Lots of contact time with tutors available however you can easily do stuff online due to the online recordings of lectures if you prefer

We were covid year and facilities limited and we still charged same amount

Some modules are not really related and needed for the course. More quality practical lertures will be good in first and second year.

Big kitchen, quite spacious room, 8 rooms per kitchen, washing room near by. Self-catered with en-suit bathroom.

The course work is amazing. I have enjoyed all my modules both taught and for the research aspect. My only concern was on one online module for data science which I really struggled with because the lessons were offered through teams and that was a challenge for me because it was a technical and fairly new subject topic for me.

The uni is located in a village like setup. The place is peaceful, serene and quiet which I quite like but public transport ends by 6pm so unless you have private means or take a taxi, you cannot really move about much. The transport is also not very frequent like in the cities, so bus waiting times are up to 30 mins. Most employers are looking for full time workers, so as an international student with restricted working hours getting a job was very challenging.

The halls were amazing and private and cleaned regularly so even the shared facilities were nice to use. Just sometimes the school wifi had maintenance and on those days network didn’t have good connection.

Amazing facilities, some teachers not great but feedback has improved

Good facilities

Lecturers are mostly brilliant and will offer the opportunity to learn in different ways if you don't understand. FBM however is often taught by a lecturer who is quite belittling if you are struggling and we had very limited contact time with him as he had pre-recorded stuff from covid in replacement of teaching time - this one module and lecturer brought my whole experience down.

Students often get the blame for poor behaviour rom locals which is a shame

We had a break in to our kitchen when I was an undergraduate from some non-students who used a big kitchen knife to confuse the magnets keeping the door closed. We had just gone into our friends room down the hall to help move something and luckily missed something - a girls car was stolen. We also had been placed in flat with the exact same people we asked not to be and with 2nd and 4th years who had learning difficulties and nowhere else to live. as the flats above us were all empty for conferences it was just two flats and we really struggled due to this. It felt like because we had done the EFDP 1 year course (most as under 18's) and were allowed back on campus as a new intake of freshers that we were just shoved together for ease when actually we should of have the right to be put in halls with other first years.

Small course but good modules

Couldn’t fault

Good

Very good

More practical animal work, watching actual animal behaviour/training instead of it being so theoretical would be helpful

Still a lot to live on campus and have basic facilities

Great facilities . Contact time can be hard due ti strikes at the moment

Good room with great people , but more space to sit as a flat would be great rather than just in someone’s room

The course hours are good but would be better if more lectures on different days as very spread out

The town is very small but lots of opitunitys to work on farms

I think the bathrooms could be more updated
