Beautiful experience in a multi dimensional way.

MSc in Social Science Research Methods (International Relations) - Batch of 2026

3.9

Good experiences and growth.

Tips: I have learned a lot in my time spent here and that includes classroom hacks to budgeting trips which have helped me in getting through student life. Classes are well conducted and very feedback driven so if you ask professors for extra assistance and show them your dedication to learning, it can really benefit you. Socialising is easy because of the number of club activities and mixers that keep happening.

MA in Architectural Design - Batch of 2026

Student culture and life is good.

Tips: My experience has been peaceful, exciting and I have gained a lot of knowledge and experience here. Some modules can feel repetitive but the labs are good and research is taken seriously. You can also gain on field experience here based on your course and department.

Dislikes (Internships): Sometimes you can get an internship through career services or professors but most of the time, internships have to be figured out by ourselves. The job and internship prospects are limited mostly but if you get any here, they're usually really solid.

Safe and good community here.

Tips: The environment here is supportive, people are welcoming and the city is very safe so the culture is very student oriented and friendly. You can approach professors and faculty directly and they are usually very responsive and direct. Career support here can be better and more specific to our needs. Otherwise, the sense of community and people are great here.

University life abroad is good and fun.

Tips: The programme here is very academically strong and professors are great mentors. There are some hidden gems around campus and locals are pretty friendly as well. Pretty calm and good for youngsters to pursue their education. Coursework was crazy intense during the first semester and that took me a second to adjust. Lectures are interesting although assignments can be very research based.
