I had a really great term at University of Sussex. The academic level was very good and there was a good relationship between students and teaching staff. The University offers a lot of different ways to meet New People and try New things. You Can join a lot of societies both sports and academics, but also completely different things like a knitting society. The Library is amazing and there are great cafés and bars on campus. Also Brighton is one of my favourite cities in the world and I would recommend anyone to visit the city.

Hello :)
I study physics at Master level and spent one semester at the University of Sussex (Erasmus program). I really enjoyed it! The campus is beautiful and I was very happy with my accomodation (Lewes Court) and my flatmates. The modules I chose (Cosmology, General Relativity, Further Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Field Theory 1, Symmetry in Particle Physics) were interesting, I learned a lot of new things about physics. What I enjoyed most was the social life on the campus, I joined several societies (Walking and Hiking, Board Games, Cuban Salsa). I can definetly recommend the University of Sussex for a term or year abroad!

Coming to university of Sussex, I have been so stunned by the number of societies and sport available and the important presence of students' union.
I have met new friends, from all over the world, from different social activities I have been to, such as, the language Cafe that allowed me to share my cultural background.
The courses were so diverse and very alternative perspective allowing me to express myself.
Moreover, the staff were always available whenever needed.
Unforgettable journey.

Especially if you live on campus, you’ll be able to have so much fun with your flat mates and friends who also live on campus. You can join flat party, go to a bar which close to building and get food etc…
University will host massive freshman’s events through over two weeks. Even if you could not meet people in your flat, you can definitely meet so many people in freshman’s week. The events are hold both on campus and off campus. We also can join Brighton pier takeover. I also recommend people to join sports teams. I was in lacrosse team and could have amazing experience.

As soon as I entered the campus of Sussex University, I knew I will never want to leave this place. I chose to extend my stay at the University of Sussex because it is truly a place that provides everyone an opportunity to expand their knowledge on the matters that are most important to them. Regardless of whether you are interested in politics, medicine, or the arts, this university offers a diverse range of classes that will cover everyone’s interests. The community here is very open to newcomers and accepting of everyone as they are – inclusivity is a definite strength in all places of the university. I have witnessed and appreciated that at Sussex we grow as individuals through the experiences we face whilst still improving and bettering each other as group members.

My experience at university of Sussex proved to be the best three months of my life. I have learned a lot, and both professors and tutors have been so helpful. I have made friends from all over the world, friends that I will never forget.
The university is beautiful and you really feel at home there.
And then there’s the city of Brighton, which is one of the most vibrant cities I have ever visited. You can always find a new spot of the city that you had never seen before and people are so friendly

Despite the circumstances, due to the pandemic I had a lovely time at Sussex University. I found my courses very intriguing especially because we were taught how to apply knowledge practically. My tutors were very helpful, throughout the term and always had an open ear for any worries or concerns. My only regret is that it was very hard to make new contacts, as all social events were held online. Covid made that more challenging. Luckily I knew some people beforehand. However, I would love to stay a second semester at Sussex.

Overall, especially under the current conditions of a worldwide pandemic, I had a great time, thank you!
However, the housing conditions were not very good (bathroom, wifi, kitchen) . After complaining, things got better but it was very annoying.
Also even though online teaching did work quite well and most of the professors were really eager to help and support us, it was a big challenge
to only have online classes, where it was not really possible to connect with other students from your modules.
