Cet Homme Charmant Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 My oldest little cherub has been offered a place there in September. She has to decide in the the fortnight whether or not to accept it, or go to uni here in Belgium. So no pressure then. If anyone on here have any experience of this uni either directly themselves or through friends or relatives, I'd really appreciate your feedback.

Is it not a tie up with Paisley Uni & colleges from Ayrshire/Galloway If it has anything to do with Paisley Uni tell her to study in Belgium. We are a MEAN diddy team!!!

A pal of mine is there doing Digital art and he is doing well , with no complaints about the place , I suppose it depends whats she is studying I suppose. As far as I am aware it has a fairly good reputation. despite the pishley thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRVMP Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 In terms of studying, it depends 100% on the course as to whether or not it's any good. As others have stated there are plenty of good courses at WoS. There are also some pretty rubbish ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe1874 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 It's Forensic Science. I think my pal does that, however he does it in the Hamilton Campus of UWS. I think he enjoys it but looking to move into other areas now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garymcc1874 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 The uni in general doesn't really get a good name because it's so near to the likes of Glasgow and Strathclyde but there are plenty of good courses and plenty of top lecturers. I've done Accounting there for 2 years (paisley campus) and in general the University is a good place to be. No idea about that specific department though. TTG JIM!!!

ThornTON Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Not my fault Paisley Uni is one of the worst in Scotland. It's not even classed as a uni, going by this list... http://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.u...le.htm?ipg=8726 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alibi Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 The UotWoS has a campus in Dumfries, at the Crichton estate which is a former asylum/mental hospital. I'm not sure what courses they offer but I get the impression they're a bit ethereal, arty courses and that sort of stuff. They certainly don't have an Engineering department and I'm pretty sure they don't do science either.

leyTON Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 was she doing something like nursing, or design or compuitery stuff, i think uws is good. but forensics isnt one of their better known courses, mrs leyton does it at glasgow, but i think strath and stirling have got fairly good reputations aswell. go with belgium We are not home and dry, we could not even be said to be home and vigorously towelling ourselves off!

vikingTON Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Caley's a ****ing clown college. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away. You can all feel happy at how 'clever' you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cet Homme Charmant Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Caley's a ****ing clown college. Don't tell me they're doing degree courses in circus performing now, whatever next. Thanks for all the helpful feedback especially Thornton, it will certainly help her make an informed decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoonTon Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 It's Forensic Science. My sister-in-law does that at UWS, it's very chemistry based apparently. Forensic science makes it sound exciting, but it's basically chemistry with a little bit extra. Check out accreditation - UWS can be a bit rubbish for that.
