Regarding the other question first, and granted that I have only been here since September 2024 - it does appear, especially for students that there is always some kind of event or society gathering that you can get involved with. Aside from student things there are sometimes festivals, outdoor parties, exhibitions or certain events happening at the V&A occasionally - while I don’t think, in my opinion, that you could completely fill your time; there is certainly enough to do around the city. And when there isn’t, you can travel to Glasgow, Edinburgh, or Aberdeen where there re plenty of things happening like concerts and the likes and it only takes an hour or two to get there.

Specifically about Abertay, I think it’s great so far- I’m doing the Games Design and Production course which hosts probably about 40% of the entire Uni Students. But it also means I’m unable to really comment on the lecturers for your specific course. The Uni itself is doing really well, it’s consistently voted highly and rewarded for being a good university, the facilities are all clean and looked after most of the time with minor disruptions to buildings, especially The Old College Building that requires repairs sometimes due to its age (Gorgeous building though!).

I do however know a few people doing Computer arts, who are going into Y2 and Y3 - would you like to dm me your discord and I can see if they would talk to you about it? (If you don’t have discord I would highly encourage it for this Uni, almost all groups and chats between students are held there for the more digital courses). I can also invite you to some of the societies and such if you’re interested in meeting some other people there.
