Leeds beckett

(5)·By michelle e·Sports· Jun 2024
Leeds is a great city to go to university in. It offers many options for dining out and a variety of nightclubs. The course I study, Sport Business Management, gives me opportunities to watch different sports teams. The accommodation at Leeds Beckett is outstanding. If you have any trouble, the staff is always there to offer support.

Physio students thoughts

(5)·By Issy S·Physiotherapy· Jun 2023
Honestly didn't expect anything less! The physio society is great and the lectures are very fun (personally) I know learnings not for everyone! But Leeds Beckett was the best choice for me for including my sporting interest and academic successes into one place.

Leeds Beckett Year One

(5)·By Charlotte S·Psychology· Jun 2023
Whilst Leeds Beckett is well know across the country for its high achieving sports teams and sports based courses. It also provides an excellent experience for acedemic based degrees such as social sciences and humanities in the city campus. I've loved my course so far as the lecturers are really understanding and always put the student first. They provide you with all the opportunities for help and support with whatever you may be struggling with even if it doesn't apply to the course itself. The student union is absolutely lush with a cheap Starbucks so it's definitely a win! The city is brill and deffo gives the students a well rounded uni experience for social experiences and nightlife

It was amazing! The university had set up so mamy great events. Found it much easier to make friends and meet new people without any hesitation. They really planned out fresher week according to everyones taste and expectations. Well, it was much better than i thought it would be. I do not live in an accommodation as I still live with my aprents. However, i have heard amazing reviews on how the accomdations are really good and the way they are looked after by the staff is the best part. The facilities are top class. You have everything in each area you go. You can go into individual classrooms that are free to study and use the appliances they have. The library is my favourite as it has everything. From borrowing laptops, using computers, borrowing books which you are desperate for and personal study space for when working independently and in groups. To add to this, the books in the library are all up to date to the teaching and whatever you need is found in the livrary or on the online library which is set up. For example, they have got an online site where you can find computer generated books rather than getting it in person. My course is amazing. The lectures and seminars are in so much detail. I always get asked by my friends who do the same course in different universities about my content and when i tell them, they grt quite suprised as I have been taught most of the stuff in more detail and depth than they have. It shows how even though uni is independent, these lectures and seminars by the teahcers have helped us out alot, to the point where there's actually less things to do outside of uni to understand the content. I've lived in this city my whole life. This place is affordable for most uni students and you have an amazing experience. Everyone is so friendly and well mannered. You don't need to hesitate on asking anyone for anything or even making new friends. You learn something new about this city everyday.

Business Studies / Management, Year 3

(5)·By Amber A·Business· Jul 2021
It was very lively and fun, met lots of new people and made friends whilst getting to know people on my course. It was more like an ice breaker for getting to know people but it was a nice when to have a bit off fun while settling in. There is plenty of accommodation to choose from to suit the needs of everyone. They staff are always on hand if you need any help and are always friendly. Every week there is also something going on like cocktail making or special weeks where they hand our free stuff so that's a bonus. The rooms are very nice and got everything you need. Any problems with the rooms you can contact the staff at reception and they will happily help and if not security are there too. The library was very helpful in terms of studying as it was open 24/7 and you were able to book rooms for study and borrow laptops if needed. Staff are also very helpful as well as IT if there any problems. Classrooms where also clean and tidy and kept to a minimum. Only problem is some don't have bins but not much of an issue. Other areas I didn't experience too much but overall it was well layout out and space of space to study or meet friends before class. The course is good as it's very interactive and a lot to learn about with a lot of help if needed. There's a lot of variation in terms of modules and assessments so it's nice not everything is the same the whole through so it doesn't get boring. Lectures were good as you could sit and listen and ask questions even if you were shy there was always one of two that weren't afraid and you were able to hear things you wouldn't think to ask about. Leeds is a very vibrant city full of live and character. There was always something going on and plenty of places to explore. Great if you love shopping and eating out as it's full of shopping centres and pubs and restaurants. Full of students so plenty of chances to meet new people and feel like you belong.

Freshers week is extremely fun! It's the chance to get meet new people before you fully start university which can make a big difference for some students as being away from home in a completely different city where you don't know anyone can be very hard therefore having attending freshers fair and activities made me feel a lot more comfortable when properly starting university. My first year accommodation was amazing ! It was a two minute walk from uni which meant I could literally just roll out of bed if I was running late . The staff are very friendly and made me feel settled and I made good friends with my flat mates. The library is one of my favour to places in the university . This is because it is three Floors and if it's full you can still find somewhere to study . The student union was very chill as you could study and be chill with friends . Food was also available The course is hard but still very interesting . The lecturers are always there if you need them. If you ever missed a lecture you could easily catch-up online The city is amazing . Because I lived in city centre first year I was so close to everything from all the food places to all the clubs
