Good courses and high competition.
Tips: The business and STEM courses are among the most popular programs here so the quality of education is high and so is demand hence, course registration can and will get intense. The city is very vibrant and cheaper to live as compared to cities like London. Very global campus and professors are very good at what they do. Part time work is limited so you'll have to keep trying for one that fits your schedule.

Tips: I was quite confused at the start but the student body is helpful and so are the professors. The university can do better in terms of administration and student services, but other than that, Manchester is a nice and liveable city. Winters are brutal, and things shut down early in the evening. The maximum you can work is 20 hours, so be very careful to maintain that.

The university is good and classes are collaborative and engaging.
Tips: Learn to make your own interpretations, as classes are not based on rote learning or mugging up from the textbooks. The professors are keen to hear your thoughts and opinions out loud, and classes are collaborative as well. Lots of fellow Indians and Indian food places are spread around the city. The city of living is less than London but high nonetheless.

Tips: Studying here has increased my exposure and growth, and Manchester is a very multicultural place so you'll meet people from all around the world. The classes are intense but you can adjust the schedule accordingly. My program is more research oriented than I had imagined. People are friendly but reserved.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Securing a job is increasingly difficult but I've observed individuals finding employment after months or even years of searching. Ensure your permit is valid and allows you to stay in the country post-graduation.

Good university where different culture meets.
Tips: The University of Manchester is a good place to experience different cultures because students from different cultures and countries come there. Some scholarships have to be applied for 7 months before the university starts and the university has professors from different countries and experiences. There are career guidance and CV preparation guides available at the University. However the UK job market is tough for international students, so finding an internship or job takes many applications and rejections. Unfortunately, there are no internships available for Master's students.
Likes (Indian Food): There are plenty of restaurants for every taste including Indian, Chinese, Italian and Middle Eastern cuisine as well as popular fast food joints like Subway, McDonald’s and Domino’s. However dining out at these establishments can get expensive and I personally find it much more cost effective to cook my meals.

Amazing university in a great city with friendly, welcoming and fun-loving locals.
Tips: The hardest part at the beginning was food. I did not know how to cook many things, but I adapted. Most people I know from India chose to live in catered halls to avoid this problem, and some knew how to cook. Living and taking care of yourself also comes as a cultural shock, you need to do your own cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, etc. Have an open mind, and you'll be fine. There are lots of part-time jobs available, but you have to put in the effort to look for those. Most jobs hire on a casual basis, which means they are flexible, and you can assign shifts based on your studies. The university also has many part-time roles available. Most pay is minimum wage on an hourly basis. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Internships): Securing an internship comes more down to personal skills rather than what university you attend. Most big companies use a holistic assessment approach to select candidates. It is important to be focused from the very start, join societies, and get some part-time work. This will surely help. The university has a brilliant careers service which you can use.

Enriching academic and cultural experience at UoM.
Tips: When you come to the university you can expect a cultural shift and a need to adapt to independent living. Engaging with your fellow students and the university as a whole will help you adjust to academic rigour and cultural diversity. The faculty at this college is highly knowledgeable, supportive and experienced. The professors are approachable and provide prompt email responses. The focus on practical applications is effective and engaging. The faculty comes from diverse backgrounds which brings a global perspective to the classroom. I am highly satisfied with my course, university and the UK's cultural richness.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The Indian food options in Manchester are decent but not always authentic. There are two types of restaurants in the locality budget friendly ones like Bundobust and Chaiwala where a meal costs 7-10 pounds per person and mid-range ones like Dishoom and Mowgli where a meal costs 15-25 pounds per person. I usually cook my own meals.

Diverse and culturally rich university with a lot of internal opportunities.
Tips: The University of Manchester is a diverse and culturally rich university with a lot of internal opportunities. The course content is good and designed for students with at least a year or two of experience in the field of study. The university is recognized globally and has a good reputation. Student diversity is above 90%. Different types of scholarships are available so students can apply for international scholarships.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The quality of teaching and the professors at this university are fabulous. The professors are very experienced in their subject of teaching. They are from different countries and have studied at top-tier universities. They also have ground-level experience in their fields. In addition, the faculty is very helpful and provides support for assignments.
Dislikes (Internships): The university does not provide internships. You have to find one on your own time outside of study hours. Also, it is difficult to manage a part-time job, your classes, assignments, and coursework because the courses are intense and you have classes three to four days a week.

