I think Nottingham made the most of a terrible situation with online learning. Obviously it was never going to be as good as in-person teaching but it was fine online. read more

Philosophy lecturers at Nottingham are incredibly intelligent and very passionate when they teach, it encourages me to work hard. There is also a lot of choice, there are a few core modules and the rest you get to pick. read more

Too much focus on analytical philosophy, if you're into existentialism this is not the course for you. Teaching can be good as there are some lecturers who try, but the majority of the department struggle to communicate well in lectures and as a result attendance is fairly low. read more
