Aerospace at University of Bristol ques

Hey,

Just looking at University for Aerospace. I would love to go to University of Bristol but one question bothers me; why is the student satisfaction low? IS it bad as a department or in other ways? I mean it has a high employability etc. rate just the student satisfaction a bit low?


Thanks :smile:

Lol, It has a low student satisfaction for the 2013 year group because they ****ed up our options list but we got there in the end. It was all because they were changing the course to make it more streamlined (and better) but our year was caught out a little.

Anyway, the staff are fine, genuinely. Very approachable and the majority of lecturers are top class. Obviously there are a few I didn't like, but generally, yeah, I wouldn't say it was awful or anything?

Oh okay thanks and is it because you do Aerospace straight from the beginning Year rather than specialise later on (like in Year 2 or so ) ?

I don't think anyone was too bothered that we started specialising straight away. I can't speak for others, I can only say what happened and that is what happened. But the course is better structured now because you have to do masters level units in your 4th year (people were getting away with doing a few masters units in 3rd year and doing bachelor units in 4th) and also because you now have a research project in 3rd year meaning you can get your BEng in third year without having to specifically ask to be transferred from MEng to BEng. If the research project wasn't in third year (like for our year group), then if you ****ed up your third year (as part of an MEng course), you previously wouldn't have got a BEng but now you can so its better. We were the last year group with the old format.
