Timetables not greatly organised. Lecturers clear Material is academic but at times seems patronising

MMU is a great university, with lots of societies and activities going on, there’s always something going on somewhere, but as a commuter I don’t access these, timetabling on my course leaves a lot to be desired, in full time 9-6 most days but often with 3 hour breaks.

Lecturers always have time to meet you for extra help or a meeting, I never feel like I can't ask a question which is great. Campus is great, library has an abundance of books but could do with more computers, although there probably will never be enough, but a few more would definitely help.

The university is really good, so are the teachers and they're always willing to help the student with anything. In regards of international students, there isn't much help particularly regarding post-uni options.

The university offers a wide range of student support which they advertise effectively. My experience at this university so far is positive as they have great staff, fascinating courses they offer and lots of support.

The campus is compact and everything is close together. The facilities are good and modern and we have extra things like the MET card which gives you money to spend in the uni. The online library has of books online for free meaning you don't have to buy them. My course could have been organised better as there is lots of overlap between the 2 halves.

Currently staying at the Cheshire Campus, and it’s nice and small, easy location. Close to retail park for shopping and hunger needs. Staff are friendly, supportive and respectful.

The campus is very easily to navigate and there is always staff on hand to ask If you don't know where you are going. I study Geography and the tutors are all very helpful and understanding and are always available to answer emails and/or avalible to be seen in person within office hours. The overall feeling is very pleasant and clean and would recommend to anyone.

The university is a really good place. Everything from food to people to lectures is really well organised and it makes you want to spend more time at the uni. One critism of my uni is that we cannot take out the met card money for our personal use or anything else that we would need. As we all adults in the uni I would prefer to have control over those funds too since I need to learn and handle my budget. I am the best person to know what i need to buy and where i need to save. The uni does however make it easier to use our met card money by providing great facilities like the post office, coffee shops, applying for bus passes, food, stationary supplies and some groceries. I would still prefer to have it all in my bank account though. Another great thing about my uni is that it provides us with green spaces where we can relax and chill and it has a gym near by where we can work out for free! This helps student get the best of their uni life without spending too much. The uni is located on oxford road where many resturants and shops can be found, making it easier to access food during late hours of study. The uni is also very close to the tram & train station as well as many bus stops therefore it makes the travelling very easy too.

I’m an international student studying in this uni from India. I enjoy my uni time a lot and really love the place I chose and don’t regret anything. It’s got really great staff, a fabulous library, good people, good facilities and really good international support. Sports facilities of the university are satisfactory but their focus on development of it is quite impressive. Various opportunities always come up about volunteering, career markets, future job prospects, part time, etc. Accomodation recommended by the uni is pretty good as well.

The uni is welcoming and always makes you feel valued. There are loads of clubs and societies which you can join for good prices and high quality training, I'd recommend the swimming club! Tutors are great at explaining content and are always happy to help out of timetables sessions too, and they all have office hours for meetings and drop ins. The halls are expensive if you want to be in the city centre, however there are plenty to choose from and budget friendly accommodation is easy to find if you look a bit further away. There are also private flats which can be found at better value prices than the university halls.

Great Business School, decent quality of teaching, helpful career hub and large library with everything you'll need. Everything is within walking distance of each other. Grants are okay, though you're forced to use the MET card which is awful, especially giving that the food and whatnot you can use it on is way too expensive, often double what it would cost in a shop. Student housing is right nearby as well, though on the pricy side. No lectures get recorded and put online which is awful.

Great support, societies to join, sporting clubs, and facilities available with staff willing to help in any way possible. Student hub and union provide excellent guidance and support to find opportunities for students. Very structured units and assessments in the best way to help achieve potential.
