MSc in Finance - Batch of 2025
3.3
supportive, diverse, intense yet rewarding college experience
Tips: There are scholarships based on per student's profile available, that is usually automatically given to you. Good exposure to other courses, they even let you attend their classes if you request. Good facilities- sports hall, gym, football court, etc. Definitely a cultural shift but you get to slowly transition since it is a big campus outside the city and hence all international students here are likely experiencing this for the first time. A lot of faculty members are international as well, hence, they understand the cultural diversity the cohort brings as well. The career and mental health service departments are good as well. they care not just about your job applications after but also your well-being during the academic year, are always happy to make reasonable adjustments for exams/ assignments/ classes and are approachable. It is an intense course but rewarding. Cranfield is soon emerging with King's College London which will then also give it the reputation in the school of management that it was lacking.
Likes (Student Life): Student union, every Friday, parties, more events throughout the year. The first month especially- loads of events of different kinds every day for people to meet. Good lounges in a few accommodations as well, with screens to play things like matches, movies or even connect games and play as a group nor even do group studies, other than the student buildings and library.
Dislikes (Internships): They have a career team to help you apply/ any part you need help with but they do not bring the internships/ placement to you. Also, since it is a postgraduate-only university, it does not have high ranking and hence lower reputation. They hold up to 2 career fair where all kinds of companies can set up a stand. However, they were more mechanical/ aerospace oriented and not finance/ school of management relevant. And they do not bring jobs, they bring awareness to the companies that you can then apply to yourself later. it gives you a chance to network and ask questions.

The short and beautiful experience of my education at Cranfield University
Tips: Yes, the college is extremely diverse in nature, so you can experience all sorts of cultures that shapes your world. College is extremely liberal and also has support groups for LGBTQ+ community. I did avail a scholarship. I got it from the University, I had to apply it by sending a mail to the course director. The process involves a simple interview about your work experiences and how much do you know about the course and subjects you would be taking as part of the course. I'm quite satisfied with the course.
Likes (Value for money): The university ranks among the best across the world for Engineering and Management courses, and for £30,000 fees, I think it's worth it, especially when you compare the fees you might be paying in similar ranked universities in USA or Canada. Also, there are plenty of scholarships available for every course, so you could easily get a scholarship (ranging from £1000-£20000).
Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time employment opportunities are scarce for students because the campus of the university is located in a village. There are just two stores and one student pub/cafe, which offer part-time employment opportunities, but they are often taken up by PhD students. So, you have to look for part-time employment opportunities off campus in Bedford and Milton Keynes. Lots of part-time employment opportunities are available. In particular, lots of warehouse part-time employment opportunities are available. Minimum wages are available from most of the part-time jobs, but the warehouse jobs, being plenty in number, will give you some extra bucks. So, you will be able to earn about 1000 pounds per month. The courses offered in the university are difficult and require hard work. Hence, part-time jobs are not recommended, especially in the initial 5 months.

Transformative Experience at Cranfield
Tips: Quite a fantastic experience. It was a huge culture shift at first, but a good one. I received a bursary of about 2000 pounds, which I had to request from the admissions team by emailing them after I received my offer letter. I am very happy with Cranfield University and the UK. I have grown personally and professionally.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty is accessible and approachable. The course and the modules are very heavily industry-focused, which is amazing. In my time, the faculty was a mix of British, Asian, and European, and they also had visiting faculty from different disciplines who gave guest lectures.
Dislikes (Value for money): It is a fantastic course, and the university is great. However, post-graduation support isn't the best. They do have a career team, but they aren't very helpful in preparing you to land a job. They will, however, help you curate your CV and prep for interviews and all that, but if you're new to the system, you have to figure out a lot on your own.

MSc Renewable Energy - Batch of 2024

Fulfilling and memorable experience at Cranfield University
Tips: Absolutely wonderful and memorable time getting to sit and learn and study in the Libraries with mates. Traveling to nearby towns and cities to shop and have a lot of fun. I was not able to avail myself of scholarships, however, they were available. I am relatively satisfied with my course, and I do miss staying in the UK.
Likes (Indian Food): Lots of Indian food available in and around Cranfield. Going north to Bedford, there are many authentic Indian restaurants that have really great food for good value for money. And down in Milton Keynes, there are markets filled with Indian groceries that will cater to Indian students very well.
Dislikes (Value for money): Coming from India, we expect the same type of teaching that happens. However, it is nowhere near the same level. We often overestimate the type of teaching that happens. It's mostly self-taught, but the approachability of professors makes it easier. We learn a lot, however, as the courses enable us to practically use our knowledge. Since we are international students, the feels is very high and doesn't justify the difference.

MBA - Full Time - Batch of 2028
3.6
Only masters university in the UK
Tips: The course is really hectic and has a heavy curriculum to cover. Specialized University of Engineering and Technology. All the courses at cranfield has unique structure that not only focuses on theory but also provides practical exposure, such as projects, research, and internships.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Because faculty focus more on research and practical work, they help in connecting with the right employers. The student-to-faculty ratio is relatively lower than at other universities, so students get maximum personal attention. Faculty also help students with their dissertation
Dislikes (Part time work): Because of Cranfield's location part time jibs are not available anywhere close to the university. The course is also designed in a way that it's very hectic for the students, especially for science and technology that they don't have time to do part-time jobs.
