Great uni. The staff is awesome and the campus is brilliant.
All good, wifi can be quite bad though
UWE has such an accepting, chilled vibe and as a university it really cares about stidents’ well-being. There are organised events more than once a week and the facilities are always top notch.
UWE has state of the art facilities including a new law and business faculty. The new engineering faculty is being built and I have not seen a university that is as up to date as this one. The students union is a good place to go but it’s not as cheap as it could be. The university does lack open spaces to sit on nice days ( there used to be a massive area where the engineering building is being placed). I have loved my experience so far at UWE
The best facilities to study architecture.
The accommodation has been a nightmare with me having to leave campus to get oht of my house. Accommodation did nothing. Had some good lectures but the rest have been useless and patronizing.
UWE is a fantastic progressive university, great for anyone looking to further their future in a well connected friendly environment.
love it here its such an amazing city
Can't complain, their SU is good with events and there's loads of things to join in with around Bristol. Great facilities.
Nervous about first week, however settled right in. I’m currently having the best time of my life and I’m so glad I picked UWE!!
Literally the best uni I could have imaginened to go to! Not a bad word to say
Good university life but there is room for improvement
It's a good uni, lots of events and help from teachers, always spaces to study and get work done. Parking is utterly awful though, I've you're not in by 10am you'll be circling the car park for half an hour for a space.
Uwe is great and nursing is such an amazing course here! Bristol is the best city and I really think the lecturers are fab!
Great university with comprehensive support for all students. This is made all the better by the business/law building which is nationally competetive
Great night life, started to build really modern facilities. Needs better sports centre
UWE balances a more vocational/ coursework driven approach along with traditional exams brilliantly and allows you to show what you know in the best way for you.
Good facilities with constant improvement, I would like more support for alumni as certain buildings and facility's are pointless for current students and the sharing of facilities between faculties. Apart from that there is a club for everything, social media places for accommodation and a good social media presence.
Overall performance of UWE is totally in satisfactory level in terms of facilities and services. In learning, all the Lecturers are keen to support the students needs at anytime when they got free time.
Uwe has felt like nothing but home to me since I’ve got here. The moving in and settling in went smoothly, along with settling into university life. Not only starting lectures but socialising with the help of the freshers events put on at the SU and promoted by the Student Union. Also halls wars allowed me to meet people from differnt corners of campus and really allowed me to make a diverse set of friends. Even after freshers the SU and uni have continued to put on events and with Christmas coming up I cannot wait to take part in them.
Uwe campus is lovely and is perfect for someone who is wishing to stay on the campus (frenchay) it has basically everything you need (shops, cafe’s, gym, bar, hairdressers ect) Also the location of a Lidl, Asda, Sainsbury’s and a mega gym within a 5 minute walk is also really useful. The business block is also amazing and the lecturers are also super nice and are always willing to lend a hand.
Really lovely uni with lots of opportunities
Uwe is the most friendly university ever! Things are always changing due to the students needs, such as free black and white printing now!
Best decision I ever made was to transfer to UWE!
Great but bower lacks in societies, public transport (buses don’t run till late and not on weekends and the cafe isn’t amazing for hot food. Tutors are fab and love my course but spike island feels a bit far away and disconnected from the uni. Not much uni culture.
Friendly university with extremely helpful staff who push you to do better. I believe it to be looked down upon when in actual fact we have great facilities for learning and recreation which provides a rilliant environment to develop socially and academically.
Its an amazing uni massive library open 24/7 as well
Having come for postgrad from Bristol Uni, I have been very impressed by UWE, there’s more space, more diversity and a general lack of pretentiousness.
