- The timings for lectures are flexible. There are hardly 3-5 lectures in a week for 2-3 hrs / day. This gives you time to work part-time and prepare well for the lectures.
- During my course, a lot of emphasis was on research. The essay topics were neutral and there was no right or wrong answer. The marking was dependent on your research, clarity of thoughts, style of argument etc., The feedback by lecturer was also transparent.
- Durham is very cheap in terms of accommodation costs. When you compare with QMUL, you will easily save 8-10 lakhs in terms of accommodation expenses.
Dislikes
- Nothing much really. However, now when you consider the cost, they become a huge factor. A lot of my friends were not able to land a job, which made them come back to India and with the salaries which were offered not much of the fees could be recovered. However, I did manage to crack at a law firm, where I could easily repay my education loan.
- Lastly, the system is quite liberal so if you expect very difficult studies, examinations or passing then you will be under the wrong presumption.
Course Curriculum

- The difficulty was very less. The positive aspect is that it is practical and research based. You need not mug up.
- You are given a PPT by the professor which you need to read before the lectures. The lectures are more of a discussion type.
- The negative aspect is that the difficulty level is very less. As a masters programme I thought it would be more complex. Since its open to graduates from other fields. They keep the difficulty level low.
- The average no. of students in a lecture depends on how many students have enrolled for the subject. It is typically 25-30 students but some common subjects may even have 60 students.
Fees
-
The total expense was roughly 25 Lakhs. The Break-up would be:
Tuition Fee: 13 lakhs
Accommodation (excluding food): 8-10 lakhs -
Monthly expense would be around 300-400 pounds. Since I had a job from a beginning I could easily manage my finances. If you are staying anywhere in London rent would a huge expense. There was no travelling expense as everything was at a walking distance.
For eg. Renting cost in east London would be 150-200 pounds / week. The same rent in a small city like Durham would be 80-120 pounds / week

- Research focused: we have papers/modules to learn about how to conduct international level research, what tools and tricks we need, types and reasons for research and so on
- Resources: We have free access to almost all journals, academic portals and publications both offline and online. Our libation is also well equipped with all academic resources, 24/7 operational, books can be demanded for free as well if not available. Professors are available via email or in office hours for anything. Welfare and support staff is also available in each college and department. And of-course state of art infrastructure and technology, year abroad schemes etc.
- Collegiate: Durham University comprises of multiple colleges and each student is assigned a college randomly on admission. That college becomes the home and first socialising place for most students. All students attend events there and represent it on a university level. This collegiate system is different from academic spaces where students from all colleges come together.
Dislikes
- Reputation for being elitist: There is tendency for many students to be from affluent backgrounds to join Durham for its traditionalist and thus university has gained a reputation for being “snob” and “elite” which is not particularly true and depends from person to person.
- Archaeology fieldwork: The Archaeology department thought ranked top 4 in the entire world rarely provides actual field work except, specifically for masters students and scholars are just taught research.
- Complicated Information infrastructure: Though it gets easier over time, days are filled with confusion regarding LearnUltra blackboard, Microsoft account, Outlook mail and so on.

- The difficulty is high as even though for masters we don’t have examinations, we have summative or submissions which are entirely researched based and should be new work and not plagiarised and there are multiple summative for each module.
- Positive: Great faculty who are experts in their fields
- Negative: Lack of fieldwork
- 2-3 days a week I have my classes. Typically 2-3 classes a day. Time depends on modules. My classes start from 11 and end at 4:30 but I have gaps in between. But I know people who start classes at 9 AM and end at 5 PM, with hours long gaps in between.
- 10-15 people per class, in tutorials can even be one on one or max to max 4-5 students
- Only two. (Archaeology)
Fees
-
My fee structure:-
26900 GBP: Tuition Fee
5000: Scholarship awarded to me
21900: Fee paid8000-12350 (depends on type of room provided): Accommodation, Private accommodation price varies.
-
Estimate of monthly expenses: 300 GBP ( It can go upto 350-400 GBP if I travel in UK)
-
Fees can be paid all at once or in 3 installments through Debit/Credit card, Direct Debit, International transfer and so on.

