Newcastle University provides great student life and friendly campus.
Tips: I got a scholarship directly from the university, which was a huge help. The professors are very nice and teach very well. They are willing to help anybody you just need to reach out to them. The university organizes many activities for students, which is great. It includes sports and activities, seminars, etc. Try to participate in them and build connections. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course, college and the country.

MSc Advanced Computer Science - Batch of 2025

Newcastle University has solid engineering programs.
Tips: Before you join this college, do your research on the university and the city where you'll be studying. Find out about the job opportunities, and connect with the college alumni on LinkedIn. Start applying for part-time and full-time graduate or postgraduate roles as soon as possible.
Likes (Public transportation): There is good connectivity between buses and metro throughout the city and the fares are reasonable. If you want to get somewhere faster, you can always hail a cab. If you live close to the university or city centre, you can easily walk to many places. I have never faced any issues with travelling so far.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are hard to come by because there are a lot of students from Newcastle University and Northumbria University applying for the same jobs. To get a job, you need to be smart and have good interpersonal skills. It is also a good idea to start applying for jobs as soon as you settle into your accommodation.

The university is a great value for money with such talented and knowledgeable faculty.
Tips: I came from India, and I found the cultural differences to be quite drastic. The education system here is very different from India. However, I did receive the standard 2000 scholarship from Newcastle University. I found the people here to be very chill and friendly. I would advise new students to not be afraid to ask questions, as there are always people willing to help. The professors are extremely friendly and the faculty is very good. They will motivate you to succeed in your studies.
Likes (Value for money): The professors for my modules are very good. They are friendly and provide all the necessary information if a student has doubts. The fee for my course is definitely justified because the environment of study that this university provides for us is outstanding. Our lectures are mostly in Urban Sciences, Fredrick Douglass & Herschel Building. Urban Sciences Building is 10/10, the Fredrick Douglass Building is 8/10, and the Herschel Building is 7/10. Other than that, the university ambience is quite peaceful, and the staff is very welcoming.
Dislikes (Indian Food): As a student, you don't have much time to cook for yourself. Eating outside will cost you. Because of this, you will be more inclined towards eating good food less frequently. From my experience, I still haven't found any good and affordable place to get Indian food. I have tried 'Dhabe Wale's Aloo Paratha but it wasn't that good. It cost me around 6 pounds with Lassi.

I am in love with the city and the education system they are providing. The faculty are very knowledgeable and they always try to make us understand the concept and help us with our course work if we have any difficulties. In the end New Castle University is the best for its reputation and also friendly. Overall, I am satisfied with my course, university and the country.

Newcastle University has a good faculty and strong academics.
Tips: The food options are not very appetizing. Also, the cultural shift from living at home to living on campus can be difficult. However, the university provides support through the accommodation and induction programs. Also, the vice-chancellor international scholarship offers financial assistance of 4000 pounds. The faculty are very accessible and approachable. They foster a supportive learning environment through open communication. The teaching faculty is diverse. I am quite satisfied with the course at Newcastle University.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transportation is cheaper compared to other cities, and the campus is well connected to the city via the Tyne and Wear metro. Haymarket station is nearby and offers frequent services to the suburbs and the airport.

An enriching and transformative academic experience.
Tips: Before joining this college, students should understand the course structure, cost of living, campus life and local weather. Transitioning here involved adjusting to a research-oriented academic system, multicultural social norms, and independent living, which was enriching but required effort. I availed a merit-based scholarship, which eased financial pressure. Overall, I'm highly satisfied with the university's supportive faculty, relevant coursework, and the country's safe, welcoming environment, making this a transformative experience.
Likes (Safety): The campus and surrounding areas feel secure, with robust measures in place. The university provides a safe environment for students, and the city overall has a welcoming atmosphere for international students, which significantly enhances the sense of safety. Facilities provided are Emergency call stations, safe transport services, counselling and support services and much more. The city has a friendly local community that makes international students feel welcome. People are generally approachable and helpful.
Dislikes (Part time work): While part-time work opportunities are available, they can be competitive and vary in accessibility depending on the campus and location. The work experience gained is valuable, but balancing it with academics can sometimes be challenging. On-campus jobs are relatively common and include roles such as library assistants, research assistants etc. However, the availability of these roles depends on the size and resources.

