Remarkable infrastructure. Renewed buildings and well-equipped classrooms. One of the best libraries to study with friends or in the quiet section alone.
The lecturers are very professional and always available to help you, kind and supportive.
There are many courses to help you with the English language for academic purposes, internship programs, and skill development courses which can be conducted between only you and a tutor.
Campus life is amazing and the Students' union always organizes the best events!

The staff are really helpful and understanding

(5)·By Zoe·Other· Oct 2018
I sitll remember the day that i went to city university on an open day like four years ago, and as soon as i saw it i knew it was the university i was going to go to. it has been the best three years of my life in education and for other opportunities as well as making friends that will stay with me forever - you cant get there any other type of education or employment

i want to be a singer or a performer so learning all the academic side was really good, its good to fully understand and study something deep so you get it. the staff were really helpful to me and my personal advisors/tutors were fantastic. any roblems and it would be sorted or i would know where to go to fix it

the university has the Guildhall School of Music and Drama where in my course you had the option to have individual lessons or tuition to help you which is a great aspect to city uni

you can even have lessons on being an musician/instrumentalist and i really think they open up opportunities in education or things after once you get a degree

Engineering, Year 1

(5)·By heidar r·Finance· Oct 2018
I'm doing electronical engineering and it's pretty cool. However I was forced by my family to go uni, it's not too bad but not something I would've chosen.

However the university is fantastic, but the bad side to it is that the library isn't open 24/7, like almost every other university.

Electrical and electronic engineering, Year 1

(5)·By Farzeen M·Electrical Engineering· Oct 2018
Amazing! The Year 2s made us feel so comfortable and convinced us to be more confident. Because of the students union and other students and teachers, I've settled in so quickly and have already made friends that I know I'll be friends with for life.

Civil Engineering, Year 3

(5)·By Arman A·Civil Engineering· Jul 2021
In my experience people did a bit of both. There will be freshers events during the day for you to attend - mostly set up by the different societies, then at night the unions put on their student nights, etc. However, some people do venture out and go to the nightclubs/bars in the city centre. Just do whatever you're interested in, but be sure to make the most of it - you only get one "true" fresher's week. The maintenance team are also super responsive, if anything is not 100% in my flat, I can get it fixed in the next morning. There are several common rooms which are amazing for any type of meetings.. The rooms are fine! I have visited other good residences and I find the rooms here among the best ones. Loads of space for storage, good furniture conditions, ... really cannot complain. The library continues to fulfil its role as the heart of the university, despite the move away from print and towards electronic resources. The work the library undertakes contributes directly to the institution's academic mission and to equipping students with the skills and knowledge they need to achieve academically and to maximise their employability. You acquire logical thinking and critical analysis skills. Decision-making skills are improved. ... All of these skills are greatly needed in the professional world, in any field. So, engineers tend to do better no matter which sector they choose, and they also tend to make good managers. City living can be compact at the best of times, so moving to the countryside can have huge lifestyle and health benefits Gardens tend to be larger than in cities or towns, where sometimes outdoor space is even non-existent, while having the countryside on the doorstep means plenty of fresh rural air for great health.

Nursing, Year 3

(5)·By Aliya s·Nursing· Jul 2021
Very welcoming, staff and volunteers made sure students queries were answered. Volunteers helped students sign up to social societies On-site management and staffed reception are available during business answers so you'll never be alone. There's also 24-hour CCTV in operation and security guard on duty out of hours it's pretty safe. All facilities are quite spacious for studying purposes, you can book library staff to help with literature for assignments etc '-course offers stimulation practise where you practise nursing skills before heading to placement. Lectures are concise and helpful material. '- extremely friendly environment, lots of society clubs to join overall a great uni
