I campus is ok. It has little to with the education you will receive.
This university offers ten minute online lectures. There is no direction for students. I had no idea what the goals were or how to achieve them. There is no personal tutor to support students. I found that the academics didn't have subject specific knowledge because there are only a handful of academics, and of the Roman specialists one is a Roman historian of the trade of the later middle east, and one a specialist of Statius and very little idea about other poets beyond the basics. Not at all useful for me.
The university works really hard to ensure students feel part of a community
Lecturers always listen to the students
the environment is very welcoming and the lecturers care about your passion for the topic and are always willing to help and provide support.
the course is really exciting with lots of different tasks with varying options. all classes are in person which means they’re very engaging. the lecturers are pretty punctual to replying to emails from students!
I like, the student life that we have, i’m not feeling busy also if I have assignment or exams because they’ll let us know and explain all in details before 2 months for the big exams and assignment, so there’s time for plan, organize, don’t get stressed and do all that is needed with time, revision and without getting in trouble on submitting or without doing mistake on it, because the time is enough for make a good assignment or exam .
For now that’s it, what I said before I think is my first view, for now I have assess just 3 month so in these 3 months I have seen this, and I hope that I’ll have many opinion and good reviews of this uni.. and that I’ll be satisfied of studying for this year there
The environment for engineering at the Swansea campus gives me an enthusiastic drive to face complex engineering subjects in a simulation and is practically important. The facilities and students are exceptional throughout the semester. Meanwhile, as an international student, I would like to highlight that the processes the course completion like providing CAS and other documents by the international registry is slow. I hope that will be sorted to conclude the best academic experience.
The course develops the perspective in a directional way to complex engineering solutions and research. The key aspect I would like to highlight as an international student is that universities should provide work placements and opportunities with respect to the uniqueness of the subject.
Swansea gave me a proactive lifestyle as an athlete with a glimpse of nature and water bodies connecting yourself to nature. As a student, it is important to have peace within our surroundings where Swansea always treats me with a proficient environment to live with respect to physical and mental challenges. Considering the cost of living, part-time and graduate opportunities, it is a great disappointment over the past year to find jobs as an international student as the city is small with an intense level of migration of international students to a couple of well-ranked universities in 3 different intakes. Most of the jobs consider me an overqualified student for the jobs available, and I am still struggling to live in Swansea.
Passing my Course. Passing even Higher.
Best Is Passing. Worst in when it Ends. Until I go Study to PhD.
Best, my Neighbours. Least, going back to England.

I am studying as full time but on a distance learning mode. I do not have experience of campus look and feel and the locations. I would like to attend the graduation ceremony to have a touch of the University. It has been great experience during the first part of the MBA programme such as the interactions with the students from different locations and the tutor. I was motivated to enroll for the MBA to gain the UK English communications and academic skills having studied at the local British Council (I am from the Republic of Mauritius). For the first part of the programme, i.e. taught modules, there could be improvement in the academic skills of part time doctoral student at the University who are tutors. I was almost put off from the programme from the feedback of the part time doctoral student/tutor of the first module. I have a 17 years gap between my previous university and the present course such that it took me some time to get back to academic life. What kept me motivated was the ensuing tutors of the course. The next improvement could be on part two of the programme. I have been struggling with business exigencies to complete planned actions for this part. This could be improved by having this part as a module of the programme with quarterly deadlines and tutoring to ensure timely progress. To conclude, it has been great experience studying at the University so far.
Please refer to inputs on the improvement section on the best and worst aspects of the course.
for me the location, lecturers style of delivery, facilities on campus
initially, it was face-to-face, the to online and then back to face-to-face
the environment, parking. facilities around and on campus. traspotation
Lecturers are helpful, accessible Workload is very heavy for online students but manageable
Heavy content. Demanding. Very informative and enlightening. Potential to create the ne essential changes for a sustainable future as education if one of the key aspect in achieving this venture.
