University of the West of Scotland - UWS Speciality : Psychology
programme: Psychology

Teachers were class, ran a great programme. Unfortunately the “corporate” uni and all its services, from finance to student support, equipment and resources are an absolute fail. Uni still blaming IT problems on a cyber attack that happened 2 years ago. Fee structure disadvantages part time students. Rigidly enforced a full time on campus study policy half way through the course when hybrid/remote study policy was in place upon starting. This was an unfair disadvantage to part time students, working people as well as mothers etc. It is discriminatory on the grounds of age.

The University of the West Scotland is a reputable institution with a rigorous teaching approach and a calm learning environment. Since it is convenient to access from anywhere in the world, the facility is the greatest.

There was a lack of support during a challenging course. Some lecturers were rude and unhelpful, not really explaining what we had to do for our assignments. This led to classmates failing the course.

We had less time than expected to complete our dissertation. The course didn’t really open doors for me, I didn’t get much out of it and it was a stressful year
