WiFi and connectivity issues in different parts of Craiglockhart campus & fixing dodgy projectors so them flickering doesn’t disturb lectures & seminars.

2025-10-22 14:37:58 UTC

Lots of the rooms are too hot, could thermostats be added so this is not the case? Especially corridors!

2025-10-22 14:42:05 UTC

It would be great if Napier advertised job openings to students first.

2025-10-22 17:51:32 UTC

Talks about internationalisation options for graduates (internships, graduate programmes, scholarships, etc.)

2025-10-27 19:22:14 UTC

Hi, would like to suggest introducing short-term internship opportunities (say 3 months) for students. It could be in collaboration with organisations related to our fields of study.

2025-10-27 22:59:28 UTC

Lack of Online community or groups to join from the school. Other than Togetherall Support.

2025-10-28 11:05:37 UTC

Raise height of soap dispensers so hands can get under them without scraping across counter.

2025-10-28 12:20:27 UTC

Lecturers/tutors should not claim a booked room from an ENSA club/society etc 10 minutes before their time is up.

2025-10-28 15:59:26 UTC

2025-10-28 16:02:11 UTC

Add supplies of deodorant by the menstrual health products or put air fresheners in the lecture rooms, so that the following classes don’t walk into a wave of BO.

2025-10-30 09:48:01 UTC

I have yet to see anything to do with black history month. I assume this will not be implemented this year.

2025-10-30 10:17:31 UTC

Arrange a walk-in session for anyone who wishes to talk. At least once a week on each campus.

2025-10-30 10:20:15 UTC

A portal where students can find job opportunities/openings related to their course.

2025-10-30 10:21:01 UTC

Students often experience low mood and fatigue in winter due to reduced sunlight and potential Vitamin D deficiency. The university could raise awareness and, if possible, partner with health providers to support students with guidance or access to Vitamin D supplements.

2025-10-31 16:28:36 UTC

Slateford Road - Castlelaw - only has the heating on 7am-12pm and 2pm-10pm. The heating is needed mostly during the night, not during the hours when the students are not in the flats.

After the cafeteria closes at Sighthill, there aren't many food options on campus. Often, the cafés run out of sandwiches before closing (they are also really expensive), and the vending machines only have sweets and crisps. Outside of campus are mostly fast foods (Gregg's opened, but they also run out of sandwiches around 14/15 o'clock). Maybe putting healthier options into vending machines would be good

2025-11-13 17:56:37 UTC

Appointments are not as helpful as they should for the engineering students. Usually, they give general advice and really not helpful for more detailed and technical part of the employability processes for the engineering positions. I would be nice if to have an advisor who know engineering job market as well.

2025-11-13 17:58:44 UTC

Allocating some small rooms at campus for crying privately. (Im not joking and its a serious request)

2025-11-13 18:01:07 UTC

The food at Merchiston is unbearably oily and sometimes they are inedible. Plus, its not healthy to have this much oil in our food for god's sake.

2025-11-13 18:05:47 UTC

The options available at vending machines are limited to sugary junk food. It would be nice to have a few nutritious items and small sandwiches as some students are staying at library until late night and these are helful for them to charge themselves.

2025-11-19 17:11:50 UTC

Awareness over crossing roads safely (sighthill crossings are particularly busy from tram entrance and crossing dual carriageway from buses coming from edi)

2025-11-20 01:08:19 UTC

Although there is caution signs, tap water in bathrooms is ridiculously hot in most bathrooms at sighthill

2025-11-20 11:53:10 UTC

Is there even any representation?

2025-11-20 12:01:38 UTC

study room booking system could be better. Often all rooms at Sighthill are booked, but when you look around, there's so many empty. Maybe being able to cancel a booking during the timeslot would be good, since you can't do that at the moment.

Car park situation at craiglockhart

Craiglockhart end of year ball

Why are there no kettles available for student use? This is from a CRL only perspective.

2025-11-20 14:46:13 UTC

In merchiston campus, I noticed how around the water stations the floor was flooded. People have slipped - I noticed some have tried to put up signs, but the reason for the spilling is because the water pressure is too strong.
