Art History And Theory Ma
University Of Essex
Marianna, November 2007Overall score
It was very isolated. Good for people who like peace and quiet. The town has enough to do to keep you occupied for a while and at least its not a long train ride to London. The campus is naturally beautiful, pond, grass, geese but the buildings are ugly. People try to be helpful.

History Of Art And Architectural History Ma (Hons)
University Of Edinburgh
Rory, March 2007Overall score
I did not enjoy it. There were good and bad bits, but in the long run my time at Edinburgh uni did not help me. The City of Edinburgh could not be bettered in terms of culture, people, interesting places to visit etc. The teaching at the University of Edinburgh in the arts courses however is in need of serious improvement. Most important piece of advice for students is if you went to a boarding school before this, do not do an arts course at edinburgh uni.
Study experience
Dismal. Not enough contact hours, unrealistic emphasis on independent working, and teachers low on communication skills. My conclusion on this, which took me three years to discover, was that university teaching is not a high priority for lecturers, and that they care more about getting papers published and doing their own research. This is fair enough, the university gets funding according how many publications they can produce. Lecturers want to keep their jobs. For the students though, this is an unrewarding environment, with little feedback and little pastoral support, and if you are not attracted by the image of the lonely researcher beware.
Facilities
This is a hard question to answer because the facilities at my previous school were so good. Not enough computers or books around exam/essay time, but this problem is being addressed by the library staff at the moment. The central library itself is a poor working environment, the one in aberdeen is much nicer. Ours is a 60's monstrosity that people sometimes confuse with a car park. That said, lots of nice little places to work if you know where to find them.
Postgraduate life
Yes, the clubs are good. I joined a club called Nomad and we produced a travel & photography magazine together for a couple of years. From this I made some of the best friends I've made at uni, and this has led on to the best experiences. I also tried canoe club, hillwalking club, life drawing and others. It depends on the group and what you're into- some attempts go further than others. I thought I would join a sports club like I had done at school, but I found there to be not much available between semi-professional standard and kickabout in the park standard.
Job prospects
I wasn't really thinking in terms of job prospects. A lot people I know go on to change direction significantly after uni, so I didn't worry too much about it. I think though that art history students generally do well, and there is a thriving heritage industry for architectural history graduates. The uni has a solid reputation.
