MSc Applied Data Science - Batch of 2024
3.4
University of Essex has a great student life but right now the job market in the UK is very bad.
Tips: The University of Essex is a good university located a bit outside of the town centre. The campus is good and charming, and the Data Science course is good if you are looking five years ahead. However, the job market is tough, and securing a job is difficult. The UK market is flat currently, so I would not recommend anyone doing a master's degree from the UK.
Likes (Public transportation): The town is small, but the transportation system is really impressive. There are bus stops everywhere, and the buses run on time. The buses are clean and comfortable, and the drivers are courteous. You can even track your bus using the FirstBus app. The app shows you the location of your bus in real-time, so you can see exactly when it will arrive.
Dislikes (Value for money): The tuition is high, the quality of education is poor, and the job market is tough. However, the campus is good, and you have 24/7 access to libraries and computer labs. You'll enjoy university life but be prepared to put in a lot of effort in your job search.

The college is great and offers variety of courses and the campus is the best.
Tips: If you want to go to a university with a good campus, then the University of Essex is the place to go. However, some of the courses they offer are not as good as others, so choose your course based on the ranking. The university ranks well for students with a math background, but they offer a variety of courses with slightly different modules, so choose the course that is right for you. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Safety): I felt safe walking to the university, even though it was a bit of a distance from the city. The surroundings were good and secure, and I never felt unsafe. It was convenient to travel there, but it was still safe to travel.
Dislikes (Value for money): Even after getting the scholarship, the quality of education for a particular course was not that good. Some of the professors weren't as good as expected, and the college only lasted for 6 months. After that, you would have to work on your major project from home.

University of Essex is good. Part-time is less.
Tips: There are no part-time jobs, students are living in London for their part-time job. Students should come here with some prior knowledge. Don't take exams slightly. If you love nature then Essex is the best place to live in. If you really want to study then University of Essex is good, but if you want to do more things along with your studies then go somewhere near London.

Academic rigor and cultural exploration
Tips: Have no preconceived notions about the country and the people. Do not focus on making Indian friends but make friends with people from different countries and be open to enjoying cultural differences. Spend a of time in the library and stay on campus as it opens more avenues for TA opportunities.
Likes (Safety): The law and order maintenance is really great and the people are really friendly and accommodating to international students. The people don't judge and are very friendly. The student council and faculty are really helpful as well. Also, the environment is very refreshing.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Personally as an Indian, it was different for me to get used to many fast food options so would prefer cooking. Niche ingredients are hard to find as well. Buying food can be really expensive. The flavour profile of the fast food was not to my liking.

A budget ranking university for computer science.
Tips: It is a good university if you’re looking for a budget, ranking and amenities for computer science department. This university is located a bit far away from London which makes it bit hard to travel around in UK. But this gives you the advantage of living on a budget.
Likes (Student Life): This university gives good study exposure, entertainment and affordability in living as it is located a bit far away from the city. As a student, it’s your job to make sure that you make the best out of it by studying and keeping yourself updated for the assignments.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work in the university is easy to get but you get only a few hours of work. Hence, you may need to find more part time jobs to support yourself. This I guess is the same for all the universities around. This can be easily compensated by finding a job outside the campus.

Campus and faculty are great at University Of Essex
Tips: Campus and faculty are great. Might have to struggle a bit for relevant work experience so if you can ride that out financially, it’s a good experience. The city is great. Limited options when it comes to hanging out but you can always go to London which isn’t far.
Likes (Indian Food): Plenty of food options in the city and online for Indian/South Asian food. Good takeaway options as well. Might help to learn cooking though as delivery fees are a lot and not something I was used to paying. Other than that, plenty of choices for both Indian and other cuisines.
Dislikes (Part time work): It’s slightly difficult to find part time work relevant to my course (MBA) in Colchester as there’s not much work here. So, the part time options are restaurants or call centers, etc. If you get online, you might find work elsewhere around but you’ll have to spend on transportation then.

For sure, it is a brand. You have to decide what you want from the University.
Tips: I would say, please participate in all the activities that come your way. Also, the academic curriculum is a blend of remote classes and physical classes. It is also very important to do a lot of self study so that you can improve your base. There's a very big library and a study center with computers, use that as much as you can.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is good. There's a very active student union that brings in new events every now and then. Plenty of societies to join and a good campus with loads of facilities. Facilities include a gym, sports center and a huge campus with greenery. There are a couple of restaurants and takeaways too. There are also other shops for daily needs within the campus.
Dislikes (Internships): I have done a masters degree. So, we did not have enough time to do an internship. University does not help much in getting an internship. However, there are websites called careerhub and gradintel wherein even alumni can have access and look for internships and jobs, including part time jobs.

