MSc in Food Economics and Marketing - Batch of 2025
4.6
Welcoming, diverse and a fun student space.
Tips: Transition to UOR was super smooth, though there was a cultural difference for sure but the university hosted a lot of events and get togethers that made the university life sorted and very less hectic.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is very appreciative, approachable and always answers questions and have a willingness to come up with new concepts and content in every other lecture, plus it is quite a diverse faculty as well so you don't feel overwhelmed and left out.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I rated 3 because while the UK has a lot of opportunities, staying back is very skill and course dependent. NHS and other skill shortage courses only gives settlements. In marketing, that is really less. Jobs are still there but very less sponsored jobs.

Due to the recession in the UK, only a few companies are offering sponsorships.
Tips: Students should consider whether they can secure a job after graduation. Knowing a European language is a plus point. Check for the scholarship and find any universities offering it, and also the fees, whether it is the same everywhere. Also, investigate placement assistance and the campus environment.
Likes (Quality of faculty): They are nice and approachable. They make sure to understand us, guiding us in all aspects, and they did a very good job with the practicals. Though the British accent is tough to understand for Indians, they will use the tone, which can be easily understood by everyone.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Due to the recession in the UK, only a few companies are offering sponsorships. Packages are generally around 35,000, which is not enough for sponsorship. Keep this in mind if you plan to settle in the UK, as nationality and visa issues can sometimes be a problem.

University of Reading: Home to new experiences! Become bold and confident.
Tips: Be more open to new environments, cultures, and academic styles. Joining different clubs can make the transition easier. Received a scholarship of £4000 by applying to centenary and subject scholarships through the university website. The structure for the course is good but I wish it included more practical work throughout course.
Likes (Indian Food): Lot of options for Indian food, and Indian grocery stores are also available within a reasonable distance. Many restaurants offer Indian food and are also suitable for vegetarians. I was also lucky enough to be able to do part-time in an Indian restaurant as part of the front office.
Dislikes (Internships): Although the university publishes opportunities that are available for students, they are most often not for master’s students and very less opportunities for overseas students. And as an international student, you will not be able to apply for internships due to work permit restrictions.

Good college and value for money.
Tips: I have become a more responsible person once I reached here. In terms of knowledge, I can say I have gained practical experience in different domains which were new to me. I did get a scholarship of 3000 pounds and that was based on my IELTS score and I can say I am fully satisfied with it.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is quite approachable. They give out their time when the students can actually go out to them and ask queries. Diversity in teaching style and methodology is present as various methods are taught for the same subject and it enhances our knowledge.
Dislikes (Internships): In terms of applying for the internships, the help is given by the university. Also Reading being closer to London gives the opportunity to apply for jobs in a wider range of companies and in various domains. Some internships are indeed present in the field of study.

Course modules are good for this course
Tips: Make sure to have knowledge of modules before joining. Professors only read the ppts they have made, we have to apply those practically to understand. Exam patterns/assignments are different than what we have in our country. So you have to make extra efforts to excel in the course modules.

Hardships of the International students in the UK.
Tips: Coming to the UK at this time of recession and spending so much money on university fees is not so worth it. But if money is not a factor for you to worry about and you want to learn more then UOR is great. If you are lucky you might get a job by trying hard. But then the salaries they offer you might not be enough for your monthly survival or what we at least expect to get after completing a degree and spending tons of money.
Dislikes (Indian Food): It is not so easy to find a suitable job in the UK as a graduate even for an entry-level job they expect you to have experience for 3 years and if you find a job then you will need a sponsorship from this company to stay here which is another big challenge.

Genuine Review of my experience
Tips: You can expect the best possible university experience. But you should be prepared to work hard and be independent and self-reliant. Friendly atmosphere, great faculty, excellent laboratory equipment, Great Modules, top class Library, workshops and practical work.
Likes (Public transportation): Public Transportation in Reading is superb. Cheap and readily available. 24/7 bus service to all parts of reading town. There is a bus which will directly take you to the Campus. You will get a bus every 15 minds. You can get bus pass for a week or monthly at affordable price.
Dislikes (Internships): The are guidance available. But there is no placement cell for my department. There are no internships available for students who passed out. That's one issue. We often get job and career fares, but they mostly help us to interact with people from different companies. But they don't really hire you.

