MSc Data Science - Batch of 2025

Offered by Newcastle University

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

Offered by Newcastle University

3.9

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.

MSc in Operations, Logistics and Supply Chain Management - Batch of 2025

Offered by Newcastle University

4.2

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.

Msc Data Science (with Specialisation in Artificial Intelligence) - Batch of 2025

Offered by Newcastle University

3.9

The university is very friendly and diverse.

Tips: Before joining, students should know about the amenities and transportation sources and also some students discounts while getting to buy something. The university campus is good and calm. 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.
