MSc in Finance and Investment Banking - Batch of 2025

Beyond the classroom- A experience worth investing in.

Tips: The students should be aware of the job market in the UK if the reason for the study is to get employed in the country itself. You can find options to apply for scholarships when applying to the university. I personally got a scholarship of £2000. The country is worth studying, enjoying your student life, and building a great career.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The teaching faculty has professors from various countries and is very supportive. Also, the teaching methodology is great, it keeps you engaged, and the schedule does not drain you. We had lectures only 3 days a week, 4 hours a day. That’s truly what every student desires.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are not many companies that offer sponsor visas specifically now, post changes in sponsorship rules. It’s next to impossible for a fresher to crack a sponsored role, but if you find an internship during your course or a part-time role basically UK work experience- which can contribute to the experience for the job you are applying for, it can be really helpful and may land you a sponsored job.

Variety of extracurricular opportunities and friendly atmosphere.

Tips: I transition pretty well because of the people who are quite friendly. But there are cultural socks. I got a scholarship of 25% of my tuition fees. I applied for it by providing an essay of my achievements. I am quite satisfied by the course and the activities.

Likes (Indian Food): There are so many options. Even grocery stores and clothing options are in abundance. I prefer to cook at home because it is more budget-friendly and you get an essence of your home. I do eat out sometimes, as there are so many options to choose from, and you have student discounts.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The contact hours are very few. And it is hard to contact them out of lecture hours. And the methodology is that we have block courses that are 2 modules each semester. And there are a total of 3 semesters and one major project, which runs for three months.

NTU provides good guidance through career services, CV workshops, and employer events.

Tips: Nottingham Trent University offers modern facilities, a diverse culture and strong career links. The transition was smooth with the support even though the study style differed. I gained tuition fee scholarships, which eased the cost. I'm satisfied with my course, the university and life in the UK.

Likes (Public transportation): NTU is well connected by trams, buses and trains. The campus is in the city centre, making travel quick and convenient. Student passes make fares affordable and frequent services make computing easy and reliable.

Dislikes (Internships): NTU provides good guidance through career services, CV workshops and employers events. Many internships are relevant to my field but competition is high and some roles are unpaid which makes access slightly challenging.

4.0

Felt lively with all the events and fellow students.

Tips: It's pretty much normal, and the transition for undergraduate courses is much tougher than for master's. Not much preparation is required to adjust, but start applying for internships as soon as possible so that it's easier to transition to full-time work, as experience matters.

Likes (Part time work): Many workplaces, like restaurants, offer flexible hours that accommodate the university schedule, which is a definite advantage. As a student in a major city, there are numerous opportunities to apply for part-time work, and it's relatively easy to find a position, especially with a reference.

Dislikes (Indian Food): There are plenty of Indian restaurants, but they aren't as good as traditional Indian food. Fortunately, there are also plenty of Indian grocery stores, so cooking isn't a problem. You have to travel to Leicester for good Indian food; the ones in Notts are not up to par, so learn to cook or suffer.

Nottingham is a vibrant student city with a diverse mix of cultures.

Tips: There are great scholarships offered by the university, and you should definitely apply. There are many Indian people here, so don't worry about fitting in. Also, good Indian food and festivals are celebrated with a lot of enthusiasm at the Hindu temple every year.

Likes (Safety): Campus and overall Nottingham are very safe. The people are helpful, and the university offers various facilities to support students. I can personally attest to the safety; it was safe for me to walk back from the train station to my accommodation at 2:30 am. Public transport is also very safe.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are not many companies sponsoring students due to new immigration regulations, making it difficult to find a job, but skills matter. IT job roles are generally available, starting around 5,000 per year, and part-time work is varied and also available.
