The campus isn't massive so it's easy to walk throughout it, and it's location is right by the cathedral and the town centre for ease of access. The students union is very handy but I've never been able to access an NUS representative for a problem in my course. Their is a central careers service and a specialised faculty careers service which send job and placement information to you regularly. The faculty I was in had a terrible turn around for coursework, all the time and very little support around exam time or retake period meaning you are left virtually by yourself.

Great university, nightlife is good, lecturers are great and helpful, there are lots of transport links to the university which helps. The whole town is very accommodating of students, plenty of student offers etc. Would recommend!

Campus is close to the centre. The facilities, your course, the student union, careers services and the organisation are OK.

Great university, so many opportunities and career prospects as careers advisors help students a lot. Course of Biomedical Science is generally well

Coventry University is a good and prestigious uni for an adult nursing degree. It has a good program for all health care related degrees, and it recognised for its dedication to helping students through their course

The university campus is a vibrant place with some old looking buildings but an easy to get to geographic, equiped with a student gym and god social area called the hub which is a great place to get information about career and other services. I have found Coventry university to be a good learning environment

Cov uni is a decent uni. I feel like my expectation were raised too high though. I study MA design management and I must say half the time I feel like my lecturer doesn’t exactly know what he’s doing.

The overall uni experience is good and the uni has many good facilities, including a well built library with lots of resources.

A very open university, you can always find your place and never feel left out. Although it’s a city campus, everywhere is easily accessible and people are willing to help. I feel the organisation of the university however needs to be worked on, as things often get lost in translation.

Although the lecturers are amazing, if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have got through, the general student experience was poor. The nightlife is awful, the people aren't great and the level of teaching is okay. Although support is good, as a uni, room for improvement

The campus might not be the most beautiful, but the facilities are very good. The library is huge with loads of seating (this is a big deal!) and the gym is really good.

Coventry university is a good university, which provides a lot of opportunities to learn and excel. A stand-out attribute of the university is the opportunities they offer to travel abroad for a discounted price. Where there are many destinations to choose from, they also provide great hands on experience where news skills can be learnt for free. As an engineering student the university has aided me with learning new software for free which are relevant to industry, helping me with my career as well as Persue hobbies. They have also planned trips abroad for free for the course I am studying. The student union could be better and more helpful, at the moment the union does not do much in terms of organising events of the course of the year. The summer ball planned by the university is not great value for money and the timing of the event is poor, it could have been organsied better. Organisation is a key area of improvement.

Coventry university campus is marvelous, with a building for each faculty. Learning and sports facilities are brilliant with wide support provided for students in everything they go through. Student union was not actually effective, in my point of view. The university makes your career path easier by providing emloyment opportunities as well as supporting students and telling them tips to get the right job for them. Overall the experience is a fruitful one, with a motivating culture surrounding us.

Coventry university is very interesting being mostly filled with international students. The campus is massive with multiple buildings in close promixity to each other. It is modern, clean and attractive. My course which is psychology and criminology is very interesting with lectures throwing theories in your face and workshops encouraging polite but always heated discussions. The psychology department is helpful and provide support if asked. The student union is exciting, offering opportunities for those who are confident enough to throw themselves in to new experiences. In order to get the best from Coventry university you need to be willing to give your all, push yourself out of your comfort zones and live in the moment.

It’s a city campus but building aren’t too far from eachother and it’s refreshing to get the walk between lectures and tutorials etc. Engineering facilities are very good including the library. My course is really engaging and interesting, aerospace technology, it really drives you to do your best.

It’s a good university, a lot of social life as well as a huge supporting staff. Everything is in close proximity so you’re no more than five minutes from your next lecture. Lecturers actually get to know you on a personal basis.

Coventry campus is very huge it is one that takes up all of Coventry which in my opinion is the best because this whole city is just university students Being a biological science student it is amazing to be at a university with the best lab ever with such a wide range of machinery The career services is amazing and the way in which they provide provide one on one services to focus on students individually

The uni itself has a thing called no hidden extra costs so all course related material is given as part of our tuition fees. There is great diversity and there are many opportunities to talk to people in industry

The city itself is quite small. The Science and health building is brand new so looks amazing and has great facilities, aswell as the engineering building. Could have better focus on student life.

I loved my Media Production course at Coventry University, I often left the lecture Hall feeling inspired and enthusiastic about my work and current projects, I feel it led very nicely from first year into second and then third and that I learned enough in each year to really be able to make a great final major project. I would say that my course, although great when it came to creativity and learning did not prepare me very well for my future outside of the university and did not support me in finding a job in my related field, which is always a struggle for media related work.
