University of Lincoln in GeneralNewest Review: ... to build an all white building right next to a train line, doh! For all the nice and new shininess of the campus, the actual learning facilities were poor. Not enough lecutre theatres, main areas of gathering too small, seminar rooms badly lit and either freezing or boiling and as for the library... Built in an old railway warehouse the library simply didn't have enough computers and unless you're studying law or media nowhere near enough books. Core texts were rarely stocked and on the rare occasion you could get hold of one it would be out of date or the only one so hopes of not having to shell out £40 for another book were dashed. ... more |

Having attended the Uni from 2004-07 it would be fair to say the Uni was still in something of its formative years. That, however, doesn't take away from the disappointing experience I had overall. Whilst many buildings were nice and new, the designers had made some fatal errors. Notably the decision to build an all white building right next to a train line, doh! For all the nice and new shininess of the campus, the actual learning facilities were poor.

I attended Lincoln University from 2002-2005. When I first started the university had only just got established as it's own university- before then it was The University of Lincolnshire and Humberside. I felt completely at home and enjoyed my 3 years at the university and stayed on for a further year afterwards too. People look at Lincoln Universiy and compare it to other more established universities which is like comparing chalk and cheese-how can you compare something which is just getting off the ground with what's been around for years and has a lot more income? The university worked well for me as it is relatively small compared to others ... Read the complete review

It is not worth going to lincoln Uni. They dont care about there students all they want is your money. It may seem fine to start but just under the surface its not, out of date software, bad or even no teaching, no help if your having problems! Its not worth ruining your future by going to Lincoln uni!

Having been on the animation course (lincoln university) campus situated in Hull, for one year now I question bothering to carry on the further two years. I feel I have wasted a year of my life. There are so many negative aspects to the course and campus. Having worked hard academically, to achieve my Alevels and a foundation art course at college to get into university, I was expecting a somewhat challenging and exciting prospect from university. When I arrived at the hull campus, the initial freshers week was dire. We were shown a few pubs and that was it. No events were organised. The following week, lectures were to begin. It didn't take long to see how poor ... Read the complete review

I studied TV and Film Design at the Hull campus of the University of Lincoln. The art and design courses provided here are absolutely diabolical. I strongly advise against applying for a course at this campus. The Hull campus has very limited connections with the Lincoln campus which for all I know may provide a good service (they should considering the money put into the place). The university had just been given its current title when I joined. It is quite an appropriate title as the Hull campus seems to have been largely forgotten by those in charge. Many courses have been moved down to Lincoln. Buildings have been sold off and funding is very lacking. ... Read the complete review
