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

Electrical and electronic engineering, Year 1

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.

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.

It wasn’t too bad. Met a few people with similar background and couple other people who were different which was good. Could have done more events to socialise more with the new people or even meet more new people. Unfortunately I do not live out.. Library is always busy and packed but it has good facilities. SU bar is amazing and always eventful really nice place to chill and have a good time. There’s always people from all year group here. Everything relates to the stuff you do day to day on a daily basis and interesting things you didn’t know. Practicals are fun although labs can be very long. There’s always events going on which you can participate in and find new people. It’s a good area. A nice friendly environment. Make sure you know the basics of not you will struggle. Don’t fall back with the lectures make sure you’re up to date and always prepare early

Business Studies / Management, Year 2

(4.5)·By Rron V·Business· Jul 2021
It was one of the craziest experiences in my life. Two weeks straight I went partying and I got quite sick after it but it was absolutely worth it. Good old days.. Liberty court was amazing for me, the location was extraordinary and the rooms decent enough for me. The Uni itself is very organised and all the facilities and equipment are top notch. The professors were professional and very helpful. I had the feeling that they really wanted us to pass and to learn. I fell in Love with London immediately. The city, the parks, the people, the culture and the buzz.
