Bradford itself is a fairly quiet city, with an awful architecture and planning. The University of Bradford is a middle of the class University except for the Peace Studies Department and the Management Centre based degrees. It has a small library, a computer centre that simply does not work (they had their servers hacked recently, this shows how the professionals are) and a Sports Centre that is poor.

My experience was with the Civil and Environmental Engineering department. A good department with a rating of 5. The department lacks staff for the number of students (i.e. funding) it wants to recruit. It offers Civil Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering and Environmental Management and Technology. These were properly setup, by previous members of staff who have since left to Universities like Sheffield and Glasgow.

Overall, students complained regularly about the quality of the courses offered, and, in my opinion they were absolutely right. Not the best investment in your education if you ask me.
