It’s good enough. You go and learn. The rooms are good but equipment for filming seems to only have issues, if that be with the actual broken equipment or the loans website not allowing students to book out equipment in time. There are no clubs other than 1 that I know of, for an arts campus it feels like it should feel more colourful and livelier. The plain white walls on every floor do become a bit scary after a while. read more

my experience with the university of South Wales as a whole has been pretty good. Treforest/pontypridd campus has most of the facilities, societies, student union presence and is the biggest campus by far. I'm at Newport campus though. There are 2 societies and barely any facilities, the student union is basically non existent at this campus and it's clear that it is underfunded. Most of my lecturers are great but there are some that are the definition of death by PowerPoint and claim to offer support about the course but it's like talking to a brick wall read more

WiFi can be slow at times, at the Newport campus there is very little societies and clubs to attend. There is extremely little activity from the student union, if there is any.. not advertised very well. However, facilities that are available and staff are great at Newport campus read more

The Newport campus is just one building, but it is great. With a nice view of the River Usk, the Uni is really well equipped with technology, private studying rooms, and its own Starbucks. The library is well stocked, and laptop loans are very easy and convenient. Not to mention, the variety of shops and restaurants just across the road to pop in to between lectures. I couldn’t complain about a thing! read more

Studying BSc Psychology at the University of South Wales has been such a rewarding experience! The course covers so many interesting topics, from health psychology to therapeutic interventions, and the lecturers are super supportive and knowledgeable. They make even the tough concepts easy to understand. The best part is the practical side— there are loads of opportunities to apply what we learn, whether it's through research projects or lab sessions. The resources here are great too, with access to amazing facilities and plenty of help when you need it. The campus in Cardiff is a bonus-such a lively, welcoming city with lots of places to study and relax. I've learned so much and feel ready to take the next steps in my career. If you're thinking about studying psychology, l'd definitely recommend USW! read more
