Computing / Computer Science, Year 2
(4.5)·By Marta I·Computing· Jul 2021 It was very interesting - apart from regular activities we had a trip to Bletchy Park to learn a bit about Alan Turning and even though not many people showed up, it was really nice. Apart from that, we had a Freshers Fair to learn about different societies and such. We also had some activities to get to know our project group for the year. Overall it was a really nice experience. They are quite reasonably priced concidering it's still technically London. I lived in the halls with shared bathroom, there was 5 of us sharing a shower and a toilet, and it was kept really nicely. We had cleaners come in every week day and they did deep cleaning twice every week. The people were really nice, and the maintenance was very helpful anytime something broke. They really surprised me, I was expecting something rather bad, but everything was amazing. The library is my favourite place on campus, with computers everywhere and separate rooms to book for your group study. Classrooms, lecture halls and lab rooms all had computers to use. Our lecturers and module leaders were always really helpful, letting everyone ask questions at any point of the lecture and explaining it in detail. They always tried to get us to talk to them which made me more focused in class. They would always stay with the students after the lecture if they had any problems and help them. Everyone was available for 1:1 meetings as well which turned out to be really helpful. I think it's a typical student-y life. We have a club and a pub on campus which are always full on karaoke Tuesdays and weekends. There are lots of places to eat and go out as well.
