Robert Gordon University - RGU (reviews)

If you’re looking for a university to learn relevant skills, techniques and approaches, as close as possible to your desired industry of work, then RGU is where it’s at.
Modules are set up thoroughly to equip you with the very best of the best. They are therefore quite challenging but you wouldn’t want it any other way if you want to be the best 🙂
Teachers are excellent in content delivery, explaining concepts and theories, applying them to the external world and most importantly the current relevance, due to the constant dynamism of society.
Student life in an owner culture, responsibility, however, there are lots of help centres all over campus to assist with literally anything and everything. They don’t just want you to come to them, they come to you too with regular checkup emails, workshops and student-led activities.
There are people from all walks of life creating a special international atmosphere. Almost like the biggest airports.
RGU goes the extra mile with placements, internships, career workshops and many others.
With all the effort RGU puts in churning out the very best of graduates, my career prospects look very bright indeed.

Great supportive staff, during exam time coursework time, even after graduating there is always support available from someone. A great environment with top facilities such as a top-end library campus gym facilities swimming facilities. Overall a great place to spend your time studying.

My time at Robert Gordon was really great. The Lecturers were great and very helpful, classes were very enlightening. The timetable was made convenient for students.
I would always continue to recommend the University to others as it caters a lot to international students, and it also creates placement opportunities for students to gain wor experience.

It is a pocket-friendly institution with niche facilities, great faculty members, and impeccable student assistance systems in place. The LLM Course is fast-paced with support being readily available to anyone undergoing a strenuous time. Undoubtedly you should give the RGU courses a try since the quality cuts across the faculties.

I would highly recommend RGU. The staff is very helpful and willing to sit with you during their free time to help you with any issues you may have during your studies. I was also given the opportunity to take part in the Erasmus programme that not all universities offer which was an added bonus.

The only reason I have given 4* is due to the grading system. The way that grades are carried over from 3rd year to 4th is flawed and merit within classifications should be revisited.

Overall, I would recommend this university as it offers a number of extracurricular activities such as student representatives, sports teams and volunteering opportunities. The careers staff are very helpful and let you know how you can use these opportunities to enhance your career prospects.

Robert Gordon University provides the requisite modern facilities, teaching and social setting for student learning. The campus in itself is “healing” with beautiful surroundings. What stood out for me was the availability and support of faculty members to not only my academic needs but my entire mental and social wellbeing (needs). It was a great experience studying in this gold standard university for my masters program and currently pursuing a doctoral degree. From my first day, I knew instinctively that RGU was the place for me. I just knew and I was (am) right.

Very close community and friendly atmosphere. New building and very nice facilities for Health, engineering and business. Lecturers were always approachable and visible.

The campus is around 15 minutes from the city centre but there is a very regular bus service to and from the university.

There is a big focus on student opinion and striving to improve courses and university life.

Robert Gordon University provides a lot of interesting modules. The theory is combined with practice really well.

What I loved about the university is the international environment, where I had the chance to develop my skills further.

Robert Gordon is excellent in terms of transitioning new students into uni life,
There’s an array of generous courses and disciplines to study.
One of the highlights of Robert Gordon is its online resources service (Moodle) it’s set up in a way that it’s easily accessible.
Although the security around campus could be regulated better.