UoB but with better teaching and support
While the SU is relatively good, with a good variety of societies to choose from, one can't help but feel this is solely for the monetary gain that comes along with it. The mental health facilities at UWE are lacking, to say the least. I remember in 2016 a student at halls decided to end their life, and it was quietly pushed under the carpet, I remember no awareness campaign for mental health or anything. I suffered with terrible depression at my 2 years at UWE, I told lecturers about it, I was told that they can't do anything and I should speak to welfare. Understandable, but they never even bothered to drop me an email and see how I was. When I went to welfare, the treatment I got was rude, condescending and to be frank, pointless. I told them many times I was really struggling, and not once did they contact me outside of my appointments unless I initiated. It got so bad that I eventually dropped out entirely. If mental health services are a deal breaker for you, don't go to UWE.
Great uni. Love the feel of the campuses and I feel teaching is to a high standard
I love it, the experience is amazing and the people are great
Great university with amazing facilities
I got all the experience I needed at UWE to start my career. I really enjoyed my time and had all the support I needed both personally and academically.
Good uni good campus good facilities
The university have been helpful with settling in and the course I am on is interesting, however there are some courses which have lectures recorded and others which don’t and will refuse to either put slides up before lectures or record them to help students who many need that extra support.
The university has excellent and very modern facilities. The staff is welcoming and there is help service 24/7. Lecturers give their best to students and present the material in a fun way.
The new business block not only makes me want to go to uni but the facilities there bare top quality
Great staff, great societies, great friends, great fun.
I'm loving it at UWE. Everyone is really nice, I have nice flatmates, my accommodation is amazing and the best out of all my school friends and my course is alright
UWE offers continuous support throughout your university degree. From education to mental wellbeing. Loads on offer to help develop your CV during your time there to!
I don’t have a bad word to say about UWE. All I’ve experienced since arriving, are caring and supportive staff willing to help out any way they can. As an international student, I was weary about having no support from university and having a tough time. I couldn’t be more wrong. They have specific facilities for international students available when you need them!
I go to bower ashton campus which is a lovely campus being surrounded by deer and countryside whilst still being in the city, it is a great place to learn. Great facilities, with a whole building dedicated to film, animation and photography which is great.
So much support & great facilities.
Amazing 3 years at UWE, big love
Does what it sais on the package
Great university, great people. Lecturers know their stuff and the course is interesting
An excellent uni if you are doing one of the more popular degrees. However if you are doing a smaller degree the facilities are nowhere near as great as the brand new business building. The library is great though, it has everything the students need. As a former representative I can quite easily say the students union is one massive b****fight and nothing worthwhile is ever passed (Although most students don't even care). However societies and clubs definitely make up for this and get students a lot more engaged with their peers. The uni is perfect for those who love going out and equally as much for those who don't.
Great support for students, great employability skills
Uwe has exceeded my expectations by q million
Very good university, clean friendly, lovely environment to be in.
Amazing Staff, Amazing Campus and Amazing Nightlife!
Overall a postive experience. Stunning site and good local means. Glide wifi is rubbish so needs tweeking.
Wonderful atmosphere with brilliant facilities including the new Business and Law building in the centre of the campus and vibrant Student's Union.
Brilliant SU, new business block is incredible, good library. Really enjoyed first year. Would definitely recommend UWE to other people
Pretty sick and the night life isn't too bad either
Such a good university, especially for business.
Good student and career support but not enough student facilities such as gym
Really enjoyed first year, couldn’t ask for a better experience
The university provides excellent conditions for students , a lot of support for any kind of problems a student can face ( e.g. financial support , well being support , academic support, carreers support etc) . Also the staff has a positive attitude and it determines the students to enjoy the courses . I am very happy with this university and itnos a pleasure for me to study here. ❤️
Absolutely amazing university and I’m so glad that I go here
Really good uni with amazing facilities and support network
A uni that helps you get where you want to be. Doesn't train just you to be a reseacher It trains you to be a professional. Has great lectures, I haven't had one complaint about any and all my friends at other unis have. The tutors really care and everyone's willing to help. Just because it's not a Russel group doesn't mean it's bad, it's actually better then them because it's more interactive and job focused. Russel groups are for researchers. If you want a job go to UWE.
Great facilities with excellent lectures.
Incredibly supportive academics, good facilities and help outside of the classroom too e.g. mental health
Fantastic university with great facilities
I love my university its perfect for everything I wanted!