- Durham comes under very few universities which comes under collegiate system, where all colleges are based upon different cultures and historic events. Basically these colleges are accommodations which students choose according to their preference. All colleges host formal dinners events, balls in their own traditions.
- Matriculation event, one of the best event which takes place in the Durham cathedral, which is one of the oldest cathedral in UK. In this event, one of the student who is the representative for all other students is asked to sign against their batch year and all the students are officially announced as students of Durham University.
- About the academic part of the university, there’s a reason Durham University ranks so high. University has many societies like finance society, marketing society, law society, etc, for students to take part im different events and also where companies come to tell about organisations, work culture and also we can connect with them on LinkedIn and network with a lot of people. DUFS(Durham University Finance Society) is considered as UK’s one of the biggest finance club. Where students also help us enhance our resume, they guide us through applications, interview processes while applying for a job or an internship. Also, we are taken for many industry visits, they arrange guest speakers for us who are founders, directors of big companies. Like we had an interaction with Houlihan Lokey’s managing director and then we were also taken at Nissan’s factory where we literally saw a car built from nothing to the whole car getting taking a test drive which was an amazing experience.
Dislikes
- As a pure jain vegetarian person, it is difficult for me to see non vegetarian food getting cooked. And as I have taken an ensuite(room with only personal washroom) room, my kitchen is sharing with 4 other flatmates(3 Chinese, 1 Bangladeshi) so I am trying to blend in with them. So those who are pure vegetarian and if can afford to rent a studio room should go for that or else be prepared to cook vegetarian food besides other cooking non-vegetarian food.
- Other problem that I face is that as the transport in UK is expensive like they charge £1.5 a day bus pass for the whole Durham which is quite expensive so we usually all prefer to walk only. The business school is like 25-30 mins walk from my college, so the main problem is not walking that is quite the nice as we’re doing something healthy regularly. The main problem is the uphill and downhill part. The whole city is uphill and downhill which makes it quite difficult to walk.
- Another problem that I faced was that as my admission was in September intake, I came on 25th September, that time it was rainy. But later on during late Octobers and the whole winter, it starts to get dark at 4 p.m. and you see sunrise quite less, like once or twice in a week. Which sometimes gets a little depressing kind of. Many students even eat Vitamin-D pills due to lack of sunlight.

- My course management was particularly medium difficulty level course and that was because some of the concepts I had already studied in my undergraduate studies, as NMIMS’s course module is very advanced. For other students many things were quite new. My course was more theoretical and we had some practical experiences like factory visits and guest speakers.
- Positive aspects include comprehending knowledge from real-life experiences, like guest speakers telling about how they built their company, how they are running it. That was an amazing way to understand business and learning about its pros and cons, where as negative aspects could be all the theoretical learning as personally I don’t like reading and learning and as my course was management so I had to.
- It depends upon the subject, like the core subject for all management students that include general management, management and supply chain and management and international business have 5 core subjects out of which 4 in term 1 and 1 in term 2 and then we need to choose 3 electives according to our course so the electives class have less students compared to core subjects.
- In my course there are many Indian students, around 25-50 students in all management courses (general, supply chain, IB, marketing and finance).
Fees
- The tuition fee I’m paying is £31,500. My living fee, which includes only my rent, is £9250 for 50 weeks.
- I paid £2000 in the beginning as my advanced tuition fee and £400 advance rent to confirm my seat and my accommodation. I have to pay both tuition and living expenses in 3 installments. 1st we have already paid in December, next in February, and last in May.
- In my monthly expense, I pay £740 rent(which is paid in 3 instalments to the university, not monthly). I do not have particularly any transportation cost as Durham is a small county so we mainly prefer to walk and other living expenses include groceries, other events like Bollywood parties, techno parties or our own house parties that all sums upto around £200-300. Out of which groceries are necessities which cost upto £150-200. Rest are extra cost like occasional shopping, parties, events, etc.

- The university has a great Environment, it’s very much peaceful and silent, the one required to study
- The university has great Infrastructure, the classes and buildings are humongous
- The People here are very much kind and polite
Dislikes
- The Teaching system is not good as it is displayed by the university
- The professors are good enough in knowledge but not in teaching
- The curriculum is not set as per to increase knowledge level of the students but just to show it on a degree
Fees
- The fee structure is divided into 3 parts: first, at the end of term 1; second, at the end of term 2; and third, at the end of term 3. The same goes for college accommodation. Mine was 32750 for college and 9250 for accommodation in total.
On average, if spent meaningfully, 200 pounds a month would be enough to survive a month. The travel is mostly done on foot or one can also take a bus, which is just 1.5 pounds for a whole day or 1 pound for a single trip. Uber can also be taken but it’s very much costly, nearing to 8-10 pounds for a single normal trip of 1.5 miles
- I found my accommodation on the college website itself, as I booked for a university-owned and controlled accommodation, Ustinov College. All the basic facilities are provided; the rooms are good enough as per the student. It also has a common area with leisure activities and a bar. Yaa, Ustinov is a good accommodation; it’s centrally located from the academic buildings and the city centre; my monthly rent for an en-suite is here 9250.
A good no. Of Indians live here, 30-35.

I feel it is very updated. They make necessary changes from time to time. They take regular feedbacks and work on that feedback seriously.
