Learning in a practical way

This university has a lot of qualities such as adapting to students in order to optimize learning, and the desire to confront the student as quickly as possible with the world of work. On the other hand, I would criticize this school for poorly disseminated information and a gloomy community life.

Too new?

When I attended Pearson, it was relatively new and small. This meant that you could build good relationships with staff and tutors and be able to access any help you needed easily. However, despite how new the business school was, any criticism such as the course structure was unwelcome and always argued with. As each year passed the number of new students in each year increased significantly which caused problems with access to both tutors and quiet study spaces as they only had 2 floors and a basement which was shared with Pearson staff. As for the tutors, I received lectures and seminars from some amazing people who were extremely knowledgeable in accounting and made it so much easier to understand. However, being such a new school they hired tutors who they eventually found out - too late might I add - did not fit the role. Nothing was put in place to help rectify the fact that students had received sub-par teaching. Before attending Pearson College, they bragged about their business workshops and connections. Throughout my time at Pearson, I soon discovered that these workshops were few and far between but more importantly, they were often unrelated to my course or fully booked. One highlight is the fact that they added an office space for a start-up business to work and students were able to gain some experience working with them. Moving onto the facilities of the college, there's really not much to talk about. There's limited space at the campus, especially with the growing number of students. There used to be quiet study rooms for students but they were then taken and used as offices for the growing number of staff. Understandably they need office space but it's very hard to study without quiet spaces such as a library. Lastly, the degrees are validated by the University of Kent which although it gives you faith in the programme you are studying, you are faced with extended wait times for results compared to other universities which is especially frustrating in your final year.

The amazing professors/teachers there!

First of all since my campus was in the heart of Rome, the place and inside of the university was like a whole museum. I love how friendly and helpful the staff was, the professors were one in a million. I love how they did all their best to tell us about the subjects in detail and in a fun way with examples for us to get into it more. I liked how they make time and engage in it and actually help us to teach us, so it was all in one reading writing with our own brain and infos searching for the sources by ourselves listening but also being able to express our own way of knowledge on the topics!

Great

In my opinion choosing UOL for my undergrad was the best decision of my life. It not only taught be job ready skills it taught me how to approach a difficult task and win. The VLE portal was just awesome. The VLE or virtual learning environment provided me with necessary course and study material. Which was very helpful for a better understanding of Law.
