A great university with a strong support system, an excellent curriculum, online portal and system. Fabulous city centre location, plenty of social opportunities and groups for all students.

Great support system. Excellent lecturers and curriculum. Perfect city centre location with a great union and social scene. Extensive resources on hand, easy online portal and easy communication.

I attended the university a couple of years ago before eventually attending a different university. I felt like the facilities available were really good, a lot of it was really modern. I did feel however that there wasn’t too much support from tutors etc. I didn’t feel totally integrated into the course either. The library facilities were really good, and really easy to use. The did think that the cafes though were very overpriced. I felt as though the student union needed updating

Strathclyde university is great. It provides us with a really good quality education and I’m happy to be a part of that. Strathclyde sport is really good, but doesn’t have social badminton like it used to. Strathclyde gives us a very good support with careers, clubs, education, finding accommodation etc. The university cafes are a bit on the pricey side though!

Overall the Strathclyde campus is lovely and the staff are very welcoming to new students. The facilities are well maintained and relatively modern. The library is accessible and relatively large and has a large variety of study spaces.

Overall I think that Strathclyde has a lovely campus. The main problem I have with it is that the buildings are quite spread out however they are very up to date and mostly modern. The library is very spacious and modern and there is a canteen which provides good vegetarian options.

The university campus is constantly being renovated, with a new Business School and a brand new (2019) Sports centre.

Great location with many eating places/facilities close by. Very well considered university with excellent pass marks and a good range of sports and courses to study. Experienced lecturers with passion to help students succeed. Lacks a main area for students to gather eg. Main food hall or communal area. Good library but needs more computers and quiet spaces. Not the best for helping students meet new Friends

The Uni itself is amazing, the buildings are all close together and the majority of lectures are enjoyable, however, sometimes whilst sitting at the back of the lecture hall you won't be able to hear the lecturer speak so you'd just be fast asleep and some buildings are mazes that you spend half your time navigating to find the right class. The community feel is not that great, unlike highschool where everyone knows each other and has some sort of relationship, uni is an entirely different ball game, depending on your ability to socialise you'll either have a blast or be miserable, on the plus side you get a lot of free time to study/work/go on holidays so you can structure your life around how you wish to live. The uni requires a minimum of 40% in each subject for a pass onto 2nd semester which is so very easily achievable in 1st year as long as you put in minimal effort. I'd like to also mention that it is very multicultural so that's a plus. Overall very good.

Strathclyde is a city centre campus meaning that it is very easy to get to. Furthermore, every building is within a 5 minute walk from each other. Recently, a brand new, state of the art sports centre has opened which is now directly across from our Library. The library has 5 floors so there is a lot of space however it can be difficult to get private booths at busy times of the year. The Union has 8 floors with at least 3 bars, one with a pool hall and the another with a stage where acts play during freshers week.

Facilities are being worked on and there is lots of new developments, but the parts that haven't been updated feel very dated.

Great university. Friendly lecturers and students. Some buildings can be confusing in layout. New sports facility thats really great. Library has loads of floors and really handy if you need a place to study.

The course is great. Most lecturers are quite nice. The library is pretty good, it has silent and group study areas with computers. There's a starbucks on the bottom floor of the library and a cafe. Food is a little expensive but shops are about a 15 minute walk away.

Campus is nice and spread over. Course that I do is pretty competent and challenging. The faculty try to help out whenever possible. It has been a wonderful experience for me to study at this university. The university has a large number of foreign students so you get to connect with people all over the world. The campus is pretty close to the city center and the train station so commuting was never a problem.

Campus is great ! There's a ton of international students. They should probably do strengthen the student representation channels and streamline it. The lecturers are really fantastic

I believe the campus and the facilities are great, I however feel the teaching is not so good. I think the university takes into consideration the needs for the variety of students it hosts with great wellbeing services and disabled access but I think modernisation would be helpful overall.

The Student Union doesn't have as many events on but I love the campus and the new gym and its an amazing place to be in

Facilities are good mostly clean. The careers service is not great and not well informed have often went for advice and not received anyhing other than being told to look it up online. The organisation of my course is good and well structured, testing has been adequate. Feedback is somewhat lacking.

I feel the university is well run, great staff always there to help when you need it and always very understanding when personal circumstances arise

Good location as it is a twenty minute walk max from the station to Strathclyde. Layout can be a bit confusing but get used to it. The library is good but may need to be expanded or be done up as it looks a bit old.

The campus and facilities are quite up to the standard we've come to expect from top class universities across the country, by and large inclusive of engineering labs and technology.
