LSE is a great place to create life-long connections and friends. There's a certain sense of community that is special to the university. The staff are hands-on and approachable. The facilities are modern and well-equipped.
My programme is taught by quality lecturers! everyone seems to be very supportive and really interested in your learning. I am enjoying it so far as it is very interactive, they introduce practical examples, and monitor your progress.

The facilities of the school of computing are great - very modern building, newest equipment, campus located in the city centre (most likely you don’t need to commute there by metro or a bus). One major thing however that is lacking is the organisation. Being a third-year student I still have the same feeling - the program is written very chaotically. In 2019 there was that revolution of the programme (to keep learning the newest technology) to which lectures and demonstrators still feel a bit unadapted. I hope this will get better in the next year or two years. However, after that time, the taught technology may change again (which is good) and it will take another couple of years for the lecturers to be fluent in what they teaching (which is not good).

I have had a very positive experience in my first year at this university. I have found the staff very friendly, all content very engaging and felt I have been challenged throughout the year. One aspect that is particularly strong is the employability at Aston with all modules focusing on giving students hard skills to increase their employability. Only complaint would be some administrative problems such as delayed exam results and some issues with timetabling at the start of term.
I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
