Professors and tutors are always interested in helping students and making sure they have a thorough understanding of the material and can keep up with the course. The aching material is very interesting and in many cases industry oriented such that students get a taste of what is like to work in a professional environment. read more

The value for money was good for me because of the pre-brexit fee where EU students don’t pay fees, otherwise it would be 1 star. Quality of teaching in Informatics is very bad, with very few courses being well taught and actually willing to take in student feedback to improve. read more

it’s a decent sized course but all the professors are really great and really on it. because i did english a level, content wise the first war was definitely a slow start, but the courses available second and third year onwards are a really good selection. in terms of job prospects, there are loads of tech orientated/programming courses offered from third year on which can really broaden what’s available to you read more

Not many interactions with PT, but loving all the students and even though the lecture quality could be improved, they seem to know good basics to teach! For this programme there are endless job opportunities as long as you have passion and interest, and for EU students it's free to study here as of now, so all is good. read more
