Anyone studying at Newcastle Uni. WHat is it like there and is it difficult to get a PhD place there. How is student support there?

Hi I live in the north east and have just got a PhD studentship at Newcastle University. I had 2 interviews at the university and was successful with my second. So far student support seems excellent. Hope this helps in some way.

Hello Kelly,
Are you home student or overseas? Do you know any overseas students and there views on this uni. Also, if you are a science student, how do find the Lab facilities there?

Hi JJ, I'm a home student and haven't had the chance to get to know people yet. I'm a lab student and was very impressed with the facilities the labs have to offer. The ones I have seen have all the latest equipment.

Hello again Kelly,

Are you in Medical Sciences? Molecular or Neurosciences? How do find the lecturers?

Hi JJ, I'm in medical sciences and i find the lecturers extremely helpful and friendly. Have you applied to Newcastle or are you thinking of applying?

I am thinking of applying. Thanks for advice Kelly.