Good college with amazing experience.
Tips: I was awarded a scholarship that provided a tuition discount. I applied for the scholarship online, and the process was straightforward. There were some cultural adjustments, but the large Indian population made the transition easier. I am very satisfied with the University of Manchester, the course I took, and the country itself.
Likes (Public transportation): The city is well connected by bus and trams and has multiple railway stations. Cabs are also easily available. The campus is in the centre of the city, so it is well-connected. It is also a walking distance from the city centre. Public transport is very affordable and they offer passes too.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It all depends on whether you've got a job or not, and whether the company wants to sponsor a visa or not. The chances of permanent settlement are pretty slim as of now given the global scenario and slim job market. But if given a chance, I would like to settle in the UK, barring some cities.

A break from the corporate world with preparation for the real world.
Tips: There definitely is a cultural shift here that we face, and it is much better than home so it won't be an issue settling down. We should be prepared for the hard work. The university rankings matter but not a lot, so you are mostly on your own. There is no placement department or anything like that, so we are ourselves responsible for job hunting and everything, and as in every other country, it's not that easy to get a job. 
Likes (Student Life): The college community/student union has a lot of activities planned throughout the year, which really helps us lay off some streams from all the studies. Festivals, especially big ones like Diwali/Holi, are a lot of fun as all students get together and have fun. Student clubs are fun, but I wasn't able to participate a lot given the course structure and assignments. 
Dislikes (Part time work): There are part-time options available, but the course is a little tiring, which leaves very few windows for working. Having said that, there is a lot of competition given the number of students and dependents, so it is also hard to get a part-time job. Also, because of this competition, employers, specifically restaurants, exploit the students by paying them cash in hand, which is much lower than the minimum wage. But yes, I have a few friends who got a good part-time job, but such examples are pretty low.

Lots of opportunities available for career growth and development.
Tips: Student should be clear about the course modules of their chosen programme. They should book the accommodation well in advance before coming to the city to avoid any last minutes inconveniences. They should check for various scholarships and apply on priority basis. They should be in touch with Indian Society of Manchester which organises social meetings for upcoming students.
Likes (Indian Food): Manchester offers a wide variety of cuisines, particularly South Asian cuisines. Its super convenient with regards to food as the city offer cuisines, snacks and local food items for their daily life style. Manchester has so many interesting cafes to visit which adds so much value to your student life experience.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): In the UK permanent immigration and settlement options are quite difficult due to government policies. The company hiring you as an employee needs to sponsor your visa which is an expensive and lengthy process for the company. However, if a student manages to get a job in the UK it is considered a better option as the lifestyle, career growth and future opportunities there are better than India.

Self-study is required and don't be distracted with part-time.
Tips: Do not get too caught up in doing part-time jobs and pushing education as a second priority. It is best to do some saving before moving to the UK as, although Manchester is a relatively cheaper city, you will end up spending a lot more than expected. The university also expects students to do a lot of self-study both pre and post lectures. Ask questions to the lecturers as they are often very willing to solve your queries. And always remember that you belong.
Likes (Student Life): Manchester is a vibrant city and extremely student centric thanks to 3 universities in the city. There is always plenty to do on and off campus. There is also a very wide variety of student clubs to join. Ensure that you are enrolled in the university mailing list to get updates on what's happening around campus during the week. You will never have a dull time in Manchester.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent settlement depends on companies willing to sponsor work visas. The university has no role unless for jobs in the university itself. Companies are usually hesitant as they need to justify the business decision to sponsor. Although difficult, I have had many friends who are sponsored and you will get a work permit if you persevere.

The university experience was quite good. Stressful but good.
Tips: The syllabus is quite manageable, however the exams are really very difficult and can really test your perseverance. The written exams cannot be passed just by rote learning or by studying at the last moment. Even the course works require a lot of brainstorming.
Likes (Public transportation): The university is situated on Oxford Street in Manchester which has the busiest bus route in the UK. It is also a very walkable city and you probably won't have to use transportation at all. I didn't have to spend anything to travel to university as I walked to and from my lectures.
Dislikes (Internships): The course was one year and the university did nothing to encourage participation in internships. The university could have set aside a few months dedicated to doing an internship which would have helped in securing a job for most students. Additionally, fewer written papers would have ensured more practical learning.