Awesome campus, the internet is surprisingly fast and the facilities are always well maintained.
So far pretty good uni. Made some great mates through special interest societies. Good wellbeing service which helped me through a rough patch.
Some of the building are dated, but the new business building is amazing. If you choose a business related course, you’ll get a quality degree. If you want to do a humanities course I would look at University of Bristol.
As a Business Student I was able to experience the brand new business building, which has an extremely cool modern feel to it as well as a great canteen area. I personally didn’t go to many societies (just drama) but at the society fair there were hundreds of options and many of my friends loved some of their societies. The SU is also really new which was great, it has some cool facilities such as a pool table and the drinks there are nice. I’ve heard the food is pretty good too! However a small criticism is there was a toilet door that wasn’t replaced for a while and also it’s a tiny bit in the small side. I personally never really used careers due to having a clear idea anyway, so I just put this as a 3. The internet is pretty good, eduroam works well and does its job, though sometimes it can get a tad slow due to heavy traffic, though it is always fine for work purposes.
loved every single moment of it, great day and night life
UWE has a fantastic support network for students. The staff genuinely care about the students and that's shown by great events the SU puts on and the services they provide like accommodation help, the job shop and wellbeing services. The careers service is also really helpful, especially because you can use it for a year after you graduate! UWE also supports students socially by showcasing their awesome societies, there are so many to choose from! You will definitely be able to find a great friendship group joining a society, no matter what your interests are :)
UWE Bristol is a very welcoming place which is great for students to easily come in and get into the groove of University. All the lectures are useful as well with helping with work and so forth.
Wifi is funny sometimes but the wired internet is pretty good! I have yet to meet a mean person and the staff do seem to care about problems i have
Great location, great facilities.
2nd year media and journalism student. They trialled a new module on our year that clearly didn't work and now we're all left with bad grades that effects our graduation.
Have had a really good first year, the facilities on campus are amazing and are so accessible, and the university is in a great location.
Great place with great tutors, however sometimes forget that the students education is the most important thing.
Brilliant university with great facilities and social activities for all to get involved in. Very happy being a student at the uni
Glenside campus has absolutely nothing! They don’t care about you if you don’t go to frenchey
It has been a great three year experience at UWE studying Biomedical Science. All the staff were very helpful and help was available at all times.
The best life choice ever, great staff, great facilities and grest people
It is a nice university but there are some things which need improvement
Nice university on the surface. But it is a terrible place full of not so good people. Lecturers seem to not give a crap in the business courses.
really great campus, everything available to you, amazing facilities
Amazing uni, great facilities, lecturers are helpful and alround great city
Uni is great here however, my experience with some of the faculty has not been 100% positive. Biggest one would be like lack of communication (not responding to any emails). Some of them however are brilliant but my main experience is waiting for emails as they're hard to get hold of or would prefer an email
Absolutely appalled with UWE, can see the reason people disregard it as a quality university. Accommodation managers and staff are neglectful to issues that need to be resolved. Lack of support from staff. Disgusting.
Great community, broad range of study, amazing campus. Big up Bristol!
Relative small campus but it really makes it feel like a community, the student village is situated in a great area with access to cutting edge facilities like the new Bristol Business School.
Great facilities, especially the new business building
All good really, students union this year has been pretty crap though and pretty much a massive waste of money, especially the president who’s pretty much done nothing for the uni at all. Halls were good but I was in a rubbish flat so that could’ve been better. Societies have been insane, looking forward to next year
Amazing uni, great campus and nightlife, very helpful tutors
Always super supportive, staff are lovely and make you feel like you're at home, a dream uni
I am so glad that I decided to go here.
The campus is really good and there are more shops around. The gym price and facility is also great.
Overall friendly university, that offers the best facilities to students.
The main campus is very well equipped and lovely but the smaller campuses definitely need looked at. For example the students union at Glenside Campus
UWE business school lecturers are motivated and supportive, lots of extra help, activities, good social life