Tips: Shifting here made me more independent and responsible. There was a cultural shift, it was for the good, as it was so refreshing to interact with people from different backgrounds. I am extremely satisfied, I do miss my country sometimes but here I feel at home too.
Likes (Safety): There is always a police presence on campus, and at night the streets are well-lit. Also, there are CCTV cameras throughout the city. On my first day, I got lost but a stranger not only showed me around but also bought me a coffee.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The food is nice and affordable. However, there are not many options for international students. There are at least two Indian restaurants, one of which is very affordable. I usually cook for myself, but going out to eat occasionally is nice.

Good university for pursuing BSc in CS.
Tips: I couldn't believe that everyone at this university was super friendly and easily approachable. I was surprised to receive a 3,000 scholarship while applying to the programme for my first year, so that's a nice plus. I'm happy here, although I can't say it's one of the top choices out there. This is a really good university if you are looking for a college that is in an area with city life. You will not find it here if you're looking for something with more greenery and a rural setting. If you want to attend a university where you will be helped as much as possible, this is the place for you. Every member of the staff, faculty, and administration is extremely dedicated to helping students thrive in their studies. The level of support you get from your tutor is something else. They are there for you at any time of day, any day of the week, no matter where you are. You can contact them for any questions or concerns you have about your modules. I'm sure I won't ever regret coming to this university.
Likes (Internships): They do help us or guide us 100% for our internship. When I was trying to get my internship, it was hard for me because, as a student who doesn't have any idea about the system going around in this country, it was hard. But the tutor really helped me to get one and guided me through it.
Dislikes (Value for money): The fees are a bit higher for international students, and local students pay only half as much for the same courses. I paid 12,700 GBP for my first year before scholarship, but it's increasing every year, which makes it a bit harder for me. Then one of my mates in the programme was paying way lessu20149,000 GBP per year. That disappoint me a lot.

You get a lot of free resources as a UEL student.
Tips: You get a lot of free resources as a UEL student, which you must utilise. The university spans across 3 major campuses in East London, and the accommodation within the University is at the Docklands campus. If you are planning to enrol on a course at this university, then it will be ideal to either live on campus or live nearby so that you can best experience the student life. There are various opportunities to participate in cultural, sports, fun, creative, tech and informative activities all across the University campuses for all the students all year round. The atmosphere is amazing and all the festivals are celebrated throughout the year. The faculty is from all over the world, with different accents and teaching styles. This might create some barriers for students from the Indian subcontinent. They do try to help the students in any way they can, and the faculty has a wealth of knowledge, but there are still some communication problems, especially for students with less experience with the English language.

Strong academics, amazing student life and a diverse learning environment.
Tips: I came here after Covid, and I can see a difference between the Indian and London education systems. There was a cultural shift in my experience here, but it did positively influence my awareness, celebrations, and the impact I’m having here. Unfortunately, I didn't get any scholarships. The rejections I’ve encountered were definitely a part of the learning curve. Overall, my experience in London has been quite rewarding. I am satisfied with the course, coursework, knowledge, faculty, networking opportunities, and social events, including all the parties and gatherings.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty for my course were very accessible and approachable. The most unique and very interesting methodology that I find quite helpful was implementing whatever you study into real life scenarios right after you study with help of role play, group discussion. Diversity was very much so in play I had teachers from Belgium, France, USA and UAE.
Dislikes (Part time work): Considering the job market, you do have to hunt for the part-time and go to every extent and try every option available. You need to organize your day and work, and most of the time it works out quite well for people. The pay range is from minimum wage to 1-2 pounds or more.

The university is good for international students, but you should keep your options open.
Tips: You will definitely face hardships because of the weather, but it's really lovely. I had no scholarships but students do get it, so talk with the university, I'm sure you'll get it. The university is okay not that good, but it's in London, that's the best part. The crowd is almost all Indian, so you won't get much exposure to foreign students. But that's good and bad at the same time. The courses are really well structured but don't take the placement year. It's useless and will not help you. What matters is you come here and get a job in a good country with a quality crowd.
Likes (Student Life): The student life is absolutely amazing, but it is subjective. If you are an outgoing person who is friendly with everyone, you will enjoy it here. The campus organizes events that keep students engaged, and they also have a common house where we can play games, do arts and crafts, and use the PS. There are many communities, such as the Indian, Bangladesh, and other regional communities, that organize events on special occasions.
Dislikes (Indian Food): For someone coming here from India, the restaurants here are a big disappointment. Both, the taste and the money are not worth it. I rather prefer cooking by myself. I'm not a professional but it is what I grew up eating and those taste hold a special place in our heart.

