My time at the university of Birmingham has been incredible- an upcoming raw city, with a tight student group, and ever growing pedigree and academic status- amazing.

The university of Birmingham has given me the best memories and experiences for the last 3 years! The best bits are: the pretty campus, the sporting facilities and the new library!!

Really beautiful scenic campus, with a lot of history. Hosts regular events on local campus bars and clubs. Always something going on. Careers services host regular events for undergrate and post grad students and always make an effort to advertise properly

The nightlife and the course is incredible, the living is amazing as everyone is so close and you form a tight community of friends who are ride or die. We never explore the city which is the problem but thats our fault not the unis.

I have enjoyed my time at birmingham university so far. I do believe there is something for everyone at this uni so everyone is able to get something out of it. I mostly spend time in the medical school which can do a lot more organisation

Great uni with many great lecturers who are highly accomodating! The campus itself if gorgeous and the new library built in 2017 is a real asset to the university’s academic life!

Generally a good University. A very beautiful campus considering it is in Birmingham. Birmingham itself is a great and vibrant city- a bit run down in places but can say the same for a lot of cities. I don't feel I got complete value for money in terms of teaching but overall enjoyed my time there

UOB is one of the most academically challenging institutions I have attended. The lecturers are constantly encouraging you to stretch yourself and read outside of suggested literature . As an academic I have really benefited from this, it’s also reflected in my writing.

The University of Birmingham is outstanding in its resources for learning. The campus is very large and aesthetically pleasing. The guild of students has done a lot to provide the students with social events, health products, and general services.

Pretty campus and friendky people. The best thing is probably the train station right at the campus and the central location of Birmingham for visiting other cities

The university puts a lot of attention in student employability and providing opportunitiea for its students' development. The facilities are quite good, with the exception of the lack of study spaces in the library. The Guild of students is very passionate and triea their best to cater to everyone on campus. Night life is also blossoming.

Beautiful campus in a very central location. It's really easy to get into the centre of town and to clubs on Broad Street and Digbeth. Good facilities, though a lack of student study spaces for the number of students. Whilst I was there, investment in university facilities seemed to be mismatched to what the students need. Great student Guild: lots of different societies and a great club night - fab and fresh.

University of birmingham has a great campus which is very picturesque and the buildings are amazing to go visit. The campus is really big but with all the signs it is really easy to navigate around and once you know where certain buildings are you will be able to find everything you need to.

The accomodation, student union, opportunities, campus, nightlife, everything is 10/10. I couldn't have wished to go to a better university and I've met some incredible friends.

Lots of new facilities planned/being built around campus right now such as a brad new library and sports centre which are modern, spacious and state of the art. Picturesque campus with great facilities. The student union is brilliant with lots going on all the time, tons of societies to join and great student services. Course in general was fairly unorganised however the content was very interesting. Careers services are extremely helpful and provide you with some great information.

One of the best universities in the UK that appears even in QS rankings in Top 100 in the world. Studying here offers you the great honour to meet different personalities that have plenty of merits in the research area!

Campus is beautiful but course structure and content isnt. Assignments are vague and therea no clarity as to what you really need to know to succeed in each module.

Campus library has been recently newly developed. Very good facilities but lacking in space with more demand than seats available. New green area adds to the prettiness of campus. Medicine has its own building close to the university station, which is very conveniently located. Course is very demanding in volume of knowledge required with less emphasis on quality of knowledge compared to quantity.

Beautiful campus, but priorities wrong. 27 thousand for a banner but only 2k library seats for 30k students??

Campus facilities are fantastic, especially the new library. There's work spaces in very building with varying facilities so there's somewhere to suit everyone's learning style. Library support could be better advertised with more workshops and academic support services offered.

The university has excellent facilities. Always looking on ways to improve their students experiences, by investing highly into developments on campus. Extremely well taught modules and lecturers are always happy to help.
