Overall, I'd say Coventry University is great. It has great facilities and great workers that are there to help. I am on a Law course and find the Law librarian very useful. I am not in any societies however I am considering joining one.

Overall the staff here in incredibly friendly and supportive. It has been hard to adjust to life here but the tutors have been a breath of fresh air. The facilities are high-tech containing all the resources a students needs.

Studying civil engineering at Cov, came through clearing. Although it wasn't listed in my choices I'm happy to be here. Great location, amazing people and state of the art facilities.

The campus is nicely laid out, building are within short 5 min walking distances, constantly updating facilities and equipment, currently in the process of extending the library which is long overdue in addition to multiple new student accommodations. The university provides lots of helpful services for students from free books to, assistance with writings and maths. Advantage modules to allow students to gain extra cerdit in other subjects external from their core subject. Staff dedicated to aiding students in career searching during their time at the university and after they have graduated also.

The University is honestly the most modern in the UK but the level of teaching in some modules is very average. However, field trips, modern facilities and all the opportunities for self-development CU gives you are worth it. Nonetheless, the level of teaching and employment staff must be improved.

The university is modern with great facilities for science based subjects. The new 'superlab' is outstanding and the SHB is also fantastic

This university has some amazing facilities, particularly the library, which I have found myself using frequently because it's such a great place to get work done. Lecturers are great at communicating with the students, giving quality advice and listening to what the students want from their university experience.

The uni is nice, the instalments are really good and the city is all with uni campus. The opportunites are also really nice, we visit companies and other things about the course.

I am on an under funded course at the university. I can see other courses getting new buildings but the building we are in doesn't fit us all and we struggle for rooms as they keep being taken off us. This being said I have loved my time at Cov uni and I wouldn't change it for the world

I think this university does help in facilitating the learning of their students and wanting them to excel. However, the quality of teaching is not up to the best standards on some occasions with teachers not going into detail on topics of making it clear.

The Uni as a whole provedes a good service to all students and try's to fit the individual needs of each student. It aims to provide a top class learning environment while also maintaining a welcoming community feel. It successfully combines the need for both contact and non contact learning opportunities to ensure that time is used effectively.

Overall, university has taught me a great deal, in my personal life and in education. It's been an expensive draining time that I would happily do again.

Coventry university campus is right to town so it is very convenient to get to if you are new, there are lots of transport that can get you around Coventry so you won't have to worry about having to walk for a long time or spend a lot of money to get to university.

Having the degree is good for the cv and taught me lots of different aspects of media. However, Lectureres were never in and when they were it was for only one day a week.

The university is great it definitely caters to the students and cares about their welfare. The no hidden extras is great it means you don't have to pay a ridiculous amount of money on books because it's included in the fee. The only downside is Coventry night life isn't great.

Coventry university is a decent but has been unorganised EACH year when it comes to my timetable, I have asked multiple times for them to amend it but I should not have to encounter a problem like this. They also have a lack of parking for students and staff which is unacceptable as some students do travel from long distances too, and city parking can easily be full and is not as cheap. Two things Coventry offers which is great: ERASMUS programme - going abroad either working/studying/teaching, in my degree this was essential but it is a good experience. The other would be the student union, a lot of societies going on. The city itself though lacks more places to go to, there are only two clubs here in Coventry and can get boring.

I have been a student in the London campus for almost 3 years, studying BA international fashion marketing and management. We are the first batch of the course so i feel like over the years we have been experimented on a lot. The teachers give numerous support and the facilities of the university have been renovated into a new cosy, social space. Overall, it is a nice university but it's not the best if you are looking for a consistent 'university life.'

I love the campus. My faculty, engineering is one of the best. The sports facilities are right. I don't like the fact that the cafeterías are so expensive inside the faculties.

Location wise the campus is in an ideal spot not far from Liverpool Street. The facilities are limited however as there isn't enough space for communal areas as well as classrooms

The university creates a great atmosphere and encourages me to work at my best. Lecturers are easily contactable by email and used the moodle site to put up notes and lectures. These can be accessed at any time of day. Perhaps one of the best aspects is the 24/7 libuary meaning full flexibility accessing university resources. In terms of Society's and sports teams Coventry has a lot to offer. I am a member of two teams, weightlifting and gymnastics. Both have provided me with connections across courses and years Someone especially important when moving to a strange new city first time. The students union is good and the hub is always busy, the only thing I can fault it on is that the prices of food and mech both within the hub and in university canteens is quite exspensive. More over since changing catering company's this year they now have very little if at all vegan options. Other than that the food is good and the staff are friendly.

Course is good. Best thing is the support and focus on employability. I do biomed we have good facilities but some others are neglected. Ie. Engineering is getting a whole new building but I don't see much for English or psychology etc

Currently construction work it can be loud and disruptive, there isn't much seating available as many people commute so during the day you struggle to sit down on campus. The lessons are fun and interactive, friendly staff.

Coventry is a modern city centre campus. I love the fact you are constrained within the gates of a traditional campus. The location within the city centre is perfect and you are so close to everything you could possible need from trains and buses to supermarkets. The campus is modern and is constantly improving making it a great place.
