Postgraduate Writing reviews
Overall score
I decided to do a master's as i wanted to continue studying my subject in greater depth. I found the course interesting and enjoyable and i would definitely recommend it.
Study experience
Lecture and seminars were informative and challenging and we were given lots of free reign to pursue our own individual interests.
Facilities
All excellent, and easily accessible on one campus.
Postgraduate life
Lecturers and students socialised out of lecture time and the course was an opportunity to meet like-minded people. The university campus and hall life is great, although i lived in a house during my MA.
Job prospects
I think having a master's has been useful in interviews and so on. I didn't really utilise the university career's service as much as i could have.

Teesside University
Sandra, December 2008Overall score
Make sure the course is definitely the one for you. Do as much research as you can on the university,the course, the tutors, students and accommodation. Make sure it has a good student's union. as it can be invaluable for lifting your spirits and for making new friends Get your assignments in on time and make good use of the library.
Study experience
Talk to your tutor; gett to know him/her and what they require. They all work differently and never be afraid to ask questions. Turn up for lectures on time and take lots of notes.
Facilities
The library is excellent, well stocked ,staff are incredibly helpful.There is a huge bank of computers and printing facilities on each floor. There are quite areas for study and rooms you can book if you need to do presentations There are several bars and clubs all have great atmospheres. The student union bar organises discos and quiz nights.

Overall score
Study experience
The course aims to take already skilled writers from amateur level to professional, and the ever increasing list of award-winning graduates gives an indication of how successful the course is! The work is never easy and the course moves at a speedy pace, but this teaches more about deadlines and the writing industry than an easier course ever could. The tutors are all professional, talented and incredibly helpful - and are all themselves practising writers. The curriculum is clearly laid out at the start of the course but there is always plenty of help on hand for those who need to clarify any aspect of it.
Facilities
For a course of this type, the library and IT facilities are probably the most important resources and there are no problems with these at all. The university is currently having a reshuffle of its campuses so things are set to improve in this department.
Postgraduate life
The difficulty of getting on to the course means that, once they have made it, students are excited to be there and willing to work hard. The university prides itself on fostering a atmosphere of peer support, and encourages students to support one another and offer advice and criticism on each other's work.
