Sociology and Spanish, BA Hons FullTime
I enjoy my course, however the language part of it is not taught well in my opinion. The topics are quite boring, and it does not always feel like the teachers are teaching at the university level. For a language course, it does not feel like the language is used much at all, which is extremely unfortunate as that is the most important part of learning a language. read more

Lecturers and tutors are great, they are very open-minded people. I don't feel afraid to ask questions in lectures and tutorials, you can tell they work really hard to improve the course structure so that we have better learning experiences. They also responded well to the changes Covid brought. read more
Politics and Sociology, BASS FullTime
The course content was good but I wished I had more contact hours. We only get around 9 or 10 contact hours. The course is very independent and sometimes there is a lack of support. My academic advisor was good but rarely communicate with me. Lecturer and tutor were mostly very qualified with some exceptions. The value for money is the main thing I can complain about. I don't believe that humanities or social sciences courses, in general, are as expensive as any other STEM courses (especially the one that requires equipment and labs). So why charging Home fee students the same? It is simply unfair. read more

So far, I have learned how anthropology is connected with business as it can help the company understand consumer behavior with more details than statistics. Also, all of the professors are intelligent and nice. I could say the same thing for personal tutors. read more
