different university.

Middlesex University MA PHOTOGRAPH program is utterly useless. Virtually nothing listed on the MDX MA Photography webpage is accurate and for all intents and purposes nothing is taught (what I learned I did so entirely on my own initiative). When I approached the course leaders about my concerns, I was not merely rebuffed, they were flat-out angry that I dared to challenge or question their approach to the program. My follow-up feedback/complaint to the office of the chancellor of the university was equally squashed despite the fact that I laid out specific details. On balance, I also submitted a list of suggestions for improving the course. In short, stay away from MDX MA Photography. You have been warned.

Truely a wonderful university. Computer Science facilities of Middlesex University is World class.

The check in app is awful. The “free books” are just digital copies on a rubbish app. Food is overpriced, there are about 2 jobs available for each course when there are probably around 200 students on a single course. There are no extracurricular stuff.

The worse department at Middlesex University is Science and Tech and the worse section is Computer Science and IT. This university uses undergraduates as helpers and tutors to teach students. The atmosphere at this department is of spying and backstabbing each other. Tutors do not know how to help students and close sessions or cancel at short notice. Even vivas gets cancelled because only few people control everything. They use people without expertise to teach in class, students drop out easily some tutors are too busy to answer emails. One of the worse places to study. They use high tech rooms to impress students but nothing is of value. Food and drinks costs a fortune. I think the worse course for me was with a teacher his name was George Dafoulas because he was always on holiday and instead he brought his friends and wife to substitute himself. This teacher everyday had 5 or 6 people inside the classrooms to work on other projects. Rooms were crowded and one support left to help

I have been at Middlesex University for two years. Let’s sum it up in a few points: Good: 1. Not bad as a campus, lectures and seminars are within close approximate to the main building. 2. Some lecturers like in the Business school, do care about the students and they want to see them develop! Bad: 1. MDXSU, marketing and Unitemps teams are the worst. Staff are unworthy of such jobs. They are rude and disgusting. 2. They employ the people they want. Yes, hear me again, they will employ the people they want. If you are good and apply for equal opportunities then forget it. The working environment is creepy and sad. 3. Their work ethics is unbelievable and alarming. This goes to Unitemps and MDXSU. 4. Unitemps staff are weirdos and dirty people.

Middlesex University was a fantastic experience for me. There were some days when it felt like there was no organization or communication, but it always ended up working out. As a marketing student, I had absolutely amazing lecturers who helped me with whatever I needed. The facilities are all new and well kept, the clubs and societies are fun if you get involved, the students union puts on a good show and is a great laugh, careers services helps you if you actively seek them out. The wifi can be pretty rubbish some days, but the computers in the library usually have a good connection and run fairly well.

I have only been here a year and have NOT experienced the Careers Services or any Clubs or Societies so please don't take those ratings into consideration. The campus is decent, some rooms obviously much nicer than others, never really used the wifi but I think it was slow at times, but thats expected considering the amount of people that would have been using it lmao. There's a Costa and Starbucks on Campus which is a bonus as well as a Subway.

Ggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg

Im struggling to find anything good to write about this uni,i mean the library is decent but iften busy ,student union organise god awful events,theres decent sports teams to join but facilities are awful ,the internet is decent when not everystudent is using it!but this uni has a i dont give a f**k attitude to students really,awful stay clear!!

For my course facilities were poor,but library useful and good websites decent internet.

Disappointment in the lack of professionalism when staff are presented with complaints. Defensive, rude , argumentative and condescending behaviour shown by more than one staff member. Patronising behaviour makes it very uneasy to be present in meetings. Very disappointed.

Disappointing. I felt like I was waiting for the entire academic year for the course to begin.

It’s a nice campus, free WiFi all over and free printing, some good events but they only do a student night once a month. The student union are great though and I like the vibe in MDX house. Seems quite small for a university all together but that may be just me?

