Northumbria University
![]()
After Durham we ploughed on further north into the land of the toon and we were greeted by the new state-of-the-art city campus east buildings. Really impressive facilities with free parking right next door, cheers.
Northumbria has a really good focus on the year-long placements and we’ve previously already met a couple of people from the University through the network of placement officers PlaceNet. Both of them were on holiday so we popped in to see more of the team and had another great meeting.
- Weather = 8 / 10 – It was again sunny during the meeting, and cloudy once we had finished!
- Grounds = 10 / 10 – Awesome new space age buildings, really good facilities!
- Beer = 10 / 10 – Read the Newcastle Uni review to find out why!
- Bird watching = 7 / 10 – Not too bad considering we’re out of term time…
- The “pot-noodle test” = 6 / 10 – no pot noodles in the business school but some good cakes in the cafe
- Northumbria University Grand Total = 41 / 50
