University of Nottingham - UoN Speciality : Philosophy
programme: Philosophy and Religion

The University of Nottingham is a good university, and I enjoyed it very much, that enjoyment is revolved around the city however, and less so the actual university. My 1st year was overshadowed by Covid and thus I didn’t actually get to see my lecturers until the second year. Once I finally into the lecture halls, I became wildly disappointed in the fact that nothing had changed from my year doing it on Microsoft Teams. Lecturers (often using previous year powerpoints) would just read slides, that were filled with text, offer little in conversation and simply tell you where to go and do your own reading and research. It got to a point in many of my modules where by the end of most terms, students wouldn’t ever turn up, as doing it from home on your laptop would have little to no affect than if you were to turn up at 9am and be in the lecture hall. I made a lot of great finds, and as I said the city is brilliant, but was it worth the student debt? Not at all!
