What students say about architecture

The immense range of libraries compares well to other unis. The lack of uni funding for sport is a real shame at times though. The nightlife is good - you can make the most of it with good friends - and the city is generally lovely to walk around, with the benefit of being able to access all the colleges.

What students say about architecture

I am allergic to Costa Coffee so perhaps more coffee more sometimes around the campus maybe one of each floor cost? Students union website is confusing. Could not find much to do, even gym and student union events/activities student support could be better. the emails could be more shared around

What students say about architecture

There are excellent lecturers and student support services (particularly academic skills). The campus has a good feel and has a lot of outdoor seating which will be nice when the weather is warm. Lecture rooms are good but the seats are very uncomfortable. There is little impact from the students' union, for example there was no 'refreshers fayre' for January intake students, which also impacts the student life score.

The best aspect of my University is their Student support and I rate them the best in this regard, while their grading system is a bit too conservative, and I would wish that they become a little more liberal with marks/grades.

One of the reasons why this location is ideal for studying is its peaceful and quiet environment, which allows for maximum concentration and focus. Additionally, the abundance of resources and amenities nearby, such as libraries and cafes, make it convenient for students to access everything they need to succeed. However, there are still areas for improvement, such as increasing the availability of study rooms and enhancing the campus security measures to ensure the safety of students during late-night study sessions.

What students say about architecture

Best parts = The School of Management Building is a fantastic place to work and network with like-minded individuals. Also, the SU is brilliant for similar reasons and the library is a great location to concentrate. Playing sport is incredibly fun too at the University's fantastic facilities. Worst part = The bus journey to campus from Oldfield can be very tedious and difficult. Some buses get cancelled and the journey can be heavily delayed.

Studying about Architecture

An architecture degree can take anywhere between three and seven years to complete. Architects are responsible for designing structures used by people and so there is a high level of safety and reliability that needs to be upheld. Students typically complete five years of study plus two years of work experience before taking final exams. Students studying an architecture degree need to be both creative and logical as they will be developing design skills combined with elements of mathematics and engineering. Graduates either end up working for themselves or as part of larger companies. There is flexibility to move into different areas like spatial design, set design and conservation and environmental work.