Msc Supply chain and Logistics course review in Newcastle University
Tips: Students should first know that it is going to be a huge cultural shift in terms of education and living. They have different grading styles and a lot of group projects. Even the exams are grade different than in India. Keywords and on-point are preferable rather than filling up the page. Scholarships are hard to get but very educative. They can help you financially as well if you can secure one. Scholarships are usually fewer in number so highly competitive but many international students get that if they can submit compelling essay. Overall experience was average because the UK market is competitive in terms of securing full-time jobs in your area. College does have many fair but it is tough for Masters courses when you don't have enough experience.
Likes (Public transportation): Newcastle has very good connectivity in terms of bus and metro. There would be a lot of options available all the time specifically towards the University which is right in the city centre. So for each ride, it costs you 2 pounds on the bus. But there are several cheaper ticket options available where you can take a monthly or weekly bus pass for that particular zone and can travel an infinite number of times. The secret part that not many know is that the university provides a bus pass to students for free travel. You just have to mail them and they will send you a coupon code to avail of that. It is valid throughout your university time.
Dislikes (Part time work): In the beginning, we went to many job fairs that represented us with part-time jobs in university but those were extremely competitive and applications would be in 1000's against very few openings. Part-time jobs are manageable in terms you being flexible and willing to work after classes and ready to work on weekends. Weekends are a good option to manage both expenses and your studies. The average payout right now is 11.44 GBP per hour which is quite decent for expenses every month if you can work the full 20 hours per week.

The university provides very less internship and job opportunities.
Tips: Job opportunities in this city after completing your Master's or Bachelor's from the university are fewer and you might need to consider another city for better job roles, especially in Management and consulting. Your college tenure would be eventful, hectic and engaging, hence you would never notice the Emptiness of the City. In fact, I would also say that most UK nationals consider this City to be their Post-Retirement PLAN since it's muted and almost dead, especially in the winter. So you might have to rethink if you're looking for a flashy, happening or crowded city. I never knew about the Winter Depression before moving to Newcastle but it is for real. It gets Chillier up to -12 degrees Celsius, super windy and lonely during winters, which feels like never-ending. At last, it is a research based University. It is decent for studying Masters, so I would recommend it for Post-graduation, & also Newcastle as a City can be considered for a year or two courses. Still, Bachelors from here would be worthless and a complete waste of time.
Likes (Safety): I felt safe in Newcastle upon Tyne. The local people were nice and sweet. The city is not heavily populated, which contributes to the feeling of safety. Geordies are super fun and helpful. You can actually walk down the street as late as midnight or even longer, you would never feel unsafe or comfortable.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I wouldn't want to live here since I don't like the weather here and it is mostly on the colder side which is kind of depressing in the long run. Over the UK I would definitely prefer the climate of India to live, as it feels lively, happening and eventful in India.

Try to gain relevant industrial skills.
Tips: It was quite a good experience as it was my first time experiencing education at an international level. Newcastle upon Tyne is a beautiful and student-friendly city. Most of the students got a scholarship worth 34000. The job market in Europe including the UK is stagnant right now. You are more likely to get a job if you have relevant industrial skills along with work experience. Great work experience + skills will get you a job.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty at the institution are quite helpful and possess good knowledge of their respective subjects. They are approachable and willing to assist students in resolving their doubts or queries that may arise. In the end, what matters most is how focused you are towards your goals.
Dislikes (Internships): The Master's programme is of 1 year duration so it is quite difficult to get an internship. Also, the Student Visa allows you to work for 20 hours/ week. You can work more during term time but it is hardly 1 month. So, getting an internship is a struggle.

Microelectronics in Newcastle is good with lots of facilities.
Tips: Newcastle is best for M.Sc in microelectronics. The university provides lots of support and exercises for the job interviews. The teaching quality is so good and you will feel like you are studying exactly what you want. Few subjects only have assignments while some have exams.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculties are very nice and teaching is so good. Professors help us with every thing and they try to answer all our questions. One can ask professors to join research assistant position. One can also approach them for publication and PhD opportunity. They also provide recorded classes.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships in microelectronics course are very less. Internship depends on the course that one chooses. This is as per my knowledge. Internships are difficult to find. If one gets an internship then it becomes a heavy load to manage. The university provides career services wherein one can find jobs and internships.

