ok

Overall a very poor post graduate experience. Very lazy teaching methods, essentially teaching yourself, poor communication, poor guidance, poor quality of resources. I was advised to to do this programme by previous students, however opted to do it due to the flexibility offered. If your after a budget “tick in the box” course this is it.

The Worst University you will ever want to register. No Support at all. They are so defensive and always want to blame the student for the mistakes. No response when asked for help.

London campus. Very small, but great to have the accessibility to a campus in central London. Small can be good in the sense there’s not too many people around, always some where to sit and access printers etc.

I started the BA Photography course in 2018 and finished in 2022. I found the modules interesting, and we had a good mix of arts and more commercially orientated guest speakers. The tutors were incredibly helpful and supportive and did their best to provide engaging sessions despite the disruption of covid19 during my studies there. Resources are good with plenty of studio space, a big Mac-based editing room, and a massive dark room (B@W plus colour possible). Technical support is excellent too. Certainly worth considering for an undergraduate-level photography degree.

This is the worst teaching establishment I have ever had the misfortune to register with. I am a distance learning student, there is little support and the admin staff forget to register you onto modules. I have had to chase staff to find out when the modules are starting, some staff are disinterested and have no input into the courses, the work was written possibly several years ago, it is on a website for you to complete but you can’t ask questions. It has put me off considering any further learning and has made me wish I had never signed up for the course. Do not consider distance learning with this uni.

Absolutely love studying at the Lancaster campus so far. The course is developed and support is available at any time. Personal feel and the most amazing, knowledgeable and achieved contingency of staff and tutors! I feel like University of Cumbria should be at the top of the list for this degree!!

its good
