Anthropology, BSc Hons FullTime

They don't assign you a personal tutor as an Erasmus student and I never received help from anyone. The value for money is way too much for the amount of time spent in class learning. Teachers were good in general, as well as the course content. The job prospects as a foreign student were NON-EXISTENT due to an oversubscription and overpopulation of students, all looking for a job. read more

Biological side of the degree seems really good with passionate lecturers and good quality teaching, great fossil and primate casts for teaching anatomy. Some really good social anthropology lectures but some leave something to be desired. read more

Law and Criminology, LLB Hons FullTime

They offer a wide range of future job opportunities as well as jobs for now. They also run loads of networking events and get us in contact with different places to access more opportunities to help as advance after uni and during uni with placements or work experiences etc. The teaching quality is always good and they usually give us the slides before hand to prepare and go into more detail in the lectures. Our seminars are very informative and can help me understand things that I maybe did not get. My personal tutor was very friendly and gave me lots of helpful advice as well as signposting the services offered in Kent like student support and wellbeing etc. The course content is not only interesting but makes you think about the law more critically as well as proving lots of case studies to help us understand how the law is applied. read more

My course leaders went on strike in my second year, and I must of missed about of month of teaching, whilst still paying £9,250 a year, instead of being reimbursed for my loan being spent on NOTHING, everyone was told that the money would “be put back into the uni for pay for facilities”. Utter joke! read more

Law and Criminology, LLB Hons FullTime

Law is very challenging but in a good way, the staff give good lecturers and seminars. Criminology is not as good, the content is quite repetitive on core modules and can get a bit boring. Additionally having criminology as joint with law is a good way of breaking up hard content however, it does restrict your options of modules in 2nd and 3rd year a lot read more
