    Decent University

    I enjoyed the university, it had decent lecturers the campus was nice, they built a new student building and it was ready for my final year. It was a nice building, it had multiple transport options to get to and from uni. They had cheap breakfast. The halls of residence was decent. My only complaint is that one of them was a whole town away in Poole and unfortunately that’s where i ended up in my first year. It meant we had to travel quite far to get to and from uni as well as to get to any of the nightclubs in Bournemouth city center. After a night out we would have to share a taxi with literally anyone else going back to that halls of residence even if we’d never spoken a single word to them. The nightlife was pretty good too

    Bournemouth university Media equipment

    Doing a production course, such as media, TV, or movie production, gives you access to the university’s expansive equipment catalog. We are not only trained but encouraged to use industry-standard equipment, which is lent to us in confidence. We are treated like adults with the equipment and equipment spans so far from just, types of cameras, we are able to use equipment from all areas of production

    Great Sport Management Course

    I have studied at BU in the year of 2018/2019. I studied MSc in sport management as I am passionate about football.

    The course is great, it covers all aspects of both sport and management, from marketing to finance, psychology, learning how to manage all types of sport institutions and much more.

    As someone who is ignorant about how to manage sport institutions, I would say confidently that I graduated with full knowledge regarding the world of sport management.

    Additionally the tutors are fully experienced, well educated, articulate and fully knowledgable regarding their field of studies and experience.

    For me it was a great experience from all aspects, I would highly recommend this course especially if you are a beginner and want to put your first step into the world of business and sport.
