My programme has significantly expanded my understanding of the business world. Through opportunities such as competitions, interactive projects, and coursework, I’ve been able to develop both my practical skills and confidence in applying what I’ve learned.
However, one area that could be improved is communication. At times, important information is said to have been shared but doesn’t always reach students, which can be frustrating and makes it harder to stay fully informed.
do NOT do psychology here, it is an absolute stressful nightmare from the start… you wont just be doing psychology, youll be doing coding too and computer science stuff. Because you definitely signed up for and wanted that too right??? wrong. its traumatic.
even the other modules, are not it. i do not know how it got rated so high. I am a few months off finishing my course, but i have been crying about it since my first week in. I should have dropped out. i could sense how awful it was about to be. So seriously, consider your other options!!!!
The staff are also extremely insensitive and unkind, especially when you are having issues (e.g., illness, family death, etc). I was told it is no excuse to not come into uni… excuse me!!
Please, please, please do not do psychology at Lancaster Uni.
View moreA great place to study in great grounds. Near to the hiscity of Lancaster with its attractions. There was a wide range of courses to choose from and the qualifications are well recognised. It has a good reputation and is a well respected University
View moreI absolutely love Lancaster University, it is absolutely perfect for me. My course (BSc Marketing and Design) is a perfect combination of theory and creativity and I’ve learnt so much already. The fact that it is a campus university also really suited me, you feel so safe on campus and in town and there is easy travel between them. The societies and LUSU are also incredible and cater to everyone’s needs and passions and you always feel looked after and supported. I truly could not have asked for a better university.
View moreMy first year in the BSc Mathematics programme at Lancaster has been an exercise in advanced independent problem-solving, starting with the classic puzzle: “What on earth was the lecture actually about?”
While I genuinely enjoy the intellectual challenge, my lecturers sometimes communicate with the clarity of a cryptic crossword clue. The main point of a lecture can occasionally feel like a hidden variable we’re meant to estimate, often leaving me unsure of what questions to even ask. Let’s just say it’s built character—and a heavy reliance on the fantastic support system.
And that’s the real win. The environment and campus are absolutely lovely, buzzing with a fantastic diversity of people from all over the world. It’s a great place to be. When the lecture material has me stumped, there are plenty of resources and brilliant people to help us find the missing pieces, from the maths support centre to study groups that have become my academic lifeline.
I’d recommend this programme to students who are self-starters, curious puzzle-solvers, and who don’t mind occasionally treating a lecture like an escape room. If you’re willing to actively seek out the excellent help available, you’ll find a strong foundation for your degree and an incredibly vibrant community to enjoy along the way.
