MS in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence - Batch of 2024

Limited support for freshers.
Tips: There was more of a lifestyle shift than a cultural shift for me as I moved to the UK as soon as I finished my undergrad. I started working part-time jobs to pay the bills. Due to the variety of restaurants and tiffin services available, British Indian food can be a bit bland. I prefer cooking, but there are also great local restaurants for students to explore. There is an area in Sheffield called London Road, which is known for its variety of food joints. I am satisfied with the university experience but not the course fully.
Dislikes (Internships): Due to limited guidance in finding or applying for relevant opportunities. Additionally, the internships are not directly provided by the university, and I received few responses from the companies I applied to. In my experience, the internships that I applied for were not directly relevant to the course of study.

Academically, university is excellent but personally it’s going to be extreme lonely
Tips: Anticipate well towards huge culture shocks and it's going to be very lonely so join societies. Try building a lot of connections and attending lectures. Finding part time is extremely difficult in the first year but you need to keep applying. Everything is going to be expensive.

MSc Urban and Regional Planning - Batch of 2023
Offered by The University of Sheffield
4.1
Best life experience which I always wanted to have. I made good networks.
Tips: Before joining any college in the UK every student needs to know that you have to compromise with your comfort of life and work hard. Rather than going there and crying make sure you are ready for it. You have to learn time management. Manage your currency. Have a part-time job which is stable. Work on your assignments. Make your network strong.
Likes (Student Life): Considering Sheffield as a university town you will not have a campus, the whole city is your campus. You get to meet new people and there are many events organised, job fair etc. I was a part of the Indian society there. We had events organised by them.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There were few Indian-origin restaurants but mainly provided food as per UK taste. There is a restaurant named Maveli which provides good Kerala-type food. Cooking food at home would be preferable as having Indian food outside would be expensive. Best is to cook your own food as per your taste.

Academically, the university offers a good platform.
Tips: Students should be aware that while the University of Sheffield offers strong academic resources and a supportive environment, some practical aspects like course structure, lab access or career support might not always meet expectations. It’s important to actively seek out opportunities, engage with professors, and use available resources like the library and career services. Planning ahead and being proactive makes a big difference. I received a partial scholarship, it was reduced in my tuition fee. I’m satisfied. Academically, the university offers a good platform, and the UK has provided a rich learning and cultural experience. However, there are areas especially practical course components and job market support for international students that I feel could be improved.
Likes (Indian Food): Sheffield has a decent number of Indian and South Asian resting and grocery stores, which made it easier to find familiar food. From ready made meals to fresh spices and ingredients, most things are available if you know where to look. There are several Indian restaurants like Maveli and Butlers Balti House. They offer both dine in and takeaway options, with prices ranging from £10 to £20 per person depending on what you order. I prefer cooking at home most of the time, both for health reasons and to save money.
Dislikes (Value for money): I didn’t feel like my master's was worth whatever I paid. The way teaching was done or our assignments were structured I learnt a lot along the way, but still, it wasn’t worth that much. There was only one industrial visit, and I had hoped for a more hands-on experience.

Understand the latest immigration policy before you come here.
Tips: Do research on and apply for every available scholarship. The University of Sheffield is on a visa-sponsored, not a tourist visa. Understand the latest immigration policy before you get there. You must know the reason you are at this university. Do a lot of research on what makes you tick. If you are looking to make money for your family while you are here, don't take courses that require you to get a SC for jobs.
