The university campus is beautiful, with lots of quiet spaces to study, and nice places to eat. There is a huge range of societies that offer lots of activities. The career service is good with helpful staff. Some of the seminars and lectures could be more engaging but overall this is a good university. read more

I believe we have one of the prettiest and largest campuses in the UK. We have over 300 societies and so many volunteering opportunities as well as give it a go activities that happen pretty often where you can try new things and be involved. We also have a lot of community welfare in terms of free breakfast every Wednesday, food parcels you can take home and so much more; our uni really cares about students in the living crisis. Although we had a lot of career events throughout the year, none of them re really what I want to go into (NGO work) and it’s mostly very crowded and at least for me , I don’t think they’re effective. Our student union is great, it heats our voices and supports every single one of us . The internet works all the time but it sometimes discounts from the device and it’s very hard to get it back on. There is also a really big issue when it comes to service there is barely anywhere where 4G works. Also there is internet in the buildings but nothing outside read more

I needed alternative accommodation due to my 3rd year uni house falling through at the last minute. Karen, who works for Altura, honestly saved my life and helped me quickly secure accommodation for my last year of uni. The whole situation was very stressful and the team at Altura made it that much easier and I was able to enquire , book and move into the accommodation within 2 days. I also was able to refer 2 friends who also enquired, booked and moved into Altura within a few days. They have honestly saved me and I’m so very grateful. read more

Tennis courts is the best, it’s so much fun and everyone is lovely. Nightlife is so good, but you have to figure out which days are good when. All professors are lovely and approachable. My course Bsc Environmental science is not ethnically diverse like I hoped Brum would be. The city is fun. read more

In terms of facilities, the university does a great job especially with student support. The one complaint I have, would be that not all lecture theatres have power outlets near the seats for students to use and device does run out of charge despite charging it fully. Since i'm an exchange student from UoB Dubai, I was very used to having charging ports everywhere. I think this is something they could improve on. read more

It had been only two weeks since the start of my course and I am really enjoying it. The campus is perfect with a lot of support and guidance provided by the guild members of the society. The WiFi service available in the university is outstanding as it helps in accessing the canvas page during the lectures so as to have good understanding of what is being taught in lectures. Initially moving to a new country was a frightening experience but the support at the university helped me a lot in settling here. read more
