MSc Mechanical Engineering (18-month route) - Batch of 2025
Offered by University of Hertfordshire
4.8
I enjoy so much while studying with different students. I learned so many new things and skills
Tips: You need to manage your studies and part-time job to balance your life. Also you can perform well in interviews so you can get a scholarship as well which is approximately 2000 pounds. And Hatfield is a nice village to live in, and also it's close to Heathrow Airport.
Likes (Safety): Because I never feel unsafe or comfortable here. Everyone is helpful. If you greet and show respect for others, then they are also willing to help you. Also, the university arranges so many functions so you can meet people from different countries and you can make new friends.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): If you got a good job that pays you good money, then by using your skills and experience, you can settle here easily. If you have good skills, then you can easily get a sponsored job, and you can set your life in a good manner and with a positive attitude. That's it.

4.0
Best campus, friendly staff, Easy access to other places in campus. Quality faculties.
Tips: Before joining, students should understand course workload, living cost, and independence required. The transition involved adapting to the UK teaching style and multicultural environment. Scholarships may be merit-based with partial fee waivers. Overall, I am satisfied with the university, course, and opportunities in the UK.
Likes (Student Life): I gave student life a 5 because the whole vibe on campus is just really well-balanced. Your days are a mix of grinding through lectures and study sessions, but there's always time to just hang out and reset with friends. Hertfordshire is great at putting things on, too—there’s constantly some sort of cultural event, random workshop, or club meetup happening. It’s super easy to get involved, meet people outside your course, and actually have a proper social life instead of just locking yourself in your room with textbooks all day.
Dislikes (Part time work): On campus part-time jobs in UK universities include library assistants, student ambassadors, research assistants, and campus support roles. Off-campus options include retail, hospitality, tutoring, and delivery jobs. Work is manageable with academics if limited to 15-20 hours/week. Average pay is around £312-315.

M.Sc Data Science with Placement Year - Batch of 2025

4.3
Good exposure and strong academics.
Tips: The majority of the study should be done yourself. Modules are way to pass one you get the pattern but that knowledge alone isn't enough to get jobs. The practical experience of working on projects is good and getting in touch with any of the professors would help later for recommendations purpose.
Likes (Value for money): The fees for the university are less for Master's courses compared to Russell group universities but the faculty is amazing and you get enough opportunities for exposure. The university is also student oriented so any issues are quickly resolve and most of the time spent there was free of stress.
Dislikes (Part time work): The average payout is a minimum wage of 12 pounds but opportunities are less. As Hatfield is a small place and not many part times jobs are available. The majority of people worked in London or Luton but commute there and Hatfield takes time and money so not worth it.

Good exposure and a calm campus.
Tips: It's a good university for exposure and student life. Campus life is fun and safe with lots of activities but part timejobs are limited since it's a small city so you may need to travel to other cities. I'm satisfied with the university, course and country.

Helpful faculty and friendly staff.
Tips: Before joining this college, I felt a little bit nervous but after a few days I felt comfortable. Our university provided scholarships by using the Blackbullion website, we will get more than 500 pounds per year until our course is completed. I am very satisfied with my university, course and this country because they taught me a life like how to face problems, how to handle situations, and moreover how to survive in this world without anyone's help. Those who are planning to go abroad just remember one thing - simply don't trust anyone blindly. Learn yourself, then only you will understand our parents hardwork.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Not only I but many students who have recently graduated are facing immigration challenges. I am presently on a PSW visa and have attended several interviews. I was unsuccessful due to visa related reasons. Nowadays many companies are not willing to provide visa sponsorship for immigrants.