Money is not well spent.
Tips: No matter how much the University provides academics students have to look for employability skills. Only those who are in the eyes of the staff will be able to take up roles. This will fall on the level of enthusiastic participation. Scholarship and laptop allowance are there for free. UK is best but UEL is not even in average in the performance. I got lot of opportunities but I am afraid not everyone would be getting not even 5%.
Likes (Student Life): There are many things that go to keep the students active in campus. Though sometimes everyone goes for various part times and are not able to participate but is worth. Every now and then you will get goodies and good enjoyment. The campus is very impressive.
Dislikes (Internships): Mostly the department is trying to enhance the options, but unfortunately, there is nothing to learn or the quality of the learning or encouragement is not fruitful. It is better to take any analytics course than IBM. Doesn't fill the late for opportunities or employability. Internships are not much to go for practical exposure. They say they have a lot of plans but are uncertain.

Cheerful and intellectual experience
Tips: Scholarships are only offered to students who have been consistent in their academics and have a GPA of 3 and above. Also speaking good English and being an active participant will get you a lot of opportunities and you will be able to connect with people across the city and campus.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is very well connected and many options are available to commute like buses, rental cycles, trams, etc. Some students even get bus passes issues through the local depot. You can even get assistance from the University office. The tickets are also very cheap and helpful to international students who do not have their own conveyance.
Dislikes (Value for money): It gets very difficult for international students to settle down here due to very high living costs and rents. Also, food options are not adequate and it would be advised to cook your own food and buy your own groceries. Part-time jobs are also very less here and if you are able to secure then pay would not be that high.

Easy going university. You need to improve your skills by doing practical projects
Tips: There is not much of a cultural change because you can find many people from your home country India here. I got 2500 pounds international scholarship for only the first semester and for the next 2 years, the chances of getting scholarships for Indians is nearly 0 per cent. I like the course and the modules offered at the university.
Likes (Public transportation): It is well connected to central London which is 20 minutes of train ride. The bus charges are low compared to London living standards and for buses, 24hr transportation is available in the city. The last train ride to the university is at around 11 pm in Central London.
Dislikes (Internships): We have careerzone in the University which helps students soft skills required for the jobs and guides students on how to prepare job-ready resumes. They will conduct the mock interviews as well. The internships through the university are available only to UK and EU students.

Easy-going, fun and lovable learning experience!
Tips: Life can initially be very challenging as setting down in a new country and environment can be stressful. Also, accommodation can be another challenge so be well prepared or book your accommodation in advance before moving in. Was offered 2K pounds of scholarship as an early bird. Was very satisfied with the course and curriculum.
Likes (Indian Food): Many Indian food outlets are available near our campus from northern India which is good in taste but cannot be compared to Indian standards. The food usually here is a bit on the expensive side so would not suggest eating out regularly if you are on a strict budget.
Dislikes (Student Life): Campus has very good infrastructure and facilities like library, dorms, food outlets. Vending machines are also available. Campus culture here is very different as compared to India. Student unions and societies organize many events on a daily basis which you can participate in. One can also become a member and contribute to the clubs.

Not supportive and discriminating
Tips: Choose this university only if you are doing Masters in cloud computing or sports degree. Also you should have enough funds for survival as there is a rare chance of having a part time job. You should have substantial work experience and skills so that you can secure a good job in UK, don't depend on the university, they won't help.
Likes (Public transportation): The transportation is good but I have deducted one point because of the frequent disclosure. All three campuses of the University are well connected with the city's public transport, there are two railway stations connected with the main campus and also University provides bus service across all three campuses.
Dislikes (Part time work): Honesty, talking about on campus jobs, I found it a very big scam. As what University administration advertises and the reality of the jobs. They follow discriminating policies for Asian students while making recruiting decisions, they try to suppress Asian applicants by misinforming or completely not informing them about the job opportunities. Still an Asian candidate manages to make an application they will reject it without any solid reason and prefer white and black even if they are lacking behind the Asian applicants.

Excellent University for overseas students and the best faculty.
Tips: University of East London is the best. Friendly environment and approachable faculty with an academically strong presentation by the faculty. In addition, the multicultural environment will really help an overseas student to gain in-depth knowledge about various activities related to the course you are in. However, the fee structure will make you think twice to get in enrolled. Above all, you will live in a different culture and environment here.
Likes (Quality of faculty): When it comes to teaching faculty, they are most helpful and approachable towards students. In addition, the methodologies used were excellent especially the group discussion and the challenging debate and talk to share views and ideas were mind-blowing where you will be overwhelmed.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Well I'm interested but I want to move back to my home country and share the ideas and methodologies I have learned which would be helpful to the future generation. However, if I get the chance to be here of course I will serve the youngsters to help in their education and make the best citizens of the country.