MSc in Forensic Investigation - Batch of 2025
Offered by University of Portsmouth

The curriculum is well-structured and aligned with industry standards.
Tips: The University of Portsmouth provides strong academic support, modern facilities, and a practical approach to forensic investigation. Internships and job opportunities exist but require proactive searching. The cost of living in Portsmouth is relatively affordable compared to London, but budgeting is important. Part-time jobs are available but competitive, especially in retail and hospitality. Weather can be gloomy so be prepared for frequent rain and could wind. The transition was smooth for me, but I can't say the same for everyone. Managing studies, cooking, and social life was a bit overwhelming at first, but I adapted quickly. The British accent and communication style took some getting used to. People here value punctuality, politeness, and personal space, which is different from home. Independence is key to handling everything alone, from bills to daily tasks, which was a big adjustment. I received the Dean's Scholarship, but it wasn't a significant amount. The university also offers other scholarships, like the Chancellor Global Academic Merit Scholarship, which provides up to 35,000 for eligible students. Overall, I am very much satisfied with the course, university and the country.
Likes (Value for money): The M.Sc. Forensic Investigation programme provides high-quality education, experienced faculty, and access to specialized forensic labs, case studies, and real-world applications. The curriculum is well-structured and aligned with industry standards, making it worth the investment. The university offers good career support, networking events, and mentorship programs like the Hampshire Constabulary programme, which add value beyond just academics. These opportunities can help students gain practical experience and improve employability. The university provides modern infrastructure, research facilities, access to forensic databases, and support services that enhance the learning experience. The overall student experience, including academic guidance and extracurricular activities, makes the tuition fee feel reasonable.
Dislikes (Internships): The university provides some level of support, but it might not be as hands-on as expected. There may be career services, job portals, and occasional workshops on CV writing or interview prep. However, students are often expected to be proactive in searching and applying for internships themselves. There might be some internships related to forensic investigation, but they are not always easy to secure. The opportunities may be more general like retail or admin roles rather than directly linked to crime scene investigation or forensic analysis. Some students might need to apply externally rather than relying solely on university-provided listings.

A great place with academic excellence and top notch education.
Tips: The University of Portsmouth is one of the top universities of the country so it takes a great academic record to get in here. First, you should have a great score in your previous qualification. Before coming here prepare yourself and write an extraordinary application. Also, look for scholarships because having a scholarship will reduce your burden. And in last get counselling from experts and former students, they will help you in getting most of the insights.
Likes (Safety): The University of Portsmouth is located in Portsmouth, the UK's only island city. The University offers a vibrant campus with great facilities for students. The campus is full of various cultural clubs which helps in finding own kind of feel in a different country. The cultural clubs organize various events. The various communities help the students with their daily problems. There are around 140 various clubs and communities. If you are coming here then it's a great choice no doubt. You will enjoy the campus.
Dislikes (Part time work): The University of Portsmouth is well known for its teaching quality and academic excellence. The faculty here is amongst the top in the country. So, no doubt the faculty is top-notch. The diversity among the teachers makes students from different countries comfortable here. The methodology is great in terms of everything.

Top University for research power.
Tips: There are many things that students should keep in their mind before coming to the University of Portsmouth. They should know the entry requirements. The acceptance rate for international students is 70%. Prepare for interviews because they take interviews for some courses sometimes. They gave scholarships based on your last course percentage. I am satisfied with the university and course.
Likes (Student Life): The University of Portsmouth is pretty good for students. They provide every necessity that a student should have and the career opportunities are great. There are many events for the students. We Indians celebrate every kind of festival there. There are cultural clubs also which organize various events. There are great facilities for interactive learning and sports. In a nutshell, it is a great hub for enjoying student life.
Dislikes (Value for money): The faculty of University of Portsmouth is passionate and very helpful. They are dedicated towards the progress of students. They are always available for help. They have a unique way of teaching and the most important thing is that they teach and deliver their lectures in a well-organized way. Many teachers from different countries are there and it makes me feel good to see them teaching in their own ways.