Facilities are so bad. There’s only 3 main food places and all the food is gross and overpriced. If you’re vegan it’s even more impossible to get decent food. A lot of universities have practically their own little village, with things like a corner shop and banks and restaurants but Middlesex has none of that. Would be a great uni if the facilities were improved on. There’s a lot of costas and one starbucks where you can get sandwiches but that can get boring. There’s loads of societies which is good, and i’m pretty sure most of them, if not all, are free to join.

Really bad university. I would not recommend to anyone to go. Poor lecture, poor facilities. Waste of time and money.

incompetent dbs team - rude, patronising, does not respond to emails,does not offer advice.

Homely university. very pretty campus and people are welcoming. Most societies apart from Islam or anime are pretty closed off and just have their own cliques and barely arrange meetings for new people.

I had a great time at the uni and in classes. Staff are friendly and motivate you to work. Perhaps one thing that takes longer is getting some feedback on written coursework. Facilities and labs are second to none especially the networking labs all hands-on and lots of help provided. Food is a bit expensive but the High Road more than makes up for it. Lots of fast food restaurants about as well as nice places to sit and eat. I loved the place and if I ever want to study again I will go back, look nowhere else. james

MDX pushes its students to become as employable as they can trying to get them to be life smart for after graduation and not just get them a degree.

I love MDX. Full of life, multicultural people, always stuff to do!

Facilities O.k but University policy and staff attitude towards you is crippling and has had a disastrous effect on my future career. If you hand the work in late they refuse to mark it even though it's a large assignment, thereby making you fail the whole course. They outright refuse by saying its uni policy and they say the are treating you like an adult yet if any teacher or member of the staff hand in work late they still get paid either way. I have now lost a year and I am now in debt having paid the tuition fees in full, in effect I have paid their wages and yet they cannot even be bothered to mark my work, why ? because its an inconvenience to them. I had spoken to another department but they care even less quoting the uni policy.

Hello dear student and fellow on-coming students, I would like to share my experience with Middlesex university. I am at my last year here and since the beginning of my journey the teachers have been very unprofessional and the lectures are just very bad but of course there are 1 or 2 teachers whom are very good out of 10 teachers for example. Most teachers here are after their income, not to teach. Rather than helping you achieve the best they put you down and tell the students that they will fail. The education system here is rubbish, at all costs please avoid this university. I have been here for 3 years and have not learned a single thing. They expect you to know these things before hand and they will not teach you. Teachers here are not willing to teach. As they say its all about the 'MONEY'. If you are coming here to study Computer Engineering, Computer Science or Information Technology. Please choose another university and save your future.

Basically, the majority of people get accepted to some courses even without having a clue of what is going on. This results in 70 percent of people not even knowing what their course is, but they are "cool". The food place is crowded so it is not useful while rushing to another class. Especially in front of the exams, the university will hold many events that students are not invited to in the main building. Therefore they literally kick you out in front of your studies, put a security guard next to each door and not let you in - even though you pay for the school and are a student. Prices in the food stores are just insane, if you leave the campus, the prices go down about 50 percent. There are just so many people that don't have interest and they ruin the lessons for you as well.

Most incompetent office staff possible. I have continuously tried to contact them to resolve a change that needs doing in my course and they still are failing to respond.

Good facilities constantly making it better. Student union staff are very kind.

Wifi can be pretty bad sometimes. The library is amazing; especially the timetable. The facilities for all courses are amazing ! The uni is clean and friendly and the campus is so beautiful especially at night. There are lots of great events organized by Student Union.

The uni is great although ive havent had time to experience every facility just yet!

Amazing uni. Builds my accomplishment in academics by triggering my reading abilities while providing all the necessary facilities

the university is very diverse and good to meet new people you would not have before

Great social uni, just need to have a more active nightlife within the uni

Very nice university. There are many people around to help. Many places to get something to eat or drink. Also many places to chill.

Haven't been to another university but it must be one of the best for scientists. Incredible labs!

(Didn't give me the option to rate uni staff)

Not a lot I can fault the University on really, it has everything you need as a student! The student union is really helpful and offers lots of opportunities for other students to get involved and help! There is a good range of internet everywhere on campus. I think the only exception is one block of ladies toilets, however I'm sure this isn't a major problem for anyone:).
