Architecture 1st year awfully run with little guidance, unorganised tutors and poor marking with no feedback. Repeatedly felt under-supported and a large portion of my modules felt pointless or rushed. Very few of the tutors actually "teach" or don't teach well. The history module is good with engaging teaching though. Use of the online portal is appalling, with lectures being inconsistently recorded making catching up extremely difficult. We've had np written feedback from 4 reports submitted this year, with many of them not being marked until 2-3 months after they were handed in. Utterly disappointed with my first year on this course and just desperately hoping it gets better in year 2! read more

The course is already expensive but on top of that, we have to pay so much money for equipment and printing it's absolutely ridiculous. The folio teacher is a drunk asshole who is completely unfair and prone to favoritism. read more

Teachers were too arrogant and they were just not good with communicating with the students. Also they were not marking the coursework fairly. They were marking the work depending on their point of view on the students. read more

Although I do enjoy my studies, I believe that the particular course is taught in a more artistic way and not so technical. Most of the time we have to research things on our own rather than being taught during lectures and I believe that there are some basic knowledge that should be taught in the beginning of the course instead of start working immediately on projects. read more
