SWANSEA UNIVERSITY
Overall Rating

When I came my expectations were lower than they are now, I now have high expectations of Swansea and have seen the changes over the years. We have been offered a lot of support especially relating to whether COVID-19 has effected our studies and if there is anything else the university can do to support our studies. We have had modules changed around in order to optimise the next semester if we have access to campus where we will be offered a blended mix of online and in-person teaching

Student Union

Clubs and Societies

Pitches and sport facilities are available to anyone and have recently been relayed so they are at a world-class standard.

Accommodation

Rooms are large but private HMOs have many issues. We've had leaks, collapsed ceilings and vermin in the garden.

Uni Facilities

Can book library spaces to ensure social distancing. This year we haven't been able to access the labs yet but from undergraduate, I know the calibre of labs they have and are good quality to ensure I am taught a world-class standard of science.

Course and Lecturers

Everything has been online this semester but what would have been done in the lab we have had lectures on it and video tutorials to understand the concept and see it in action. Being online has presented some issues but we have weekly review sessions and surveys where we can anonymously raise issues, which have been addressed for the week after. Any changes we think of are considered and we are consulted on and feedback on the lecture material and style is recommended.

City Life

Very close to the university, beach and town so ideal for student balanced life style. No need for cars and always something to do if intersted.

Job Prospects

REgular events and Swansea employability award allows constant advice and help even after we graduate.

Student Support

Support is only an email away whether personal tutor, course director or student support services.