Internships and placement opportunities are available.
Tips: No need to worry or panic before coming it is a very good place to study. Friendly, supportive and cooperative with international students because that is how this university is very diverse. No security problem and I, as a girl always feel safe even outside the campus. Library is where I spend most of my time and I feel peace there and Portsmouth is peaceful too on whole.
Likes (Internships): Work placements happen as I said before and they usually happen for 36 weeks I have read that around 17000 pounds are the average package for that regarding internships. So most of the students find themselves on the portals like jobisjob and graduatejobs bright network is another good portal for internships only.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): University organises recruitment fair and career events but these are mostly need-based, most of the time startups come to take part in the university. Also there are many jobs posted on the job board but still, like it happens in the top colleges of India it does not happen here, mega recruitment is something I have not seen as of now but I am still studying so I don't know much about it.

A university to get admitted to
Tips: The buildings of the university are scattered and not in a place so many students sometimes find it a bit difficult to move from one lecture to the other. But with me it is not the case, our school of business is unique I must say! Gym facilities are great but there can be some improvements done to student career support in terms of searching the jobs or making the most out of placement year. Student community is good no doubt and there are many research opportunities too so if you are coming from India think like you will get many opportunities.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty has to be the best part of this university. So helpful and supportive even if they see an underperforming student for them everyone is equal and they also understand the shift in the education system and try to make the transition very smooth. There is a good chance to make a good bond with any professor on campus.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Before coming learn something to make simple things like tea/coffee, maybe some veggies or basic curries so very little money will be spent. Saving is the key to living a student life. Indian food is available but the restaurants are expensive nothing like the street style. I spend somewhere between 175 GBP- 200 GBP on food each month which I think is fair.

I like this university it has everything.
Tips: Many Indian and African students study in Portsmouth and it feels like home so many places to visit. There are many good architecture spots as well and many bridges and parks to enjoy. People are very nice and they greet me also. I think I got a 3000-pound scholarship and it is given to international students on grades. My course is very industry made and the tutors are also from many countries not only from the UK so they teach many things and also give examples from the countries by which they come.
Likes (Public transportation): Buses, trains, tube, bicycles, taxi every mode is there no problem to travel and public transport is not expensive. Good for students like me. University also has buses which are free of cost which goes round across Portsmouth so that is also very helpful for students.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): No complain I have on the permanent settlement. Some members from my family have already come to UK so I don't think there is any problem but a good job is necessary and internships should also be good. It is top-notch country to live in everything is first-class education, healthcare and security. Work visa for 5 years and then ILR application can be done to stay permanent so everything starts with one step.

Tips: There is an international allowance available which is about 3000-4000 Pounds. Acceptance to this university is not very tough just submit documents on time and the process should be smooth. The area is good everything is available nearby, all grocery stores are near to college also no problem with accommodation. Many Indians studying can take a shared room too which will not cost much. Cook the food yourself it will be cheap and better. Bring some spices with you as they are very cheap. Dhaniya is very costly and no chilli is free.

Tips: When I thought of studying abroad, I always wanted to study somewhere beautiful and so I love being in Portsmouth. The people, the area everything is so good. The courses in this university are good which makes it a good choice. If you are from a business course you'll not have to think more about the course selection the B-school got it covered. No unnecessary modules are present. Simple, to the point and very forthcoming in the end.
Likes (Safety): The university provides free bus service which we take by just showing our student ID. Facility support is very good. No issues of security and the crime rate is also low. The college also provides housing support and this facility is also good. There are also campus emergency numbers and helplines.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is good and comes from many countries. Many guest lecturers also come and that is the best part of this course. I have not seen such jolly faculty in India anywhere. Sometimes it is not like what students say that everything is easy while talking about teaching. There are many assignments and CSE studies to do. Professors help with that but sometimes it is difficult to change from one teaching methodology to another.

It's good. The teachers are nice and really helpful. There are always events going on to enjoy.
Tips: There are fewer part time jobs available in this city while studying. I didn't have any cultural shifts because I found a lot of students here back from my home country. I am quite satisfied with the course because the teachers are quite nice and helpful.
Likes (Quality of faculty): There are less physical exams and more assignments to work on. The teachers are helpful and nice to students. The teachers are also happy to reply to the students by mail if they have any doubts about their coursework or assignments. I really enjoy their teaching style.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): If someone managers to get a sponsored job in this country then it's quite easy for them to settle. I would probably settle if I manage to get a full-time sponsored job but for me who has no previous work experience it is hard to get into a job here.

