Marine biology bangor

My son wants to study marine biology and is interested in going to Bangor. We think the faculty is amazing but not that impressed with the rest of the uni compared to others. Any comments? Anyone been?

Hi @Sue hopper,

I think I might just have responded to another post of yours. As mentioned you can chat to some current students to discover their experiences on our website www.bangor.ac.uk/unibuddy. I'd also recommend signing up to an open day www.bangor.ac.uk/visit. We have quite a few virtual and on campus events coming up and it's a great way to see the University and chat to other members or staff and students outside the subject area. We usually have the Students Union, Accommodation, Finance, Admissions and Student Support teams on hand to help answer any questions you may have as well as current students who can share their experiences.

If there is any questions I can help with please do let me know

Hello.

I'm currently a student at Bangor studying Marine Bio.

My first year was excellent. Couldn't fault it. The staff were attentive, the facilities were fantastic, I enjoyed spending time with the sports and social clubs etc. It was generally a great place to be. However, things have gone downhill quite a bit since Covid struck. Some of the problems have been outside of the university's control, others have not. The ones in their control have left me feeling ignored and let down.

If you desire, I will elaborate further via message. I think it's fair that you get a view of the failures as well as the positives (as I presume unibuddy would ignore the failures).

Thanks,
JLY
