Nursing (Adult) with NMC Registration BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

The campus i study in is small which i like and the lecturers are supportive. However the skills session where we do practical could be better. Also when we are in placement the placement team of uni isn't the greatest at replying to emails so they could improve.

Uxbridge feels like an office block. No student life really. Not really the 'student' experiance I was hoping for

The student's union supports students 3 times a week with free meals to help reduce our costs within the cost of living crisis. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, making it comfortable for everyone. BNU is a good uni, the only downside most students may agree on is the that nightlife is lacking, which is out of the control of the uni, but still the students have a great time regardless, making the most of what we have.

Nursing (Adult) with NMC Registration BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

I have enjoyed studying at Buckinghamshire New University. My peers have been very supportive and friendly. The staff are helpful when needed. The student union is also helpful, I have learnt a lot. They are very rigorous as well as fun in their teaching style at my campus. There is a huge focus on independent learning along with materials provided online, use it to your advantage! I would say to manage time well and ask for support when needed the university will help. The library staff are very helpful. The facilities are great for my course, Adult Nursing. I would say the only thing the university could do better is have more communication between campuses, even though there are free link buses, they do not feel socially connected in my experience

Acting for Stage and Screen BA (Hons)

University rating (5)

Best aspects are by far the societies and the student union. Its very easily accessible and always makes you feel welcome. I've never left the student union feeling like my problem has not been resolved. Regarding the worst aspects I would say it is the accommodations. The bedrooms and communal areas (e.g. kitchens and corridoors) do not feel homely at all (an example of this is the color of the doors in Hughenden flats).

Aviation Management BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

Being at BNU, has been really great experience, as I a studying Aviation Management. Before starting university, I had some industry experience working at London Gatwick Airport as a Check In Agent. Having a degree in aviation is so much more important because it can give me the opportunity to choose your specialism for your future career after your experience of the core curriculum in year one. Rather than having to make your big career decision before you join us, we introduce you to various specialisms and offer you the flexibility to choose the pathway which leads to your chosen career. I was able to learn different modules pertaining to areas such as airport operations, safety and security, and now it would get much deeper and in depth into areas such as airline management, investigating a crisis event that has taken place. Now, I serve as a student ambassador for the university representing my course.

Sound Design BSc (Hons)

University rating (5)

The best thing about the university for me is access to the best audio equipment, which is regularly upgraded. The thing that bothers me a bit is the costs (e.g. of transportation) associated with participating in sports communities that are advertised as completely free.