University has good infrastructure and facilities with 24/7 library available for students.
Tips: Students need to sort out their accommodation first. After completion of the course, students need to find opportunities by themselves because universities have very limited options and very high competition. In one course there are around more than 1000 students in one class.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport inside the city is very communicative which covers every single part of the city. There are different modes available like buses, tubes, taxis even connectivity to both main airports is also very easy. But transportation is a bit expensive. So I'll recommend a new person to make your budget after doing proper R&D about this city.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It is very hard to find a sponsored job for a freshly graduated person and even hard for an experienced person who does not come from IT or Health background. And for permanent immigration, it took around 5 years to get an ILR in which your PSW and your study year do not count. So it is going to depend on your study year and if you are taking PSW.

Good for higher education.
Tips: Attendance and assignments are checked very seriously. The marking is very strictly done and we have more failures during the first term, so students need to work on their assignments very seriously. Teachers are good but it is time for students to understand the way to write assignments. If you want to enjoy college, you should apply for the programs that are run in the morning.
Likes (Safety): We have classes for MA in Education during the evening. So travelling at night back home was never a challenge instead you can beat all the traffic congestions. There are not many issues with transportation in UK as the connectivity is good in London. However, it could be a challenge if there are any traffic diversions or train terminations.
Dislikes (Internships): No internships are available for MA Education. If you are looking for a job during your initial days and trying to get into a school, lectures do give you the required reference letters to start your career, which I think is good support to start your career.

Experience with quality education and diversity.
Tips: Students should familiarize themselves with the academic rules and regulations. Don't forget to bring any documentation that's required by the university and for any job-related requirements. Be prepared to live independently and make sure you can cook your own meals. Having tasty, home-style food and a peaceful place to stay can make your university experience a lot more enjoyable. And once you arrive, you can also make friends with people from many countries. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Generally, the facilities for students are amazing. In particular, the departments are excellent because they use interactive lectures, case studies, and research-lead teaching professionals. Overall, the professors are good, as faculty diversity is high, with professors of various nationalities. Additionally, these professors are approachable during office hours and friendly to all students, ensuring a good educational experience.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transport in the city is useful, but it can be costly. Traveling by bus, train, and tram is often delayed and expensive. Fares are on the high side. If you miss your bus, you could be waiting 15–20 minutes for the next one.

The university is good but it is quite difficult to find on campus part time.
Tips: The University of East London has a good curriculum for computer science, and the sports facilities are quite good. The transition was smooth, although there was a noticeable cultural shift, especially in the diverse student body. The weather is quite gloomy and cold. Overall, I am quite satisfied here with my experience.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is very convenient. The DLR train station is right outside the university, and it goes everywhere in London. There's also a bus stop right outside the university, and you can travel anywhere in London for just 1.75 pounds. The London City airport is just 3 miles from the university.
Dislikes (Part time work): It is quite difficult to find part-time jobs on campus. There were very few jobs available. Off-campus jobs were available in London, but there were a lot of applicants and the response was not very good. However, if you stay positive and keep trying, you can easily land a job.

The international students must check what I've mentioned in my review.
Tips: The students must research the college and university to which they are admitted. Many universities don't provide internships and placements. Students must know about the faculties in the department because in some colleges, faculties are not up to the mark. Having good faculty helps in studies.
Likes (Safety): The safety provided is unbelievable, especially in England. The police officers and health department are friendly and accessible 24hrs. They provide all kind of help we need. We can walk through the streets without fear at midnight.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chance of getting a permanent immigration/settlement is low. It's not impossible but chances are low to get permanent immigration and it will take time. The permanent immigration or settlement option is not possible for everyone, out of three only one person gets it.

Modern infrastructure. Convenient library and resources . Advanced attendance techniques
Tips: Students coming here should have good English, sort their finances, and have good skills with some previous knowledge of the course. Get to know all the routes that will help you commute easily.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is convenient and students can get discounts but it’s also very confusing and have to change bus every 20 minutes which I don’t like . The place is expensive and it’s not always good to live here due to survival issues and transport is cheap yet expensive.
Dislikes (Value for money): For the money people are spending, college could be better in practice and practical knowledge . It’s almost 15000 pounds which is 15 lakh or more for students but quality is not matching to the requirements or at least what I expected. Still better than Indian colleges.
