University of Brighton - UoB (reviews)

Studying at the University of Brighton allows me to flexiblility of working and studying at the same time – so I don’t have to chose between the two. As the course I’m studying is also online, this allows me to keep up with my social life and job in my home town while enjoying the range of oppounities Brighton has to offer.

If you are looking to discover your true potential and become the best version of yourself then University of Brighton is the place to be. Giving you the option to choose from a multitude of high quality practice based courses.

University isn’t for everyone, it requires one to have independence and time management. From my experience I had the chance to make friends on my course and learn how to complete group work performing as a team. Learning how to actually answer question at an undergraduate level is a must and would recommend that students create a relationship with their lecturers in order to succeed.

I studied Media Production at the University of Brighton between the years of 2018-2021, overall my experience was mixed. I had several opportunities which were cut short due to the Covid 19 virus closing down all campus based activities, which lead to a dampener on the full experience which I should have gained. That being said I also had several experiences which showed how good the university could be, this included the use of facility within the building as we had access to a full television studio set up in which we learned how to apply knowledge to a working experience. The university libraries are vast and allow for different learning styles to be applied within a single space, which is ultimately very positive, this can be said about the campus’s as well as they allow for a variety of styles to be portrayed depending on the individual.

I really love Brighton! I like the university and my course. The lecturers are really helpful and passionate about the subject. However, I feel like I’m more in love with the city than the University. The university is amazing but I think the city appeals to me more.

The university is pretty welcoming and helpful to international students. The placement year offered in the university for the 3rd year is something that I really like about my course. So far, there’s no any such thing that I don’t like about my university.

I had an amazing experience at this University. The curriculum for my degree had a vast range of content so that I can confidently say I feel intellectually enriched. The compassion offered to students by tutors and staff made me feel safe and supported. Especially considering the altered learning structure that was a consequence of the pandemic.

During my first year, (2020) I experienced the Covid-19 pandemic with lockdowns and so did not attend any lectures on campus. Everything was conducted online and it was pretty hard to socialise with people on the course. With everything going on, it was pretty understandable.
The second year, (2021) was disastrous. Although the lectures were all in person and things felt a bit more normal, like being able to socialise and meet lecturers, the majority of this year was spent on strikes. This meant most of what I was meant to be taught, I had to teach myself through presentation slides that mostly very brief because the majority of lectures were cancelled. For paying the tuition fee we pay each year, this is definitely is not what we asked for at all. Understandably, there are reasons for strike but the management should be able to help it’s many students succeed in their degree.
Now in my third and final year, it has so far been the best but unfortunately this is what my university experience should have been like.
I have all my lectures, the lectures are great to ask anything.
