I am looking at doing some papers at Southampton as part of an exchange but I need the papers I do to have lab reports. I couldn't find anything on the website about this. Is anyone able to tell me if BIOL2051 (Principals of Neuroscience) has lab reports or not?

Thank you!!!

Bassist looking for fellow uni students to jam metal music in southampton (preferably stoner/doom

 I am a bassist and first year uni of southampton student looking to find fellow students to jam metal with. I have been playing bass for just over a year i have jammed with freinds in the past but nothing serious. I am looking for people with similar music taste to jam with musical ability is not a problem -> you do not have to be confident in your playing i am just looking for people to play music with for fun (will be happy to jam with literal beginners !) I would prefer to play music in the stoner/doom/sludge style bands such as electric wizard,candlemass,sleep etc. I am also a fan of thrash and classic metal like black sabbath. Some of my favourite bands in no order or particular genre are: Electric Wizard, Candlemass, Sleep, Acid bath, Black Sabbath, Megadeth, Metallica, Sepultura, Crowbar, Eyehategod and Alice In Chains.

Southampton Accomodation Glen Eyre

I'm going to Southampton for 1 semester and I was looking at the accomodations on their website. However, I can’t seem to understand if the enhanced PLUS rooms in Glen Eyre all have a small double bed ? Because it seems that everyone got a small double bed but I'm not sure if it’s not just if you are lucky or not...

Thank you very much for your help

What is physics like?

I'm thinking of applying here to do physics. Anyone who does it what do you think of the course structure and teachers.

Also more generally what is the city/uni like, anything you particually like or dislike?

Thank you!

Insights into the University for chemistry?

I never hear much about Southampton Uni, how is it ranked?

Only feedback ive gotten is that its a dull city but surely it can't be that bad?

Its on my potential list of unis to apply to!

Should I admit that I used AI to assist me to write my personel statement?

I applied to the Sotonuni but I used ai, and now i feel conflicted whether or not to confess. I used ai to write my personel statement because english is my second language and i do not feel comfortable with my english skills to write my statement. If I admit my mistake will this automaticaly mark my application as unsuccesful or will they allow me to fix my mistake?

acoustics with music

Hello! I'm extremely interested in the Acoustics with music course you offer at this university - but i have a question

Does this course still run?

Its missing any entry requirement except the typical offer and missing module descriptions on the website. The website also says "This course is closed for applicants", and also says "This course will be open for entry in September 2023, however we are not accepting applications starting in September 2022."

My father thinks that the second quote means it is running, or at least was after a closure for one year, but i find it ambiguous myself.

On top of this, some other sites such as YouApply say the course is running and the next intake is 27th january 2025, but i cannot find it on UCAS

Luckily im not at the stage of my life where i must apply to universities yet as i'm only in year 11, but knowing whether the course is running or not could help influence my alevel choices so it would be extremely helpful to know. I believe i'd be going to university the year starting september 2027.

I do really hope this course is running as it seems perfect as im a musician but also love physics and maths. Could you clarify for me please?

Thanks in advance for any reply!

Looking for answers

Anyone studying MSc in data science here? I would like to know the quality of the program as my friend is struggling and wishes to change schools from Exeter. He’s struggling not because he’s bad at studies (he’s from CS) but he believes that it is not worth the costs since the lecturers are just reading off from the slides.

Bursary information?

Does anyone know when I will be contacted about a bursary? I should be eligible for one but I know universities are typically reluctant to give them out. If anyone is in 2nd/3rd year and has received it i’d appreciate some info about the timeline and when I will be contacted?