Newcastle University is academically oriented, friendly, and easy going.
Tips: As the university is part of the Russell Group, the courses I encountered seemed to be heavily research-oriented rather than focusing on practical applications. Adapting to this environment was challenging for me, as it placed more emphasis on how something is articulated and documented than on the actual work being performed. This shift in focus required a significant adjustment in my approach to learning and demonstrating skills. However, there are many on-campus events held so students should participate in it and try to make some connections to maintain it as it will be helpful for your career in the future. If you feel stuck or are not able to understand the concept do not hesitate to reach out to the faculty. They are very friendly are will help you. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.

Tips: The city has a great vibe and is very friendly. The Newcastle United Football Club has the best supporters in the world, and their passion is great to watch. I loved the city, the university, and the people, and I know I will miss them all when I graduate.
Likes (Indian Food): Newcastle has a lot to offer, including great food at affordable prices. There are many Indian, Thai, Chinese, and Vietnamese restaurants within walking distance of campus. There's also a small Chinatown.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of getting sponsorship for a post-study visa are very rare. This is true for all of the UK. However, if you are only planning to live in the country for a short time, it is not a bad option. Skilled workers have better chances of getting sponsorship.

Affordable for students but not the best.
Tips: Students should know that this is a research-based university, and the best courses to study from here would be any course that incorporated sustainability into their modules, as the university is highly rewarded in the field of sustainability. Also, the university career cell assists in career growth and guidance, but the university itself is incapable of offering any placements like many other universities in the UK. Overall, the city life is peaceful and safe and is highly recommended for students with its affordability. 
Likes (Safety): Newcastle is generally considered a safe city with a welcoming and vibrant atmosphere. It boasts a strong sense of community, and residents and visitors often find it friendly and easy to navigate. Like any urban area, it is advisable to stay aware of your surroundings, especially at night, but overall Newcastle maintains a reputation as a safe and enjoyable city to live in and visit. 
Dislikes (Value for money): I believe other better universities in the UK and cities can be considered for education instead of Newcastle University, as there are many better jobs landscaped post-graduation at the university. The university mainly offers only international branches of those mainstream courses to earn money from international students.

An incredible space of learning and growth.
Tips: It is very different from what I learned and how I used to learn. I was prepared for a fast-paced learning environment where the focus was on practical applications rather than theory. Learning in this way was difficult at first, but I did get used to it eventually. One area of difficulty was the scholarship. I didn't get one, so I had to pay for all of my education expenses. People are more reserved in public, but they're very warm once you get to know them. Also, try to look out for accommodation as soon as you land.

Great place to study and work.
Tips: The weather is one thing in which you experience the change as well as the lifestyle of the people around you. Also, the language is also the barrier that these people have with the accents of here. I got the scholarship of 3500 GBP which was a great help that was availed at the time of admission. It is mentioned in the CAS letter. I am very satisfied with my course and future opportunities in the country.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transport in Cardiff is very good and timely. It has a day pass option as well, which is nice. Another great feature they have is the public transport app, which tells you which buses go where, and their departure and arrival times. As far as price goes, it's reasonable -- not too cheap, not too expensive. I think it's about 4.5 GBP per day.
Dislikes (Internships): As far as the internship part is concerned, the student union helps students get jobs, but we have to be adequately skilled. Also, the Student Future department helps students. However, this assistance is only provided because students are also supposed to eagerly look for jobs, but this assistance doesn't always come through because the opportunities are limited. Therefore, you need to be patient.

The university is known to have a good student community and it stands by it. There is something for everyone on the campus from club nights to arts and crafts events. Very buzzing campus. The city centre is vibrant and has many activities to do. It is not impossible to find part-time work in the city, but it is difficult. You need to look in the right places.

