Good university as a whole, lectures are well ran and lecturers and module leaders are always very supportive and informative of help that is available. Facilities of the university are of good standard, in relation to the campus itself and lecture theatres. Library is of a very good standard and a great place to get work done.

The University of Salford has been a great University to complete my BSc Diagnostic Radiography degree. I feel as though the support I have recieved has helped me in times of difficulty. This is especially evident when exam period arrives. The facilities the University provides have been very useful and greatly helpful. However, the organisation of blackboard could be improved.

The university of Salford is a great university in a great location. Close enough to city centre and cheap in taxi’s to get to town for a night in in Manchester. My course was great, however some tutors could get back on email quicker. A lot is always going on, a lot of student housing, the student union and peel Park is a great halls fo start off with. There is a sports centre on campus, with access to the gym and swimming pool for good student prices. The train station is right next to peel park, and there is a shopping centre and buses everywhere. And a 30 minutes walk into town. The uni itself has nice facilities and a nice atmosphere. I am so happy I chose to do my course here.

Overal a not bad experience.University is held back by lack of engagement in the curiculum and really shallow preparation for career.Pros would include the employability team and the different engagement activities outside of curiculum.

The campus that I am based at at the University of Salford is aesthetically pleasing, with a variation of places to eat, study, and a very large accommodating library. The student union has a very active presence, and does seem to be very involved with university life. I study English Literature, and have found that the course content itself is very rich and interesting, but can sometimes not be taught as well as it needs to be. However, I am learning a lot on this course, despite receiving little help off my lecturers.

The University of Salford School of Science, Computing and Engineering provides great practical opportunities to learn how to apply the knowledge obtained in classes. Students union organizes many talks and events to help you develop yourself.

I loved some of my tutors, they were really approachable, supportive and helpful. The laboratories at the University had been developed recently and the technology in the labs is just fantastic. With screens in all sides of the room to see exactly what the lecturer is doing when demonstrating the experiment. More awareness should of been done in forms of letters as to which modules were compulsory to attend to. If one did not attend then they should of at least called up or emailed ? But none of this was done which resulted in me really doing badly in my statistics during my second year unfortunately.

Nice friendly uni, close to a small shopping centre where you can get cheap food, free bus to and from uni is very handy, very close to Manchester but not too close that you feel like you live in a city. Teachers are friendly and helpful and try their hardest to help

Everyone went on strike, which negatively affected my education. I paid a lot of money to come here and did not even get the chance to actually have time with my professors.

There were many strikes this semester so I missed out on a ton of classes. However, the campus is very innovative and has very beautiful and technology friendly places for students to work. Media City in particular is a awesome space for students to learn.

Good facilities people are great depending on where you stay. John lester is good, peel park is bad. Unions a bit crap but theres pubs near by to get drunk at a low cost at.

Our campus facilities at MediaCityUK are amazing. All industry standard equitment, meaning you can go from uni into a job at bbc or itv and not be fazed by the equitment as it is similar to what you have been using over the course of the degree.

The overall experience of Salford is great. The student union always have theme nights on and the university is filled with different societies suited to different people. The university are very supportive and have patience with difficulties.

The modern campus is great and got what I expected. It's important to give all aspects Of The university resources and facilities a chance. The student support services are the best I've seen anywhere in the country and I feel that this university truly wants the best for it's students.

I really enjoy my course and the lecturers are very knowledgeable about the subject as you can tell they have a passion for what they teach. However, over my time I do find the university to be very unorganised when it come to my timetable making it difficult sometimes to work at the same time.

Studying law at Salford and enjoying it. However the module could be organised better. E.g the assignments are 2500 and are due the day after another. Which is hard to do, this year there has been so many strikes which results in students loosing out on their education

Modern, top of the range campus. Many opportunities and facilities to improve and help you succeed. You can approach any member of staff for assistance where they can help you or direct you to the correct area on the campus. Top of the range electronics which are accessible depending on your course, you can book out equipment for University project or for independent activities.

My campus has a great location just outside Manchester City centre approximately a 15 minute walk, with a short free bus journey. The free bus offered by the university also takes you to media city where some of the lecture course and workshops take place. The on site accommodation is reasonably priced and only a few years old with great space for communal living. Most facilities are new and are being updated all the time to ensure better learning environments with great teaching staff.

Really useful facilities but the prices of the canteens are 3x more than normal prices. It’s really expensive like a small water bottle will cost for £1,50 depending on the time of the year.
