The college location is absolutely amazing!

Tips: College is in the heart of the city so everything is nearby. I have personally never faced any sort of problem around the university. All the facilities are there, the City center and train station are nearby. Connectivity is good, students are from diverse backgrounds and there are many clubs. I have participated in some dancing and singing events organised by the Indian student community and it was good. 2000 pounds scholarship in the beginning is received.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty is very friendly and course curriculum is also designed well. Procurement management was my favourite subject. Faculty also guides you with the dissertation part but don't expect much. Hybrid mode is also available

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Manchester is no doubt an international city for business and there are opportunities just that right opportunity needs to be taken at the right time. The B-school has top rated Supply chain course and does carry a value but out there in market, it should be proved by individuals. J&J, Proctor and gamble and Unilever are some companies that want fresh graduates of Supply Chain Management for their inventory management.

MSc in Clinical Skills In Integrative Psychotherapy - Batch of 2023

Student friendly and amazing for international students.

Tips: There’s a scholarship for everyone. So checking that out before applying would be nice. Many times scholarship shows up automatically if you’re eligible but you should definitely check it on the official website to get a better one or just to understand how it works.

Likes (Value for money): They support you a lot as an international student. There are many trips, events, food arrangements done even free utensils have been given. There are a lot of events at the university and you should never miss one of them. There’s a lot of opportunities to make friends and meet new people.

Dislikes (Part time work): They do arrange fairs for part-time jobs but not everyone gets through it. So to always have more options by going to the close by mall with your physical CV would be a good idea, I would also suggest downloading the flex app that’s for part-timers but it’s flexible as you can just apply for one 5-hour shift to complete it and earn with no commitments as you have your university going.

MSc Data Science - Batch of 2023

Offered by Manchester Metropolitan University

Struggle is real, keep working

Tips: There are no exams for computer science courses, only assignments and dissertations, any similarity in your assignment with your friends may result in misconduct. A general scholarship of 3500£ is given to everybody. Lecturers won't teach you deep into the topic, only introduce it to you and then it's all on you. Getting a part-time in Manchester is quite tough now, after covid the number of people coming to UK has increased drastically and all prices have gone up including rent and daily expenses.

Likes (Public transportation): There are many buses coming from all over the place to Piccadilly Gardens from where it's only a 15 mins walk to the university. But the fare is 2£ fixed no matter where you get down, And the student bus pass is below 26 and costs you around 58£ per month, but the stagecoach bus pass is cheaper and more convenient.

Dislikes (Internships): The university basically has their own two or three sites which they provide you during induction and ask you to search for a job. Even after applying for 100+ internships where every single form takes upto 40 mins, we do not receive any response. Even if we get a response it will be after 2/3 and mostly a response stating that you could not make it. The placement opportunities provided by most of the companies have only one vacancy and the number of applications comes in 10k.

Overall, academic career will be best after study.

Tips: It's a bit hard to survive according to weather conditions but not much. At first, I was scared to come outside but now I am habituated to it. The university provides 3000 pounds international scholarship for every student. Also, you will have a chance to get 1000 pounds scholarship via vice chancellor scholarship opportunity. I can give 5 stars to my university and 4 stars for the country.

Good university with a good curriculum but racism is the issue.

Tips: If you are prepared to be treated how our ancestors have been treated by the British empire only then come and join this university. Curriculum is amazing and so are the job opportunities you get while pursuing your degree, but the only problem is that racism is very high.

Likes (Post study jobs): I have not yet cleared my Masters. But many of my senior friends have almost got jobs which are high paying. They are able to repay their education loans by themselves and make a good amount of money which they are sending it to their home countries.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): I have rated this low because I have experienced racism in this college. Racism exists.

Master of Architecture (MArch)
at
Manchester Metropolitan University
Highlights

The MArch is a lively student-centered environment, where peer-to-peer learning, practice-based research, and live events projects connect students, expert academics, design professionals and wider communities
On this course that is jointly run by The University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University, students will enjoy the benefit from the resources and expertise of both institutions.
During the MArch, students will develop, expand, and refine their design and theoretical skills whilst creating a portfolio that will enable them to find employment in a leading architecture practice.
The studio element of the course is delivered through research-driven clusters called ateliers that align strong areas of research activity and mutual interests via trios of staff.
This will enable students to develop ideological positions that are critically underpinned by seminars, workshops, and symposiums.
