Course recommendations
Courses in Swansea were much more lecture-based than the courses I took at my home institution. This took some adjusting. However, I found that in my American Studies and psychology courses, the professors were interesting and very well informed, so it was nice to listen to their lessons and theories. I also found it very illuminating to take their American Studies courses because they take information that I thought I knew, both inside and out, and turned it on its head by offering new perspectives and ideas that I hadn't considered.

Personal recommendation
It is a good place to study if you are independent and will make the effort to travel and learn lessons that are not taught in the classroom.

Overall
For the most part, the University is very active, with tons of societies that foster a lively student culture.

The teaching was of good quality with tough exams, I was in STEM so I can only speak to what I experienced there, but it was of good quality.
