The University of Durham features excellent facilities that have been put up for the students as well as a terrific tutoring program in which any student may join in order to learn. It is, in our views, the global highest university.

I think this Uni has many stereotypes that are both, true but also false.

I really like how this university is in a cute town area, and how the facilities are well funded. Moreover, I like how the lecturers are well educated and passionate about what they teach.

I dislike how there is little diversity of people. Being part of minority in terms of race, sometimes this tends to make me feel like an outsider.

Being a student at one of the top universities in the nation is in itself an incredible opportunity for growth and development. I study psychology here and I can’t say that I have been disappointed with the teaching. In fact, partial online learning which I was very worried about, has turned out to be a great idea as it gives flexibility in learning, and allows to pause whenever needed and replay. However, the only thing that I can think of being a downside of studying at Durham, is definitely the major supermarkets like Tesco or Lidl being on the other side of town. There are buses of course, but these aren’t very reliable ( I learned it the hard way, unfortunately). Many students opt into going to a smaller Tesco in the city centre as an alternative. In terms of social life, I believe it’s great, there are also many opportunities to meet people such as events organised by colleges so there is honestly an option for everybody! There are many international students, which for me is one, is a huge comfort and makes dealing with similar issues easier! Amazing and helpful professors!

I had a great experience at Durham. It’s diverse yet integrated student body combined with the quality of teaching and beauty of the place made my experience incomparable. I have recently finished my 3 year undergraduate degree in Philosophy and Psychology but have decided to go back to Durham to pursue my masters in Management because of how great my experience has been.

The collegiate system means that there’s great pastoral care and a community feel. The city itself is small and homely with everything you could need. The work is just the right amount of challenging.
