What students say about Coventry University
Likes
- A good place for engineering degrees, with all kinds of resources available in the library, and workshops are provided based on your requirements.
- My placement was at the university lab itself, which was more like a project; hence, there was no stipend.
- There are companies such as Sainsburys, Ikea, BBC, The Theatre of Rome, Havelock, Ford, Heat Magazine, Tata Technologies, Atlas Copco, and many more where university graduates have been placed.
- The library was one of the best things about this university, and the sports facilities and gym were amazing.
- Each student is provided with his or her own bedroom and washroom, and the kitchen needs to be shared with the flatmates on the same floor.
- My course was under the Faculty of Business and Law, which is one of the best faculties at the University.
- This university and its location were more inclined towards mechanical engineering in terms of almost everything.
Dislike
- Foreign students had a very tough time with placements as companies were not willing to sponsor working visas, and the competition was fierce

- A pretty huge Library, a decent gym and apartment from that all was good and okay we had lots of career fairs and other activities. null
The reason why I chose this University was that I was looking for various universities in UK and it was one of the good university among other universities for business management course and also had a good reputation and about the location, the university is situated right in the middle of the city so it's pretty easy to commute and there are plenty of career opportunities but it depends on how much you work hard for your goals and how well you perform in your studies apart from that it's all about picking up the small things from your surrounding and making it a learning curve.

Good for the field I have picked, not bad for computer science. The location is nice, not too crowded, but lively. Not many extracurriculars - but there is a sports centre. Teaching is okay, exams and assignments are relatively easy.

Dislikes:
- High tuition Fee and living expenses, Limited courses available, Large class sizes, Weather is also very unpredictable and harsh sometimes, Library hours are restrictive which is disappointing .
My program was not just theoretical but had an extensive practical approach. They had Career Counseling sessions and other supportive services which really helped in finding a right career choice and to be able to find a place in the job market. Course curriculum was updated and includes extensive research opportunities which helped us to stay updated with recent developments in the field of computer science. Overall, my experience at Coventry University has been highly positive.

I chose the university for its expertise in the Engineering domain. My experience at the university was great. The educational system here is very different from that of India. There is a lot more importance given to self-study, and as you are required to write a research paper as an assignment on the topics that require a lot of reading, published articles give you more current information on that particular topic as you are self-learning it.
The university was reputable, and the fees were considerably affordable than rest of them. Yes, I had one round of interview with one of the university team member, who asked me on why I wanted to join this specific university and this particular course. Also they asked me question regarding my hobbies and interests. It is quite a good university but the teaching good be improved. Considering the amount of fees being paid, it is not up to mark.

- I choose Coventry University as it provided me with 1.5 year master course which includes 6 months of placement in the form of my dissertation project work in my university lab itself which gave me more lab skills as well as U.K lab experience which employers prefer when compared to other 1 year master students. null
- Coventry university is situated in the midlands area which makes commuting to main cities of U.K easier. It also has a substantial south Asian disapora making it fell homely. When it comes to my course it offers a 6 months professional experience for biotechnology master students. null
Dislikes:
- It has a horrible student support team that doesn't respond on time. The university also doesn't provide a letter stating the vacation period without which students are unable to apply for full time position during their break time. null
Studying at Coventry University has a clear demarcation between on campus life and off campus life due to lack of University boundaries. Studying there feels more like for only attending classes with not much social events. Hence those whose focus is studies will enjoy studying at Coventry university.

Also there are many warehouses around Coventry , so you get part time jobs easily but its a lot of labour work and as a student it is physically challenging sometimes. null
Coventry university experience was really good, as a student you get to be out of your comfort zone.

This university has proven to support international students for a long back. It supports students by giving them some time in case of any inconvenience though the deadline is crossed if requested through email. The university has international student ambassadors for each country to help understand how the university works and how it tackles international students. Provides maximum support through the international student union and Coventry university student union. The union supports students in case of emergency with financial stuff. It helps and provides loans to students to support their education. Accommodation is provided by the university in case students do not have any friends or relatives if they are arriving in the UK for the first time.
On the first Choice basis, the UK has a better foundation in resources for courses than its home country, and compared to other countries abroad, the tuition here was much better than in any other country.
