I have just finished at the university of Portsmouth doing a Business Information Systems course and I did say that I would do a full review of the course.

I am a student at the University of Portsmouth. I am studying here for one year: doing an art Foundation course in the School of Art, Design and Media. Although I am not a degree student I feel my opinion on the course and facilities is valid. Recently, the school has been having problems because the University has cut funding drastically.
