Student review [#37200] for Media, Film and Television
at University of Nottingham - UoN

I would say that the quality of teaching at this university is positive and that this university provides services which are useful and beneficial to the wider student community, such as the Careers and Employability Service for instance. The university community is very cohesive, bringing in students from all walks of life and promoting an enriched academic community. The facilities on University Park campus are maintained excellently and I use them frequently (libraries, food outlets, self-study areas and so forth). The range of societies is very broad and there is something to suit every interest. However, an element that I do feel is overlooked at UoN is social fragmentation from the disparity of wealth between students; whilst this is more of a broader societal factor, in my personal experience, there is an assumed financial freedom to take part in many university activities which some students do not have. Aside from this, my experience of my course has been positive in terms of teaching and my personal engagement with the content, but there is not a community feel within the course itself compared to my relations with the wider university community. Despite this, I enjoy the campus environment itself, with green spaces and the feeling of safety and security.