Fun and filled with challenges!
Tips: Everything depends on your mindset and willingness to adjust, its not gonna be easy at all! Every course has some scholarships for international students. There will be lots of cultural shifts, they will change you as a person. I am satisfied with the course/country 7.5 on a scale of 1-10.
Likes (Post study jobs): Not many companies would want to give you a sponsored visa if you don't have work experience in the UK depending on your niche, sponsored jobs can vary from 4-6% (i.e only that % of your course strength might actually land in a sponsored job).
Dislikes (Part time work): In this economy and high rate of immigrants, finding a job part-time isn't that easy. It might take you a few months 3-6 depending on your applications and effort. You can earn about 700-800 3 per month if you work 20 hrs per week. Very manageable with studies if you're a hard worker.

Cardiff University is amazing in terms of study and student life.
Tips: The transition was very smooth, my peers and teachers were very friendly and I was able to make amazing friends. I had a scholarship for academic excellence (90% in 10th and 85% in 12th). It was a scholarship of fee education by 33000. My University caters to my every need, the faculty on my course is spectacular and Cardiff is very easy to travel in and amazing for student life.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty are all very experienced, pioneers of their fields, friendly and helpful with students. There is so much to learn from them. We have office hours for doubt clarification and professors frequently reply to all your doubts by email. The teaching method is very interactive and makes the subject really interesting, the professors like using real life examples to connect us with the concept. The faculty is very diverse and they are friendly.
Dislikes (Value for money): The international fees is obviously quite a lot but you do get some very good opportunities and interact with some of the leading researchers in Physics which kind of makes it worth it. The fee is reasonable compared to other UK universities and hence provides fairly decent value for money.

Tips: The course was pretty basic. So I think just know how to struggle. I am not satisfied with the course and country due to bad situations. Also, housing crisis is going on. No scholarships were provided. Cultural shift is real. Please don't come if you are fresher. They charge for graduate VISA as well. Now they have increased the fee to 3000 pounds.
Likes (Student Life): Overall student life is fun. There are Bollywood parties, you can play football in the park and enjoy with your friends roaming in the UK. There are multiple events like diwali, holi for Indian students. Also, lot more things, you can play cricket, go to trips etc.
Dislikes (Value for money): No part time jobs are available. No professional jobs, as a fresher, you need 1-3 years of experience. You should not come to UK for I think the next 3 years. Also, teaching is okayish. Don't come if you are expecting salaries like USA. You have to buy graduate Visa for 3000 which is valid for 2 years.

You should also check out things about the environment near the college/ university like discrimination etc. Also, research the programme you want to enroll in.
Likes (Internships): Discrimination free environment with helpful folks. Student life of university was very good as everything what student needs during their time at the university like problem solving environment, sports activities both indoor & outdoor games, library, cafeteria & other activities are provided.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I experienced best in quality of faculty. Faculty of the university, focus on practical things more than the theory works. The best part of faculty is that they are very helpful in nature and they suggest and guide very clearly that help students.

Open minded, understanding and student friendly university.
Tips: The course is very interesting, and I am enjoying the variety of modules that help me understand the field in and out. However, the on-campus accommodation is very expensive, very far from the university, and very small. I would highly recommend taking off-campus accommodation, either student housing or private accommodation, as they are more spacious and price-friendly. I also received a scholarship for my first year of 2000 pounds. Scholarships are available for all years of study, provided you score first class. The country is not very welcoming, the locals are racist, and the weather is always depressing. You rarely see the sun. I am satisfied with my university experience at Cardiff University.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The professors at Cardiff University are very nice and always willing to help students. They are approachable if you schedule an appointment in advance. However, unlike in India, where students are used to being spoon-fed every detail before an assignment, here you are expected to do your own research and then come up with your own solution. This approach helps develop critical thinking and patience, which I appreciate and find to be a unique aspect of this university. On the downside, the faculty is not very diverse; they are all white, with no black, Chinese, or Indian professors.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): It is very difficult to get a job in the media field as a fresher. None of the companies were willing to offer me a job unless I got a work visa. The average salary offered by the company in this field is 24,000, which is not enough at all. Many jobs for administration and part-time bartenders and waitresses are being offered, but only a few professional jobs are available. Hardly any company would give you a job for who you are as an international student. If you're extraordinarily smart and confident, you might land a few interviews. But none of the companies want to give a chance to international students.
