MSc Economics - Batch of 2024

Good college with amazing experience.
Tips: I was awarded a scholarship that provided a tuition discount. I applied for the scholarship online, and the process was straightforward. There were some cultural adjustments, but the large Indian population made the transition easier. I am very satisfied with the University of Manchester, the course I took, and the country itself.
Likes (Public transportation): The city is well connected by bus and trams and has multiple railway stations. Cabs are also easily available. The campus is in the centre of the city, so it is well-connected. It is also a walking distance from the city centre. Public transport is very affordable and they offer passes too.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It all depends on whether you've got a job or not, and whether the company wants to sponsor a visa or not. The chances of permanent settlement are pretty slim as of now given the global scenario and slim job market. But if given a chance, I would like to settle in the UK, barring some cities.

Best experience and academically enriching journey at the University of Manchester.
Tips: I really enjoyed my time here at UoM. The faculty and administration are very supportive and approachable and always willing to help the students in need. Be prepared to adapt and make friends as it can be difficult initially to get used to the culture.

MSc Marketing - Batch of 2023
2.6
Think before you go, connect with people and get to hear the real journey
Tips: For my degree, I felt like it was an extension of my bachelor’s nothing new that I could learn massively to improve my skill set provided the money I had spent. I don’t think I was satisfied at all because the struggle throughout was really very difficult to cope with.
Likes (Public transportation): It’s well connected with cabs, trams and buses all across. There wasn’t any issue with commuting at all. It’s just very expensive to travel but as a student, you get discounts on travelling too so not a major reason. Rest assured you wouldn’t face an issue with this.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are very less jobs available who sponsor you and more than that you need exceptional skills to actually get a job. Even if you have PSW you need to be on top of your application game. So don’t just come directly after your bachelor’s take some experience and then come if you have long-term goals of settling.

3.9
A break from the corporate world with preparation for the real world.
Tips: There definitely is a cultural shift here that we face, and it is much better than home so it won't be an issue settling down. We should be prepared for the hard work. The university rankings matter but not a lot, so you are mostly on your own. There is no placement department or anything like that, so we are ourselves responsible for job hunting and everything, and as in every other country, it's not that easy to get a job. 
Likes (Student Life): The college community/student union has a lot of activities planned throughout the year, which really helps us lay off some streams from all the studies. Festivals, especially big ones like Diwali/Holi, are a lot of fun as all students get together and have fun. Student clubs are fun, but I wasn't able to participate a lot given the course structure and assignments. 
Dislikes (Part time work): There are part-time options available, but the course is a little tiring, which leaves very few windows for working. Having said that, there is a lot of competition given the number of students and dependents, so it is also hard to get a part-time job. Also, because of this competition, employers, specifically restaurants, exploit the students by paying them cash in hand, which is much lower than the minimum wage. But yes, I have a few friends who got a good part-time job, but such examples are pretty low.

A college to maximise your research skills and make good connections.
Tips: The courses offered by the University are research based. Be prepared to do a lot of research. Most of the people are Indians. The university offers job fairs to make connections with the employers. Start applying for the jobs as soon as you land and be prepared for virtual interviews.

AMBS failed to live up to its brand. Horrible cohort and curriculum. Wont recommend.
Tips: Research the modules well. MIM as a course has few opportunities in UK. Do a specialized Master. MIM more suitable for people willing to get into technology roles. MIM at AMBS is a waste. Please don't do it. Far better options are available. Do a specialized Master.
Likes (Part time work): Good amount of part time options available. Flexible shift options. Easy to manage part-time with academics. It pays minimum wage so easy to manage expenses since the city isn't that expensive. Walk-in interviews are available in plenty. Large city so not hard to find a job.
Dislikes (Value for money): The tuition fee was considerably higher compared to the quality of the course. Rigid curriculum. Only outdated theory and no practical exposure. Very average faculty and modules offered. No skill-building or live project options. Won't recommend the course.
