3.9

Good academic environment.

Tips: I have learnt how to step out of my comfort zone and make the most of it. There weren't many cultural shocks other than the cost of some things, which are way more here and are considered essential back home, and the accents can be hard to follow at times. Otherwise, people are friendly and professors are very passionate about their lessons. Group projects are something you'll need to get used to if you're not already. Good environment.

MSc in Data Science - Batch of 2022

Offered by University of Bristol

A transformative academic journey at Bristol.

Tips: One of the first things I noticed after joining the University of Bristol was how seriously academics are taken here compared to the Indian education system. The professors are highly knowledgeable and clearly experts in their respective fields. Their passion for teaching and their subject areas really stand out, and it made me realise the value of studying at a top-tier university. The university is extremely supportive and responsible when it comes to student well-being, cohort management, and future career support. I've never had an experience where the university or staff were unresponsive or unhelpful. It truly feels like a place that wants its students to succeed. There are several scholarships available, and I would strongly encourage prospective students to apply. In many cases, the selection does not strictly depend on your past academic record or work experience. So don't hesitate, there's a good chance you might receive one if you apply thoughtfully. Overall, I've been very satisfied with my experience; the course was well structured, the academic environment is inspiring, and living in the UK, especially coming from a developing country, offers a great opportunity to grow both personally and professionally.

Likes (Internships): The university has a dedicated career service where you can book appointments for personalised support. They assist with CV building, offer training sessions, and help you write effective cover letters. They also connect students with opportunities such as the Internship Programme, where the university often funds the internship on behalf of the employers. Additionally, they provide information about career fairs, job openings, and various internship opportunities through their online platform.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): When it comes to permanent immigration, the university doesn't play a large role in it. The course, luck, and your past experiences are more important factors. In fact, I have seen many people move back home to their country after completing their master's programs because they didn't have enough job opportunities where they were studying.

MSc Communication Networks and Signal Processing - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Bristol

A supportive and globally, engaging experience at Bristol.

Tips: Before joining the University of Bristol, students should be prepared for a culturally diverse and academically rigorous environment. The transition here involves adapting to an independent learning style and managing life away from home, which initially felt overwhelming. However, the support system, ranging from Academy advice to mental health services, helped me settle in. I haven't received any scholarships, but my friends have received a TB scholarship, which is incredibly tough to get. Only a handful of students receive the scholarship every year, and I know a few students who have also received a Shaven scholarship. Because I didn't receive any scholarships, I spent all the money from my education loan, which was a pretty high amount. Overall, I'm satisfied with my university, my course, and the country, but the cost of tuition is very high. I would only recommend applying to people with relevant experience related to the Master's coursework and who are willing to spend a huge amount of money as an investment toward their education.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Quality of faculty is great. The professors are not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in students. They are very approachable, whether during scheduled office hours or via email. They are always open to questions and discussions beyond lectures. The teaching methodology combines strong practical exposure along with theory, especially through research-led assignments, lab-based sessions, and industry-relevant case studies.

Dislikes (Indian Food): The options for affordable and tasty Indian food are quite less around the university. Some dishes feel adapted to local taste, and it's hard to find regional specialities. I prefer cooking at home, usually. The cost of Indian groceries is quite affordable, but travelling to Indian stores can't be done every time because it's a bit far from the accommodation and requires spending money on bus or taxi fare. Most of the Indian groceries are available in local stores like Sainsbury's, Lidl, and Tesco, so it's better to cook individually than to eat out at restaurants.

MSc Wireless Communications and Signal Processing - Batch of 2025

Offered by University of Bristol

A fulfilling global journey.

Tips: Students should be ready for independent learning and diverse cultures. The transition was smooth, but there was a cultural shift in both academics and social life. I didn't avail any scholarships.

Likes (Safety): The campus feels secure with 24/7 security and CCTV. The university also offers night-time transport and well-being support. The city is generally safe, though, like any urban area, it's wise to stay alert, especially at night. But the area near the campus is especially safe.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is knowledgeable and approachable, often available outside class and responsive to queries. Teaching is hands-on and project-based, making learning practical and engaging. The team is internationally diverse, bringing varied perspectives.

There are a variety of jobs available for part-time.

Tips: Before coming here, you should develop the ability to handle things well and stick to your schedule. Part-time jobs are tough, and there will be plenty of rejections. If you manage your time properly, then the average pay of 12 pounds is very manageable. There are a variety of jobs available as part-time work. This includes a cleaner, a waiter or waitress, a receptionist, and teaching assistants. The food options are very limited and very costly. Please learn to cook before coming here.
