Skills such as research undertaken, management of time, and defining the complexity of an issue are strong, but students could be encouraged to improve their project presentations. All students receive a good induction programme of at least one week. For first year students on the BSc degree, this includes help with study skills, a library induction programme and a general introduction to the course, to the School and to the University. A range of assessment instruments is in use. Continuous assessment in the first and second years encourages students to be independent and stay on top of their work.
Most assessed work is commented on in detail and passed to the personal tutor.
A survey of graduates and diplomats last year indicate a high proportion of Bangor students have found good quality, permanent employment. The quality of accommodation is extremely good. Most BSc Honours degree courses are located in dedicated year rooms. These are located in one building, adjacent to the lecturers' offices. A lift has been installed to facilitate access for disabled students.
