Student Review: 4.6 /5

I am currently studying Civil Engineering and cannot recommend the University enough. As a previous Marine Biology student of Stirling University, I am blown away by what it is to finally have a real education (do not go to Stirling, seriously). The teaching facilities and top class and the Duncan Rice library is something to behold, although I cant help but think how many more computers they could fit on each floor if it weren't for the big holes in the middle. Aberdeen Sports Village is in partnership with the University and has everything: Huge gym, indoor and outdoor running tracks, 2 full size football pitches (indoor and out door), 2 hockey pitches, 50 metre pool, Olympic dive pool and much more - all available to students at a cheap price. There are several places to eat and socialise from Starbucks to food courts, but no traditional union to speak of. Instead we have The Bobbin and Red Lion - bars practically on campus. Phenomenal student support! We are valued.

The University of Aberdeen is a great University, there is many societies you can join and the facilities on campus are very good. The Sir Duncan Rice Libary is also very useful when you just want a quiet space to study (if you can find a space).

Only problem I have with campus is there's no bar in the students union, unlike most other unis which I've heard about

I entered Aberdeen University in 2014 and was one of the 'mature' students put into temporary accommodation. I felt very segregated because of this because I was not put into halls like most students and this made my social life more far more difficult - which was incredibly unhelpful as a music student. I had a very long and arduous battle just to get into the university. Having now graduated I sometimes wish I never have had bothered putting myself through such a ordeal but there were few benefits - finding work/experience and meeting new people (eventually). I was also dyslexic and had other learning difficulties and I really felt 3rd and 4th year just went really downhill - I was very unhappy with how the course was run with the communities programme, lecturers for various reasons, no help from dyslexic advisor (off all term) combined with strike action on another course I was studying and I could feel my physical and mental health failing.

Uni of Aberdeen is a good school, I enjoy attending it. Courses are well constructed and there is lot of effort out into providing students with outside school activities such as sports clubs or various societies.

Avoid at all costs. Lazy pretentious run down university. Lecturers are rude and lazy and unhelpful. Depressed as the students are.
