Postgraduate Reviews of Courses at Heriot-Watt University

Everything about the university is really great but I definitely did have a bad experience with the accommodation team but I have stopped drenching myself into those matters so I feel much better now read full review
I had a great experience in university till now. Great support from teachers and non teaching staff. And enjoying a lot on campus read full review
The best part is that I genuinely enjoy my lectures and workshops, which is why I’ve maintained full attendance since beginning my studies. I also wish we could have more time for the Strategic Change case-study workshop extending it to two hours instead of one would allow us to explore the material more deeply and participate more effectively. read full review
The teaching staff is very good in teaching , they do interact well with students and make sure that they are understanding everything. The student union is also very nice, always ready to help and they do introduce new schemes for well being of students read full review

MSc in Toxicology

HERIOT-WATT UNIVERSITY

Amberlee - November 2025

The university is a bit far out from the city centre, so the reliance on public transport to get a food shop or go out is quite heavy, and that can add up. The on-campus facilities are quite expensive but we have to make do based upon the location. The disabilites team are fantastic, they listen to the student and implement things that actually help. The activities that the student union put on are more catered to freshers and undergraduates, and so its ahrder to make friends and have a social life, especially as a masters student. read full review

The best part it is everyone within the university. Everyone is so friendly when you put yourself out there to talk to them. There are a few shy nuts, but generally most people are willing to help. The support from the faculty is just amazing. read full review
