Being at Strathclyde has taught me to be more confident in myself as an individual and in my studies. I have learned a lot more regarding lab techniques which I never got to experience back in high school, which has allowed me to boost my confidence within my subject area.

The first year course is very interesting and engaging but is not very intensive, so it is very beneficial for getting your bearings without being stressed.

Freshers week was full of fun events that helped me make friends and get to know the uni better, It made me feel really comfortable and at home! The accommodation is great, and there's a wide range offered for different budgets. It is at very close access to the uni, with halls being right beside the main uni buildings. Facilities are excellent! There is a brand new gym with a great pool. The library also offers several floors for different study and has many books and computers at access. My course is very interesting and I really enjoy it. I've made great friends along the way too. The lecturers are great at explaining and teaching the course material and there is additional help offered to those struggling. City life in Glasgow City is amazing. There's a wide range of bars, restaurants, shops at easy access. Nothing more a student could want.

I enjoyed my freshers week. There were a lot of things to do, like free food events, introductions to social clubs, and gigs. I enjoyed meeting new people on my course. I have lived at home for the duration of my course. However what I have seen from inside friend's flats, it looks to be really good. Spacious and a good place to study. Really good! The library is excellent and one of my favourite buildings on campus. I found it really engaging to learn all about how the mind and body interact with each other. The lecturers have all made a huge effort to make their classes interesting and have been really supportive outside of class time. Really good. Being in the city centre of glasgow meant we could easily go shopping or go for a coffee off campus if we had an hour free. There are loads of great cafes to study in right next to Strathclyde, which was perfect.

Freshers week at Strathclyde was packed full of inclusive activities. There really was something for everybody allowing you to make connections early on. Chancellor's Halls were in great condition and were cleaned professionally on a weekly basis. The rooms were standard size but felt light and inviting. The library was fantastic and had earned awards for its modern set up. The Sport centre is brand new as of 2018 and offers great value for money. The course was flexible and offered a variety of business subjects. This allowed you to shape the course to your needs and really get the most out of it Glasgow itself has a buzzing nightlife with endless restaurants and bars to try. For day time activities the west end hosts a number of museums and coffee shops to wander through.

It was amazing! The university really went out it's way to make freshers week exciting Never thought I'd miss the livingston tower but Covid has me dreaming about it Group study is my favourite part of the library, all the books and facilities are easily accessible too The course is really interesting, especially because I want to work in this field I love being in the city around all the other students. “Main character” vibes

It was good. Everyone was nice with me. I felt like i was at home. The accomodation is good. Students are sometimes stupid but most of the time it's okay. The facilities are great. We have a well equiped gym. We have really good professors. That makes it easy for us Glasgow is so cold. Specially for a man like me coming from africa.

Business Studies, Year 2

Good fun, I enjoyed most when in first year as I was new to the uni! But every year is a good laugh! The union at Strathclyde is great! So easy to make friends with other students either doing the same course or a different course as you.

I don’t stay in Strathclydes accommodation as I already lived in Glasgow before starting the course. However I have been to a few parties at halls and the rooms/flats are a good size and very handy for the campus buildings. Slightly jealous as I have to get up earlier in mornings than those that stay on campus. Staying in halls would be good for making friends as well.

Library is a good size! Lots of computers and areas for silent private study but also good areas for group work. At the business school there is a lot of group projects so the library is great for all meeting up to discuss a project. The new gym is also amazing! So big and always space on machines

I study business analysis and tech. I love the class as it’s a rather small class so it’s easier to get help if needed from lecturers. Also good as the full year are rather close and can help each other out. I also study business law and those classes are really interesting. The business school is great as it encourages you to attend networking/internship talks and meetings

Glasgow has great night life! Always a party going on! Glasgow is known to be a friendly city, if you need help just ask! Glasgow has so many good pubs/bars. Ashton lane in west end is my favourite. Especially in summer so nice to sit outside with a cocktail with the girls

It’s hard work and you need to be able to motivate yourself to keep going. Uni is not like school anymore. You have to get on and do things yourself. And at Strathclyde attendance Is not always compulsory so sometimes it is tempting to skip a lecture or class.but just always be careful and catch up and make the most of the good classes and learning that you will do. The uni is great, highly recommend! The business school is well known so it’s very popular
