Good facilities and diverse learning opportunities.

Tips: Students should know DMU offers strong support, a diverse culture and good facilities. Transitioning involved adapting to a new education style and independent living, which is different from India. I didn't get a scholarship. Overall, I'm satisfied with the university, the course and the UK life.

Finance and Investment MSc - Batch of 2025

Offered by De Montfort University

De Montfort University has highly experienced faculty and a diverse campus.

Tips: Before you join this college, you must be aware of a few key factors such as the academic structure, the grading system, the amount of work required, and what your professors are going to expect from you. Transitioning to a new country and university can both be exciting and challenging. When you make good friends you have a memorable time and it becomes easy to cope with academics. The work culture is also good and you earn enough to survive in the country. Just the student needs to be strong enough to handle the pressure, and I have been able to do that. The faculty is always eager to help you and very kind. They are very soft-spoken and always listen to your problems and come up with a solution. Professors also are very kind and go in-depth about the topic to get you to understand. They are very polite. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the course, university and country.

The university is quite good as well as the faculty.

Tips: The students should be ready for culture shock. There is a lot of cultural shift but one can do that at one's own pace. Scholarships are available up to 32500 and I am satisfied with my university. One last thing, everything boils down to you and how you do it so come prepared.
