Excellent campus and good student atmosphere. Fantastic study facilities from the Main library to the Learning commons. The physics course is very well structured and we are lucky to have world class facilities in the Schuster building, Alan Turing, PSI, Jodrell bank and Graphene institute. Excellent careers service events and support. A wide range of excellent sports clubs and societies.

Overloads students with work hardly any support bad organisation and highly elitist not worth the praise it gets only cares about statistics and not its students or professors

Overall I had the best 4 years at Manchester. There's so much going on and the city's so busy, you'll never run out of things to do. Manchester really focuses on the student experience. Their students gain skills in leadership, social responsibility and employability and there are a lot of opportunities for students who come from lower income backgrounds to improve social mobility

Mixed and unfair marking, not enough direction. Students often feel ignored, however completely depends on the lecturer. Had some amazing teachers and some who clearly have no idea what they're doing.

I love the structure of the academic campus vs the accomodation campus. Having Fallowfield as a big centre where everyone is together living is really nice, and having the academic buildings slightly seperate means you are more likely to stay at uni all day to work in the library and such rather than go home to nap.

Excellent uni, beautiful old buildings, and quality teaching. There are people from all over the world and from tons of different backgrounds all working towards the same goals!

Firstly I think both campuses (main and north) are nice however as a north campus student I feel I miss out on a lot of activities that are held in the SU and other main campus locations. Also the food options are not as good on North campus. However both campuses feel safe and have adequate green space. In north campus particularly I think some of the facilities like the toilets are outdated and it would be nice to see them improved. Also the computer facilities would benefit from being upgraded as there is never enough computers. I don’t really have an opinion on the students union as I am never aware of the activities and events they run as I am on north campus. I do feel they could do more to include all students. The actual building is fine and has everything you need I suppose but again I rarely visit. I have found the careers service very useful and it seems like a good use of the universities money. While I enjoy my course I do feel it could be structured better, especially for those taking the industry option, as a 6 month placement is difficult to come across and I know many people have struggled to find one.

the nightlife is brilliant, the campus is massive with lots of socities and libraries and cafes. There's literally something for everyone. The SU is decent, putting on lots of events and hosting PANGEA. However, the prices of the SU bar aren't the best around. Careers service is helpful, providing grants and bursaries to encourage students to travel for work experience.

The University campus is big. The lecture theatres are big, there is enough space for 300 people. There is always a place to study.

My course is good and has a good range of modules. The lab facilities are good. The students union could put on more events but it is good. Careers services are good and provide lots of help. The campus is nice and has good work spaces.

The main campus is huge with quite a few libraries and an entire building of study spaces filled with computers and other facilities. I enjoy my course, it’s mostly what I have expected from uni. Maybe they could do a better job on practical teaching, but overall the level is good.

great night life, good uni, real life experience and commuting. What your put through in your student experience will brutally ensure you're ready for the big bad world.

The facilities are amazing and the learning spaces are great. There's a variety of well equipped sports facilities which only really lose out on their expense, which is still relatively cheaper than external facilities.

Nice big campus, good range of clubs and societies. The anime club is fantastic, I'm on exchange for just a semester but they're really friendly.

Very good facillities, emotional support and study support. Freshers week is very informative and helps you get to know a lot of new people. The campus has various libraries for you to pick which one you work best in! An amazing place to be a student.

The university is a very warm and welcoming place for students from all around the country. I feel very comfortable here, and the staff are all lovely and very helpful with anything I need help with. I have access to multiple thing over the campus such as areas to study, computers, food stalls and just places to sit and socialise, which makes it a very comfortable place to be throughout the day and week. I am now in second year and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time so far at Manchester university, and I am really looking forward to the rest of my time at this uni. I feel it has helped my confidence grow greatly, and has made me into the person I’d always hoped I would become!

The campus is increasing its green spaces which is great. The library facilities are good however the water machines are v slow as is the cafe. My course is archaeology which is fantastic. Couldn’t recommend it more - the staff are great. The student union however has been redone and it is now hideous in colour and design. It also has a horrid smell

Brilliant amazing good quality and nice atmosphere. Teaching is good. Uni is in prime location as the city centre is not far and teaching is good.

Great campus facilities and lecturers. Loads of activities, clubs and student societies at the student union which gave me a large range of option when choosing which club that i would like to join. career service is good too as i am given great support!
