- With various buildings and campuses depending on your course, they are equipped with latest technology and systems. Labs are open 24/7
- The campus is very easily accessible, close to the city centre and student accommodations, with short bus ride/walk
- Lecturers are very welcoming and friendly, can reach out to them for feedback or doubts at any point.
Dislikes
- As the course is more practical, classes are pretty limited and only a few hours every week.
- Lecturers though knowledgeable can't help us much during group projects etc, some of them don't have practical knowledge on the softwares.
- You can mostly expect feedbacks from the lectures rather than the methods to solve a problem (depends on the area of the pipeline and the lecturer)

- There are 2 main campuses: Talbot campus (Poole) and Lansdowne campus (Town centre)
- Talbot campus has the Students' Union, Sports BU Gym, Fitness studios, Sports hall, Art exhibition display, Cafe, Libraries, Talbot medical, Kitchen and Bar, Career centre. This campus has a Faculty of Media and Communication, Science and Technology, and Undergraduate programs while the Lansdowne campus holds the Faculty of Health & Social Sciences, Business School postgraduate programs and the Westin library.
- There's many clubs and festivals but some that I've been to are the Diwali event by the Indian society club at University's Pub—Old Fire Station—and other club events by the kpop society and the animation society.
- Our Faculty also holds the yearly BFX festival for the VFX and Animation students where a bunch of masterclasses and workshops are held.

- In my first year I used uni accommodation and booked through my university. In my second year, I moved into a rented house with a bunch of friends and we found this through LettingsBU, another website from the University that helps students find houses to rent outside of uni accommodation. In third year we moved back into a different uni accommodation.
- We were paying £140 per week at the University accommodation which included all bills. While renting in my 2nd year, I paid £90 per week, but the bills had to be paid by us, and the rates were very unstable.
- I'd recommend uni accommodation, as it is a very smooth process and not much hassle, especially for international students who are new to the city. Then you can consider rented houses and preferably ones that include bills as well.
- Both uni accommodations were a bus ride away, while the rented house was a 15-min walk.

Regarding Accommodation, there are many options near the university. There are some shared and studio apartments. The cost for shared accommodation is approx 300 to 350GPB per month The cost for studio apartments is approx 350 to 450 GBP
I choose Bournemouth University because of the infrastructure and other facilities provided by them. Another reason is modules are very different compared to other universities and also professors are very friendly.
