Student review [#16200] for Luxury Brand Management
at University of Southampton

Professors are always supportive of students in and outside the classroom. The university gives a very good student experience from learning until the extracurricular activities. Students have many choices to join activities, clubs or societies in the university. Besides, student event organization will host field trips per month and any students can join for free.
The university has top facilities and its student union responses promptly student’s feedback or issues in term of Coronavirus outbreak. Student hotline is always available to take care of student wellbeing or any issues if needed.
Most of the campuses are located near supermarkets, stores and restaurants or city centre. However, two campuses in Winchester are quite isolated but they are near a big Tesco.
As a postgraduate student from Vietnam, my experience this far academically speaking is good so far. Lectures have clear standards as to what coursework should be and contain practical and academic knowledge. Mark schemes were introduced on the first day of the course.
However, there are some bad experiences I have been through while studying here:
1/ Lots of students have passed the pre-sessional English course without having their real transcript. The university increased listening exam mark without a transparent reason.
2/ The changing of mark schemes due to Coronavirus outbreak is inappropriate and disrespect the student’s effort for the whole progress.
Hence, it’s a questionable concern about the academic ranking of the university.
