University Of Leeds

I carried out my Erasmus at the University of Leeds and I reckon it was the best choice I could have ever taken. The campus is simply amazing, well resourced and equipped. The uni shows a number of great facilities, well-​stocked libraries, computer clusters, gyms, shops, supermarkets and places to eat.
The standard of teaching is very high, and there are lots of activities and events for exchange students, where you can meet people coming from all over the world. In addition, loads of sport activities and huge lists of societies to join need to be mentioned.
Accomodations are pretty good, even though a bit expensive.
Definitely a greate place to live and study!

This is the University where I teach and do research so I will try not to be biased. Leeds is a large metropolitan campus with a weird mash up of architecture. It is nice for strolling and looking at buildings though. The school it self is part of the Russell Group in England and is one of the best Universities in the north of England. The student life has a great vibe and most people are friendly.

I have studied my BEng & MEng at the UoL since 2009. I love the city and love the University. I have had some great years here and some great memories. Due to the age of the university there are some very large societies and an amazing SU (Student Union).

A well established university in the heart of the country. Many PGCE graduates from the university join us for one-​to-​one tutoring work or the opportunity to work in our Maths, English or Science classes over the weekend. Our experience is that graduates from The University of Leeds leave the university with a wealth of knowledge that they are ready to convey to others.
In addition to PGCE, the university offers a vast array of courses to suite your needs. Visit them online to search for a course of interest to you.
Truly a great modern university with a wealth of history. Go forth and educate.

Good teaching, a wonderful, dedicated Student’s Union, welcoming campus, lots of computer clusters and well stocked libraries. Food can be expensive at times — best to bring your own lunch — but there is pleanty of choice if you do buy on campus. Cats — the card and gift shop, alongside Hiccup, Gear and the Bookshop cover any shopping you’d need to do in a lunch break. LOADS of sports and activities avaliable with a huge list of societies to join from Cheerleading to Caving.

I studied at Leeds Uni and found it pretty well resourced and equipped. The libraries are good and have helpful staff, with regular tours and tutorials to help new students master the skills they will need for research that is in more depth than they are used to. There are nice cafes all around campus (unfortunately: I spent three years battling my caffeine addiction and failing miserably, largely due to the yummy mocha available from every machine in every café).
Computer clusters are available in areas other than the libraries and are well signposted with regular student notification of their locations, and they are open outside regular hours also. Also the university chaplaincy is helpful and friendly.

A traditional university spread over a large campus. The uni has all the traditional course such as medicine, engineering, law etc and has high standards. Good mulicultural mix and good facilities and libraries. Easy to get to with buses outside theuniversity.

The University of Leeds is a high quality old University. The architecture alone tells the story of a successful learning place. It also has a good student atmosphere and the student union is really good. It has quite few shops, a hair dressers, bars and places to eat. There are two big libraries and they are very comprehensive and the staff are helpful. The University offers a wide range of courses and you’ll meet people from all walks of life studying everything under the sun. The facilities are very good and constantly improving. All in all it is a great place to go and study in a great city.

As a student here, you could say I was a little biased, but from what I can see the University is very well run and has a number of great facilities. The libraries are well stocked and has plenty of books on all manner of topics, and even store hundreds of DVDs and CDs too. There are many computer clusters (plus Guest PCs, for those who aren’t students), as well as SU shops and banks etc. The shops are, however, not what you’d call Student prices, but generally the food is of a good quality. Staff are helpful too, and all have consultation hours if there’s ever a problem.

A great ‘red brick’ university. I studied English Literature and French here and enjoyed it. I knew people, however, who felt somewhat alienated by their experiences here, and ended up changing courses to go elsewhere. As it’s a very large university, there is a tendency for departments to ‘lose sight’ somewhat of their students, although this might have changed since I left.
Certainly great academically, and with a fantastic Student Union with lots of services. I think the only area that lets the university down is its administration.

A good university of highest quality. Good social network and comfortable learning style and timetables for all students. Being a student at the uni, i feel its a great place to become independent and get a taste of maturity

The University of Leeds is a brilliant university. A wide range of subjects are taught, and the standard of teaching is high. The libraries are fantastic and are packed with all the books you might need for your course. There’s loads of places where you can sit and study quietly, or where you can use a computer. The university run accommodation is often very good, and well looked after.
