Campus is very modern and clean with student support on hand. My course is very dynamic and it allows me to learn new skills and techniques. So far I have had visits from visiting lectures and have had a fun time gain new experiences.

Campus - Luton campus is central and modern for new uni students. Although majority of healthcare professionals will be placed on hospital accommodation which is poor compared. Facilities - University of Bedfordshire is modern and has great sports facilities however again being a healthcare student not living in Luton there are no facilities that are discounted or in distance for me to use,. Course - Midwifery is a great course and the lectureres are extremely supportive with all course related and personal issues

The campus environment is student friendly, the lecturers are hardworking and they make learning fun and understandable while the library is the height of it and always available and ready for use at all hours.

The course has good facilities but it is sometimes hard to find them or access them. The campus is also quite tiny so there isn't much of a student Hub or nightlife.

The campus is freindly and welcoming. There are plenty of facilities on campus and the courses are extremely interesting. The careers office is extremely helpful and help with any interview preparation.

The campus is beautiful. Most of the lecture theatres are great but some are slightly old, which mean they're either a bit small or the heating is strange. The English course is excellent. You get so much choice every year and everyone is so passionate about their subject. There is a lack of organisation sometimes, but I think this is true of a lot of universities. We have access to a lot of societies from our student union and we have a great careers service too.

I am based on the Luton campus which is very quite so is much better if you wish to just get on with your studies and want to succeed, I love my course and my tutors are very helpful and are always trying to better us. The library is open 24/7 which I think is amazing and is right by the main campus. My overall experience at the University of Bedfordshire has been pleasant over these past two years.

It’s a great university, the staff are aiming to help you do well and help you achieve, the facilities for the courses are well kept and up to date and allowing the best education. It’s really under rated and deserves to be more well known. The student union do a good job, however there isn’t much space for any societies that do form to be able to have meetings and events. The student bar/ cafe however has very friendly staff and atmosphere and is a great place to sit and do whatever you want. The library facilities are better than at any university I have visited!

My first year so far has been productive and I have learnt many transferable skills to my profession. I have made some new friends and have realised that I have more potential than I first thought I did. The uni offers Go Global as a way of enhancing your CV and able to meet other students from different backgrounds which helps communication. The course tailors to the Health and Social care sector and gives us real life situations that we could face when working. I like the fact that the lecturers have experienced working in health and social care themselves and can relate to what they are talking about. Least favourite thing is the lack of communication when it comes to lecturers not turning up to sessions such as PAL. Facilities They are extremely good at providing students with adequate areas to study, cafes, canteens, a gym, and pray area. Student support The tutors are very supportive, answer questions when needed and able to breakdown assignments that can sound complicated at first. City City life is good, plenty to do and to see. Relatively good night life, if not within Bedford within the surrounding towns such as Milton Keynes Sports teams lots of sports teams and societies available, all very welcoming. Could do with slightly more support at the start of the year from the Student Union, in regards to setting up and ways in which to get people involved and promoting the team Student support The support offered by the university is amazing, they have so many different ways of helping out. All the staff are informed of the support available for students, and academic staff give their time to support both academically and on a personal level to their best abilities. Feedback however can be incomplete or insufficient, and there are some lecturers who when giving feedback give inconsistent advice to different students Union The union is very good cheap drinks and lots of atmosphere peoples sesh their hard

Great little university where it feels like you know everyone on campus. It has good library facilities and good social places where you can hang out during the day. Accommodation can be a little pricey, but it is nice for university accommodation. Night life isn’t too bad, better when you’re in a sports team as you can get discounted access to the clubs and have great fun with your team for reasonable prices. Would recommend this uni!

Nice modern campus close to everything. Needs work on out of hours access. Really good lecturers to help you engage with the topics being discussed.

The university has a library with a wide range of books which I found very useful through the duration of my animal management foundation degree course. The course which I'm doing is based at shuttleworth however it is run through UoB.

The Bedford campus has a nice layout, with 3 cafes, lots of social space, nice classrooms in the gateway building They do often have issues with the heating for about a month I was struggling to go in to lectures because of knowing how cold the room would be it would make it very difficult to concentrate on the topic rather than how cold we all were. I find that we don’t know our exam dates until quite late on especially compared to other universities. I was contacted before Christmas by my “tutor” saying we would meet after Christmas break, found out in February after not hearing from her again that she quit but I wasn’t told or appointed a tutor a i mean always unclear who to contact which a query which is why I turn to the course coordinator who is always very helpful

I have learnt a lot from the university but I had one issue with one teacher who seems to no enjoy teaching. Other than that I enjoyed everything else.

One of the good university in the UK. All facilities and amenities are available near the university. Great career and employment opportunities. The university has people from all corner of the world. Many internships are available in the UK and Europe. My whole experience in this university has been worth.

the campus has been improved greatly in my three years there, including a new library with helpful resources. social studies is a wel run course with a helpful staff faculty. not had much contact with the student union however they did assist me to their best ability during a second year assessment investigation. the uni offers many different clubs, societies and support groups, the organisation of these however is questionable. overall the quality of your experience will be based on your course and attitude. dont expect the traditional uni experience.

The university is huge with many campus spread across Bedfordshire county. The teaching is one the best and the staff.were very helpful. The university is well equipped with all the infrastructure well developed. My course mates were one of the best. Definitely worth studying Herr for the cheap prices. Many scholarship and Bursaries are available.

As a part time student, the course is ran very well and is organised in a good manner. The tutors are very helpful and are always willing to help. However, I feel that some sessions are ‘pointless’ where things are gone over too many times.

Bedford is an extremely relaxed Uni. The new gateway building, gym, sports hall and Astro are major attractions and great facilities. The lectures are at times interesting however I regard few of them outstanding. The student union are fully suppprtive if what you do, they are open to voices and opinions It is a friendly environment and beaming with support. If you are doing a postgrad the financial support vastly deteriorates
