Aston University

I had the best 4 years of my life at university! I loved the experience of living out away from home and I made friends for life whilst I was there!
I also loved how flexible the learning was and the ability to do work in my own time when I felt I was best productive!

Great Uni ngl

I am a final year student, studying Spanish at Aston University. My overall university experience at Aston has been incredible. Firstly, the campus accommodation is exceptional and the campus itself is so convenient due to its compact nature, and all the necessities are easily accessible. Also, Birmingham town centre is a 10 minute walk from campus which features a large number of shops, restaurants and a great variety of nightlife.

Furthermore, the standard of teaching on my course has been outstanding, the lectures are all experts in their field and always approachable if extra help is needed.

It was a good experience to kickstart university life and a great way to get introduced to other people Their accommodation is quite good in comparison to other Universities and is good to stay in The facilities are great with an enjoyable atmosphere whether it be in the student union or the library The courses and lectures had good material to study from and it is easy to follow whilst studying along during lectures or at home The city life is good as there are various things to do close-by to the University

Really good, loads of events to attend to meet people and the freshers fair for the societies/clubs was really good! Really clean and on campus location so easy to get to class Library is really good although there could be more individual seating in the silent areas as studying on group floors can be distracting. The gym is brilliant! And the new SU is fab My Neuroscience course is really informative and all the lecturers are great at explaining stuff and are there to help. The practical sessions especially are better than many universities I went to open days for. Being in the city but on a campus university is great because everything you need is on campus but you have the social aspect of being so close to the city, and easy transport links for getting home at the holidays.

Freshers week was an excellent opportunity to meet new people and make friends at the university Aston university accommodation is standard and simple but very comfy The facilities at Aston is great you have a wide range of support from all facilities The course is very interesting as it delves into topic I am interested about and the lectures are given in a clear way City life is nice and fun you get to meet lots of new people

Freshers week was good, met a lot of people there was not much going on in campus though.. The accommodation was very good, very clean when I moved it and facilitating. There was a study room within the block too and the kitchen area was large enough to accommodated everyone Studios union building is brand new and a very nice place to hang out.. there's entertainment as well as a cafe and a bar .. there's studios in there as well as project rooms. The library is good however very overcrowded. Sports facilities are decent The course is hectic however it is organised well into the different modules. The lecture timetables are at convenient times too Birmingham is a really nice place to live, the Univeristy is in the city centre so you get the best of both worlds in terms of campus life but also being in the city centre. Many food places and grocery shops as well as shopping markets and bullring

It was amazing ! I enjoyed my first week and the atmosphere was very welcoming:) now I am a full time accountant for a private buisness The atmosphere was very welcoming . Amazing people, lectures, the accommodation I was staying at was very nice. I felt like I was at home The library was my favourite place . There was a variety of accounting books and a very nice, calm atmosphere /working enviroment . The course helped me to become who I am today and the lectures helped me to understand the course better . The lectures helped me understand how student life was . I loved being in the city as they helped me get used to being in the crowd and exploring other parts of the city

Freshers week was possibly one of the best times at uni and a great introduction to student life and an excellent opportunity to meet new people. Fantastically organised by a great student union to help us have a great week

Being from Birmingham, I chose to live in private accommodation but I have visited the halls with my friends and have found them a great community space for meeting new people and have quite up to date decor and facilities

The library is a fantastic space to work in with a wealth of information to utilise for research and broadening the mind - the smart search system is excellent for finding journals and books to help you. The student union bar is a good place to meet with friends and has great priced drinks

The course is brilliantly taught through a variety of different ways such as tutorials, lectures, case studies etc which allow different levels of student participation and direction from lecturers and tutors which is great for variety in learnings and allows you to apply the knowledge you gain

Birmingham is a great city, the student area at Aston is very close to the city centre which has everything you could wish for such as shops and restaurants at the bullring and great night life around broad street

My course (Business Computing and IT) is great for those who want to be part of technology who haven’t had much experience with it.
The course is focussed on bridging and integrating business and computing which makes the application of IT understandable in the world of business

Aston is the best uni in the midlands. The university is in a prime location and has a vibrant energy. It's also great for placement and career opportunities. Also, extremely diverse.
