Personally I found a lot of the first year lectures really rubbish because the lecturers didnt seem to know what they were doing. You can get by perfectly alright if you have done maths and statistics at A-Level though. The fluid flow, thermodynamics and heat transfer lecturer is AMAZinG. Bit disorganised as a department at first with timetables/hand outs/lab booklets, but that may just be what most unis are like at the beginning of the year! read more
