What I liked was the building itself, it is rather stunning, however... Whilst attending an annual PhD review, derogatory remarks were made against my speech, which is often slurred and incoherent when stressed due to being autistic. Bangor University not only ignored and undermined my complaint, but went further to add additional abuse. Discrimination policies and the Equality Act 2010 mean nothing to Bangor University. I would advise avoiding.

My experience at LJMU has been parred none and has exceeded my expectations. The facilities are superb and staff members are accommodating, approachable and welcoming. Honestly speaking, attending LJMU feels like a home away from home. Socially the university has a very inclusive culture. I cannot speak for all programs, but the MA in Education has been life and career-transforming for me. I am very happy I chose LJMU.
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.