The best decision of my life! Hard work pays off here.
Tips: I come from India, which is why moving to the UK was a huge change. I have been to the UK several times in the past but living here is a completely different ball game. I went from really going to eat out at 1 am sometimes to having to cook my own meals 3 times a day. The food is different, the people are different, the weather is different but what remains the same is the feeling of being at home because 1.5 years into my course, Manches does indeed feel like home. Anyway, so I got a global future scholarship which I had applied to while I applied to the university. The allowance was 5000 pounds for year one and year 2 and I had to meet certain criteria to continue the scholarship. In essence, coming to the University of Manchester was the best decision of my life, and psychology, although challenging is very intriguing. UK really treats you well if you can handle the weather and trust me, you get used to it.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The school of Health Sciences is the biggest school in the university, which also makes me think is the reason why the faculty is so quick to resolve issues (2-3 working days). The professors all have PhDs and are very sweet in addition to making lectures really easy to understand and further making the lecture slides very accessible. We have seminars, lab classes and career counselling opportunities that are very interactive and helpful. My professors come from all over the world. The faculty is very diverse and the university is very inclusive.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The UK is currently under recession, so I'd say it's not the best idea to live here, plus there's always some sort of strike, again not the best thing. Lastly, getting a skilled worker visa or any sort of visa itself is difficult in the UK. However, the people here are lovely, the culture is amazing and if you love studying and a lot of socialising, UK is the place for you!

Likes (Student Life): Student life at the University is absolutely great. The classrooms are spacious and equipped with state-of-the-art technology. The libraries are huge, with an impressive collection of books (including rare editions), online resources, research tools, etc., making them a great study and research destination. In addition to studies, lots of activities are organized by different clubs and societies of the University. One can never get bored. Most importantly, the teaching staff of this University is extremely knowledgeable and very cooperative. They are always eager to help and ensure that a student is comfortable with the modules that are being delivered. I absolutely enjoy being a student of this esteemed University and would never trade this experience for anything else.
Dislikes (Indian Food): In Manchester, there are numerous places to have Indian Food. However, it is quite expensive (eg Chicken Biryani can be around 15 GBP) and in most of the places, more expensive. However, the restaurants named Indian Tiffin Room and My Lahore are absolutely great! These places will not disappoint you! Having said that, I prefer cooking at home as it save money and gives me a chance to get creative!

Multi activity university with referrals.
Tips: The Technical University of Dortmund has many study plans that are difficult to navigate. The school does have the option to study abroad, and students can work with an academic advisor to help them navigate the selection of classes. Language is also a big part of the experience, and it's important to consider how your language skills will help you study. The study pattern is completely different from our country. Referral and planned plans can help you explore better. Balancing life and studies is the most difficult part.
Likes (Part time work): There are multiple part-time jobs but they are engrossing and tiring. Diverting focus from studies to earning money during study time. Part-time jobs are difficult to find during the intake time as all people are applying at the same time. Also, it might be that you need to travel for part-time jobs a lot.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are no campus placement options. You need to struggle yourself to find a job. Also finding English-speaking jobs is more difficult. Even if the course is in English companies are not that friendly to allow you to work with it. German is a must to have a career in Germany.

Challenging yet interesting international experience.
Tips: Learning German until the B1 level is compulsory. The weather during winter can be extremely difficult. The courses in the university are very intensive, and mostly oriented for Ph.D. aspirants. I didn't have any scholarship, hence I did a couple of technical as well as non-technical part-time jobs to support my finances. The university provides free education and only charges a small administrative fee for university degrees. The quality of education is excellent, and you can learn a lot from the co-curricular activities and develop many soft skills, such as representation skills and scientific paper presentations. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the course and the university.
Dislikes (Safety): There are Neo-Nazi Demonstrations sometime during the years, and a lot going on in the city that is difficult for international students to be aware of. Some areas in Dortmund Dorstfeld are not considered to be safe to visit during quiet hours. As an international student, you have to always carry your ID and stay alert if you find someone suspicious while travelling.

Tips: Germany overall is a nice experience, but knowing German is a must. Even if the course is in English many of the locals won't communicate in English (government officials as well). This is not the case in big international cities like Munich or Berlin but for Dortmund, you need to know some basic German. As far as this course is concerned i.e. Masters in data Science, one should be prepared to face a curriculum which is more into Statistics. If you already have a knowledge of stats, this course won't be that difficult (especially mandatory stats subjects) but for the rest, it's hard.

Good college. Would highly recommend it
Tips: The tradition has been very smooth. There was a little bit of cultural shift but the people are very welcoming. I did not get a scholarship but there are plenty of opportunities to get one. I would highly recommend it.
