Postgraduate Social Work reviews
Students are spot on
Social Work (Postgraduate Entry) MA (Hons)
London South Bank University
Charli, June 2008Overall score
As a postgrad student, the work has been more or a priority, the facilities have been there to resource that, students are spot on, the classrooms are located and are as accessible as a street bollard in an aztec jungle, hence not very good. The admin is not too good either.Students coming here need to be very organised and proactive in getting what they need to do on their own back as relying on the uni to automatically do stuff would involve considerable long waits.
Study experience
Lecturers are helpful. Courses are jam packed full of stuff.
Facilities
Good library, pretty indepth journal section.
Postgraduate life
Pretty low on variety of clubs.
