Confetti Institute of Creative Technologies

Quotation mark
The student voice has influenced so much of what we do here – from the curriculum, right down to the look of Confetti HQ"

School of Art & Design

Quotation mark
Art & Design has a really strong sense of community. Our philosophy is that we’re a team, together. It’s not a “them and us” arrangement – we need the help of our students to make this work."

Nottingham Law School

Quotation mark
Our students told us that they wanted more placement opportunities – both in our Legal Advice Centre, and externally. So because of that, students in Year Two now have the option to do half-year modules, where they’re with us for the first half of the year, and out on placement in the second – either at home or abroad."

School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Science

Quotation mark
There’s lots of interaction between students and staff, and a constant exchange of ideas. Those ideas could come from a course meeting, the HE Student Forum, a conversation in a corridor, or a sit-down chat in a breakout space like the Orangery – but it’s the closeness that’s key, and it really helps us engage. It’s a very open, transparent, trusting environment at Brack."

School of Science and Technology

Quotation mark
Our staff working groups are now staff-student working groups, and when it comes to assessment and feedback, sharing good practice, addressing problems and coming up with answers, our students are more involved than ever before."

School of Arts and Humanities

Quotation mark
Our core philosophy in Arts and Humanities is that we’re creating communicators. Even more than the courses our students are studying – whether that’s English, Global Studies, Modern Languages or Journalism – it’s about being a great, versatile communicator of ideas."

School of Architecture, Design and the Built Environment

Quotation mark
We always encourage our students to be honest – and brutally so! We want a conversation that not only identifies issues, but also celebrates all the great things that are happening across ADBE."

School of Social Sciences

Quotation mark
The ideas and suggestions we’ve received are invaluable. Because of that feedback, we’re now looking at the integration and experience of our international students, and how it can be improved even further – we’ve just held a bespoke international postgraduate welcome event for the first time."

Nottingham Business School

Quotation mark
We’re very strong on experiential learning. It’s what makes us so distinct as a School. That, and the sense of an ongoing dialogue, which you’ll only get when people feel they’re cared for and that they belong."
