Course recommendations
visit LOTS of them in the first two weeks. You can only get a good idea of what best suits you if actually attend the classes. Once you've chosen your courses after two weeks, you are stuck with them, so choose wisely.

Personal spending habits
Just because at home I live with my family and I don't have to spend anything for food and accomodation. The possible difference is given by the weak value of my home currency against the sterling.

“Swansea University”

Engineering, Mechanical, 2020
Overall
There are lots of varied courses, you'll most likely find your course of interest is on offer at Swansea University. I study Mechanical Engineering. The course is engaging but there is a lot of support. The lecturers are good and they offer office hours during the week for those who need clarification on certain topics that have been taught. We have math and design workshops for people that need help with mathematics based modules or design course works.
