This University is a good choice.
Tips: The university is well recognised amongst the recruiters in the UK. The programs are very well structured and the professors are very helpful. However, the Durham as a city is very dull. There is not much to do around. There are very less opportunities for part-time jobs because the city is so small. The 1st month in Durham is very difficult as the city is very cold, windy and hilly. You will have to walk a lot on inclined paths. So it is better to be mentally and physically prepared for that.
Likes (Safety): People around the city are very helpful. There are porters in every college to help students whenever needed. I have hardly faced any kind of racism from the people around me. The university has a night line for the female students to drop them to their destination late at night at a very low price of 2 pounds.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are hardly 2-3 Indian restaurants in Durham and the food is not that great. The taste doesn’t justify the high prices. Cooking on my own is so much more affordable and satisfying. The ingredients are easily available around the city. There is only one Indian grocery store though.

Overwhelming, challenging and beautiful
Tips: Students should know the essence of Durham is concerned with staying in college accommodation which offers a sense of community and belonging. Secondly, Durham is a very close-knit and quiet city and the weather is mostly rainy and cold. Thirdly, the course a student selects will get challenging eventually.

MSc Management (International Business) - Batch of 2023
4.5
Brilliant overall experience.
Tips: It was a smooth transition, and fellow students and staff were very welcoming and accepting. I didn't feel like an outsider at all. I did not avail any scholarships. I enjoyed every aspect of university, from the course, wider student experience, the city, and the people I met.
Likes (Part time work): Many part time opportunities are available on campus, such as Student Ambassador, etc as well as off campus. Many students manage to secure part time roles through alumni support even before stepping on campus, which ensures a smooth transition. Most students find that managing their academic workload alongside part time work can be quite stressful, but given that students can only work 20 hours a week, with good planning and scheduling, it's definitely manageable.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transport is good during the day and this is not an issue when living in college student halls. But buses typically stop running at around 11 pm and start by 6:15 am. So, during this window, if someone wants to get home from a student event and live off campus, the only options are taxis or friends who have cars or bicycles. Students have the option to avail the student day pass for 2.60 within Durham and nearby zones, which allows multiple trips in those zones using the same pass. The Durham Railway Station is well connected to London, Newcastle, and Edinburgh which can all be reached on direct trains making wider travel connectivity very simple and accessible. The nearest international airport is in Newcastle, around 30 minutes by taxi from central Durham.

There is a career support center to guide for opportunities.
Tips: The cultural shift that I experienced was that people mostly got put out of their homes only on weekends and everything closes by 5. I was given a scholarship of a certain amount on my tuition fees by the university for my course. I am satisfied with the university, course and country.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus was well connected to the rest of the city since it was a small town and public transportation was easily accessible. Everyone mostly preferred being on foot and exploring the city and also go to the classes on foot. For the students, public transportation is affordable.
Dislikes (Internships): There is a career support centre to guide. They help you with reviewing your CV by telling if the ATS will go through it or not and guiding which place would be best suited to apply for the same. There are a few available internships relevant to my field of study. Not in the city specifically but can be anywhere in the UK.

A rewarding academic journey with real life skills.
Tips: I just grew into myself. I learned life skills like cooking, laundry and learned to handle my expenses better. I didn't avail any scholarships. Very satisfied, good course, learned 2-3 new modules which are actually good for practical uses in my business. The country is very amazing, be it culture, people are very hospitable, peaceful and beautiful. Durham, especially, I found to be one of the safest cities in the UK.
Likes (Value for money): We had top tier faculty and a wide range of facilities at the business school. Business school itself was a state of the art facility where we had meeting rooms, presentation rooms, faculty meetings, bloomberg terminals and lecture halls. Communication with the university and faculty was really feasible and they helped with the queries with best of their ability.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I didn't apply for the job so I am unaware of the post study sponsored jobs. But from what I have heard from my fellow mates, the UK's job market is very bad at the moment so even getting a job is difficult and sponsored is difficult.

An amazing university with great facilities.
Tips: Students should know the reality of not a lot of people being able to get a job after completing the course. It is a really tough period for the students who take up huge loans and work part time there to repay the loan and end up not getting a job. Think twice before joining.

Similar to the Ivy League in the US, 24 of the best universities are part of the Russell Group in the UK. The main difference between RG universities and others comes in research, teaching, and overall standing. RG university faculty members are usually Nobel Prize winners or world-class researchers

Yes, some of the most famous moments from the first two Harry Potter films were filmed at Durham University's ancient Durham Cathedral. In particular, the Chapter House was converted into Professor McGonagall's classroom, while the cloisters were used for walking sequences.
