MSc in Advanced Computer Science - Batch of 2025

4.1

A rewarding academic journey in Birmingham.

Tips: If you're looking at coming here, my biggest piece of advice is to do your homework on the course and slide into the DMs of current students or alumni on LinkedIn. Getting their raw feedback on how the modules are actually taught, what the internship scene looks like, and the real job prospects is a lifesaver. Moving over to the UK was actually a pretty smooth transition for me, even though it took a hot minute to get used to the British academic style, which is way more focused on you studying independently and pushing for critical thinking rather than just memorizing notes. The campus itself has a massive international crowd, which is amazing for meeting people from totally different backgrounds. I also managed to bag a £2,000 scholarship straight from the uni based on my past grades, which definitely took some of the sting out of the tuition fees. Overall, I’ve been really happy with the whole experience. The facilities here are top-tier, the academic support actually helps when you ask for it, and Birmingham itself is a fantastic city to live in. Whether you're chilling on campus right by Old Joe or staying over in Selly Oak, the whole student vibe here is honestly class—there’s always something random going on.

MSc in Computer Science - Batch of 2025

4.5

One of the best universities and also one of the top universities in the world within the top 100z

Tips: There wasn’t any cultural shift as such because wherever I went, there were Indian people. I did get a global master's scholarship, which waived some amount from my tuition fees. I’m very satisfied with the course that I did, and I love my university!

Likes (Student Life): The lectures aren’t too lengthy and not boring at all. College is just 2-3 hrs a day and about 3 days a week at most. Most of the work is based on self-study after lectures. Students get plenty of time to manage their lives and studies, plus there’s no pressure.

Dislikes (Internships): Vast majority of options to choose from, including paid and unpaid internships. Many opportunities are based on the course you’ve opted for, and depending on your knowledge and experience, you’ll surely land one good internship. If successful in it, you might also get offered a permanent position in the company.

MSc in Advanced Chemical Engineering with Energy - Batch of 2026

4.7

Life-changing experience with lot of life lessons and a lot of opportunities.

Tips: I want you to know all the necessary information regarding the university and the programs and the events that's happening. Research about the professors background so that when you come here you should be able to build a connection with them. You will get a lot of opportunities through those networks and also you should always be updated with the events that happening in the context and around the campus and in Birmingham so if there is an event it's better to go and attend it, and this way you will have like very good opportunities of landing into your job.

Likes (Post study jobs): In a further energy-related field there is a lot of scope. There are a lot of jobs available in the company. There is a huge demand for energy. I have landed three jobs before even completing my degree, which is a very good thing, so that's why I have rated five.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Due to the increasingly tough situations for immigrants because of the policies and regulations, there is a difficulty for settlement options. Getting a job is good but settling into it needs a high payment, high salaries, which are a little bit difficult for freshers but if you are experienced, then it's not a big deal. There is a demand for experienced individuals.

MSc Business Analytics - Batch of 2024

4.4

A well rounded and rewarding experience at UoB.

Tips: Students should know that the University of Birmingham offers a strong academic environment with excellent facilities, supportive faculty, and plenty of opportunities to grow professionally. Transitioning here was smooth, though there was a cultural shift in terms of academic independence, coursework, and communication style and the pace of life in the UK. I'm very satisfied with the university, the course and the country.

Likes (Public transportation): The University of Birmingham is extremely well connected to the rest of the city. The campus has its own dedicated train station - University Station, with frequent and reliable trains directly to Birmingham New Street and other key areas. In addition, buses run regularly around campus and the surrounding neighborhoods.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of obtaining PR are very less seeing the political landscape. My experience at the University of Birmingham helped my connection to the country and if the opportunity for permanent settlement were more accessible, I'd be open to pursuing it.

3.8

Good facilities and helpful faculty.

Tips: Taking admission at the University of Birmingham was an enriching experience. While I initially experienced a cultural shift, I adjusted over time. I also received a merit-based scholarship with allowance support and am very satisfied with the university, course, and overall UK experience.

Likes (Safety): I felt secure both inside and outside of the college. Besides campus security, there are CCTV cameras, well-lit streets, emergency help, and regular police patrols. My overall experience in the city has been positive, with locals being helpful and friendly.

Dislikes (Indian Food): There are limited choices from my home country. The area has a mix of cafes, fast-food chains, and some mid-range Asian restaurants. While prices are moderate, regular dining out can be expensive, so I prefer cooking at home.
