Organisation left much to be desired, many courses had little structure, student selly area a hotspot for crime, and a waste of money on the “green heart”. However, student life fab, people super fab, sport clubs fab, Birmingham city (most of it) fab, support from lecturers fab, Fab fab. Loved it

The university offers great personal contact especially for such a large one. Staff are great and the student atmosphere is always amazing.

I love this University because the campus is very big!! Especially the green heart part where everybody can just lay down on the grass and relax when the sun comes out. Another thing I love is the library, with lots of floors all the students are able to get their own space to do their students

I couldn’t have asked to spend my 3 years of university at a better, more inclusive, more friendly and welcoming place! For one, the campus is beautiful and you’ll never tire of being there. Also for me, my course leaders and tutors have been extremely helpful, friendly and supportive and make the lectures and seminars dynamic and interesting.

Lovely campus, the new green heart is especially lovely! Great addition to the university. Lots of amazing facilities from lecture buildings, study spaces and a new sports centre. There are so many societies with lots of variety. Overall, my experience has been great and would recommend to anyone!

The campus overall is beautiful, with the green heart at it's centre with Old Joe. There is a clever mix of both red brick buildings, which adds to the university's character and also modern architecture, such as the new library building and the learning centre currently being constructed. As a 1st year student, the guild of students has been active since freshers week, with events showcasing work experience opportunities, part time jobs and many other important extra curricular activities. As a law student, the support has been great as we were allocated 3rd year mentors from freshers week, who have been supportive throughout the year, offering advice and support. Moreover the teaching staff have been fantastic in both lectures and seminars.

The campus is absolutely beautiful and far enough away from Birmingham centre to feel like a safe haven whilst being close enough to go to town for shopping/ nights out etc.

Lovely campus with plenty of life. State of the art buildings completed with some of the finish professors and doctors in their profession

An excellent university to study at with an outstanding reputation. Currently doing a Masters here and I cannot find a fault in the facilities and the beautiful grounds of lovely Edgbaston. Professors are the top in their fields, knowledgeable and helpful. Only issue I have found would be with organisation, you are not given much if any information before your course starts, you have to find things out for yourself, when and where classes are and have to learn to navigate the various and confusing online platforms to access information, emails, work for modules etc.

In my 5th year as a student here and can not fault how great this place has been, from learning new things every day, to the people I’ve met and the facilities on offer.

The University of Birmingham is a fantastic university and I'm so glad I made the choice to go here. The campus is beautiful and is a good mix of traditional style buildings with modern architecture. A train station on campus is also extremely useful and lots of places to eat, do your shopping and banking make a trip into the city centre very rarely needed. There's something for everyone which hundreds and hundreds of societies and sports clubs of varying abilities. Great student accommodation for first years and older years alike in the shape of The Vale and other premium accommodations. Overall, there is a great sense of community in this university and for those considering their options look no further than this high achieving, super fun university in the besth of the West Midlands.

The campus and the people on it are very friendly. To my surprise, all the food places on the campus have halal chicken which is a great bonus for me

The University is amazing especially the lunch facilities, gym and swimming pool. They are accessible by public transport too which makes it easier for students. Furthermore, the lecture rooms are very nice and spacious witch comfortable seats. I feel the teachers are also very supportive and we always get the support when needed. I would advice people to go to this university

Wi-Fi poor in library aha, or walking building to building. Closing all these buildings down and destroying them, building up all these new buildings that are taking much longer than promised - but not telling us where our money is going, that they don't have money to pay for printing our dissertations and binding them, but do habe money for building all these things???? Makes us angry and annoyed. We want to see fill detailed costings: how many lecturers are there, what are they paid? Outside workers, supporting staff? Then courses alliances? Running costs of all the brings and maintenance? Then all the other costs? Just have it all out so that we can see it? Overall it's a great place to study specially for courses involving medicine

The University of Birmingham is an excellent institution. The fact that it is a campus uni means that all the facilities are nearby and accessible, it is easy to get from one lecture to another etc. Moreover, the new gym complex and 3G pitch are top quality and attract large crowds for sports fixtures on a Wednesday. The staff here are generally really helpful and thoughtful, meaning that it is easy to access support, either personal or learning related.

The campus is beautiful and my course is very interesting, I also love the student union and all the events they put on!

Birmingham is a university like no other. It's diversity, academia, sports and student support is amazing. Campus hosts outside events such as a fairground during the Christmas period, getting everyone in the Christmas spirit. The student union is a great place to go and have a chill afternoon with your friends, get some food, and later dance the night away at Fab. Facilities at Birmingham are always being updated, wiht a new library, the university is taking on the modern look. My experience here has been unmatched, and I am very sad to be leaving at the end of this year.

Although the course I'm on is not where I'd like it to be ideally, the campus, facilities and social events are brilliant. Everything is done with impeccable execution and this all culminates to a great experience.