University of Portsmouth's coursework is satisfying.
Tips: To be very honest there was no cultural shifts that I experienced. Because everything is good here all the people are familiar here and want to connect with us so I like the people and their mentality because I want to adopt our culture. Before coming here every student should know about the scholarship details because there are lots of scholarship options for international students as I also avail 31400 scholarship. There are some early bird scholarships like first come first serve.
Likes (Indian Food): As in portsmouth there are lots of restaurants and cuisins some of them are Indian cuisines also in which we get all types of Indian food. Being an international student if we can find such food it is a great option. If we talk about the pricing they are not too costly and all items are within budget. I prefer cooking myself because it is a good option in comparison to eating outside.
Dislikes (Safety): As according to my experience here the university provides full privacy and security. There is a student union here to solve every problem and guide us for every step. There are anti- harassement, anti-ragging, and some student university squads to provide complete security and guidance for every student.

Beautiful scenery and good quality life in Portsmouth.
Tips: No need to worry before coming to Portsmouth. Many Indians live around Southampton or nearby areas. Many events take place around the city where we get to meet and greet people from many nationalities. A lot to do here without getting bored with anything. I live close to the town centre so no worries about shopping too. Accommodation outside is also very good. Neat and tidy rooms, nicely ventilated. The library is very spacious and has many computers to access the material. Student union and sports are excellent. It is always good to take a walk around Gunwharf Quays. It is indeed a beautiful city.
Dislikes (Internships): One good thing is that all the internships are paid which we don't see mostly in South Asia. The college helps a bit but students need to search for internships on their own mostly. For my course, it is a bit tricky to secure one because of competition in the Law field. Internships are relevant but always a tough nut to crack.

Portsmouth is a beautiful City. College is good as well.
Tips: Both faculty and students are from many countries around the world. The campus is close to many tourist spots so it is not boring. Good to enjoy with friends. The only thing that we Indians struggle with in Portsmouth is the weather. It is usually very chilly and around January, February it gets very cold but accommodations do have the necessary arrangements so one does get used to it. There are some issues related to mobile and connectivity but it is not that much it is bearable. Always look out for better SIM providers when coming to this city.
Likes (Post study jobs): More jobs than Canada are available and a sponsor visa is just what is needed. Some of my friends are working across the UK having around 25k pound package just after graduation but for that good project, reports need to be shown. The only one thing to remember is to look out for jobs early because it takes time to look for a perfect role because of competition.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Many Turkish and middle eastern restaurants are present. Hallal options are also available for Muslims but as a student it gets very costly as compared to India. A simple Kebab costs around 4-5 pounds which is just 60-100 rupees in India or at max 200.

There is a student union in my university and an astoria club for graduation parties.

Scholarships are available on merit basis.
Tips: There was no cultural shift that I had experienced when I came here for the first time. I got a 32000 scholarship on the basis of my 12th standard marks as I scored 85% in my 12th. I am fully satisfied with my university, my course and the country as well. Because the university holds a good ranking which provides better employment opportunities.

Most of the international students can get scholarships.
Tips: I have not experienced any cultural shift as it is a very small city as compared to other cities in the UK where students usually go to study but everything is near like supermarkets etc. The campus is also not so big, the buildings are close and the staff and lecturers are also very helpful. I got a 1600 GBP scholarship which is provided to international students by the university and if you want to come here you will also get it. Placements are also good I have seen the seniors getting placed in good companies in the UK and it has a good QS world ranking. I am satisfied by getting admission here.

Best for IBS and business related courses.
Tips: There was not any cultural shift for me. Other students and staff from facilities helped me get settled very fast. I thought it would be difficult and there would be so much to adjust but it is not at all like that. People are also very friendly and supportive. I got 1600 GBP scholarship and my other Indian friends got this as well. IBM nowadays is a very popular course and many students are taking it up. If you want to study forex and import/export business this is for you. I am fully satisfied, the university has a good reputation and there are good options to get settled here after graduation.
