University of Northampton (reviews)

I really appreciated the supportive and approachable teaching staff at the University of Northampton. The course was practical and career focused, with plenty of opportunities for hands-on learning through project and placements. The campus had a friendly, inclusive feel, and I found it easy to connect with other students. I especially like the small class sizes, which made it easier to ask questions and get feedback. Overall I would recommend this university to anyone looking for a supportive environment with strong industry connections.

I really enjoyed my time at UoN, although it has been a long time since I was there! The town is good, the campus was excellent and my lecturers, especially English during Primary Ed, were outstanding! There was always something to do on campus, whether that be the SU, clubs or activities, so it was very welcoming and a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

It was a great study experience, with great modules. The programme was well organised, the campus was renewed, with all technologies needed. The collegues were very friendly and kind. Overall was a great experience.

Northampton Waterside Campus was finalized in 2018 and so my first impressions was the impressive modern look. This extended to the accommodation. As my first year was during COVID it was very enjoyable to have such nice accommodation with a living area to chill with my flatmates.

My lecturers made it clear how informed they were about topics and seemed to thoroughly enjoy what they taught us, which positively affected student learning attitudes.

Instead of the typically big lecture halls, we sat in classrooms of 10-30 which was so much better, lecturers had the opportunity to speak to us and they didn’t seem like far away individuals.

My biggest takeaway were the experiences I had and people I met working as a marketing student ambassador and school engagement ambassador.

I travelled to host UCAS fairs, took campus tours, and hosted open days, speaking to prospective students and parents about academic choices.

I also exposed younger children to the prospect of Higher Education and got to see their excitement when they realised what they could achieve.

Things that negatively affected my experience would be COVID. This is because I came out more reserved about joining societies and activities in my second year after spending the first year inside.
