Exceptional Academic Home

(5)·By Folasayo O·Management· Dec 2023
Bournemouth University has been an exceptional academic home. The vibrant campus, supportive faculty, and cutting-edge facilities create an ideal environment for learning. The emphasis on practical applications and industry connections sets it apart. The diverse community and myriad extracurricular opportunities foster personal growth. I am grateful for the invaluable experiences and skills gained during my time here. Bournemouth University's commitment to innovation and student success is truly preparing me for a successful future. I highly recommend BU for its unwavering dedication to academic excellence and holistic development.

University support

(5)·By Boyazit Q·Product design· Jun 2023
BU university helps you with anything you will need when applying and when you already came from accomodations which are about 7 to social life. There are a lot of events including sports with free vouchers and discounts. The course will include everything you will need in order to succeed when applying for job in future. Talking about facilities, there are a lot of resources from cafe to library where you can find anything you will need in school. Accommodations are clean and sticks to the standards of a good accommodations with staff support and helping you to settle down faster in your new house. One thing i found bad about BU is that they don't inform you about planning and renting another house for second year of BA students. But they also help you to find house if you struggle, so you can live with your friends splitting the rent for the house.

Kind regards,
Boyazit

(5)·By Giftson D·Film· Jul 2021
Everything was new to me. Saw things which i have never seen before and had a great to enjoy with friends Its peaceful and very close to the university. The bus service is great with every 10 minute frequency. Rooms were spacious and comfortable Library timings were so convenient.Using the University labs 24*7 was the best facility ever since my schooling days The course is innovative and get all the creative inputs out. The lectures were appropriate to the subjet and with equal intervals At first i had Culture shock but later i felt like this is where i belong. I just dont want to leave the city. Its so clean and welcoming. People in here are so kind

Amazing Experience

I loved every part of Bournemouth Uni- from the campus to the beach - it changed me for the better and I met my partner and friends for life. I got a dream job 3 months after graduating too!

Accounting and Finance, Year 2

(5)·By Megan·Accounting· Oct 2018
Bournemouth University has been a great experience for me. I would say in terms of student support, the uni is great for guiding and helping students through the biggest life shift!

However, because there is so much building development going on, we don't really get that great lecture rooms or seminar rooms for learning. Obviously future students will really benefit but currently, going to the library with building work in the background isn't ideal.

Sports / Sports Science, Year 2

(5)·By Joe E·Sports· Jul 2021
This was going back, and don't remember much but I do remember having introduction for each topic with my new lectures and just covering what we we're going to be down this semester. My accommodation was really good. Was in a great location and loved the way my accommodation was set up even though it wasn't the most expensive! Staff were amazing and got on really well with them Library and student areas is where I spent most of my time regarding uni work so it's everything I could ask for really. We had 5 aside on campus and had a sports hall. Would have loved a bigger gym as there wasn't much space to work out so had to move gym for that but otherwise was really good My course is quite broad and covers various things which I'm interested in! Lectures in the first year were good but preferred seminars as I could engage more in the work City life was quality. Bournemouth had everything. The beach, clubs and bars! Really couldn't wrong. Still waiting to experience summer time there as COVID put that on hold! But would say it's one of the best places to be with the right people
