- The university is in central London, location is easily accessible.
- Fee is affordable and less comparable to other's Uni. However, the difference is not significant but still less fee.
- During my term campus was flooded with Asian students but still it was diverse and had a chance to interact with real international students.
Dislikes
- The infrastructure is really old and needs an upgrade.
- Career support is minimal, and no training and internships are available.
- The counselling team provide support but it's really insignificant.
Placement
Do not expect much but definitely, uni appreciates talent and skills and offers suitable roles within campus to such people. However, depends upon vacancy.
My reasons were to go for the cheapest options as I wanted to sponsor my education on my own. Overall was good, I learned a lot and made some awesome friends. To be honest I was an average student with not much corporate Industry experience, getting a UK visa was easier for me as it's an English-speaking country with lots of opportunities and easier to get access for friends and family. Talking about the extracurricular opportunities there are a lot of options available to go for outings and do sporting events which I really enjoy exploring.

- I chose this university on main points like; Excellent website information about each and every course and course design for entire academic year Chat option with student ambassadors for the course so new comers could ask all the beginning questions Open information on previous successful placements and the student information Latest infrastructure with lots of lab / computing equipment Personal space for students who are working for group projects or working alone Long library hours (10am to 9pm) Online recorded classes and online appointments for ease of learning Lending laptops free of cost for students who can't afford laptops. Lots of fun activities and events Accepts only 50-60 students per year As a food science graduate its worth every penny studying at London metropolitan University. For those who are science based, there's excellent science Center for only LABS University is located right in front of tube station
- Course design, resources like computer and laptops. Lab equipment. Film making equipment (high end) studios etc. Polite lecturers. Polite student reps. Time to time change in course structure. Cheap printing cost
Dislikes
- I don't like the fact that it's in London. London is expensive to live ;) I don't have any more complaints May be the tuition fee is a bit high compared to others
Placement
One industry visited and paid PhD programs for continuity students. Placements happen through the careers department, where we need to register from the beginning and approach for help.
Excellent experience with education. I recommend all my friends this university all the time.
Likes
- Due to its Ranking and the biggest reason is course and country.
- Infrastructure, environment and teaching.
Dislikes
- No job placement only.
Placement
No, I haven’t received any job yet after passing out through my university. Even I tried and I have experience but still no one response back to me . No , not a single student get placed from my batch I know.
This was my first international degree and it was really good . I saw and experience all new things first time in my life . If I talked from infrastructure to passing out my journey was incredible . Only thing I like to mention that I haven’t get any job through my university .

- As a student pursuing the Master's program in Food Science at London Metropolitan University, I have to say it is indeed a very satisfying experience. Our labs, comprising a wide array of workstations, feature state-of-the art equipment from industry partners such as Fisher et al. The lab is also frequented by researchers and industry academics for grant-related research and other scientific investigations. My course leader, Mr. Ghadduusi, is a veteran in the industry with considerable expertise in dairy spanning 20 years, now consulting for the UK Food Standards Agency. A gentleman, who is very affable, constantly motivating me to achieve the extraordinary.The classes and overall vibe is very positive, with colleagues from very different backgrounds and cultures, truly a beacon for multiculturism. Most of our faculty are very renowned, especially Mr. Abdi, principal head of the Institute of Food Science and Technology, nutritionist. My only downside with the university is the lack of co-curricular activities and high fees, so to speak. All in all, a solid 4/5.
- In my research for the best life-sciences university, I found London Met to the the perfect choice owing to its very highly experienced lab and faculty, very affable, always with an endearing smile. The lecture sessions are always full of energy , with excellent engagement from all students, always asking questions, which gets rectifies almost immediately. 4/5
Dislikes
- Lack of student clubs and other fraternities. There is no proper leadership in student programs and other cultural events. Also, sometimes the catering is also not upto expectations.
Placement
The UK has one of the worlds largest food industries, with market share of around 15%, which is the largest in UK. The industries here range primarily in dairy, meat and poultry, alcohol, bakery and confectionary. Alumni of London Met have gone to work in the Big Food companies, primarily market leaders such as diversified Nestle, dairy behemoth Danone etc and also have launched successful ventures such as the Twisted Kombucha, a fermented tea with a twist.
Overall, it's an amazing place to be. To engage in meaningful experiences with highly renowned faculty, a powerful network full of opportunities and a lab that is frequented primarily for cutting-edge innovation. I, as a student, aim to be proactive in guided learning, listening to feedback, all with the purpose of achieving tremendous personal growth.

- Admission criteria, course structure, Course fee and EMI facility
- It's process of exam it's different from general, it's more of Assessment based that helps you gather more knowledge, do lot of research, drilling on specific topic.
Dislikes
- I actually don't dislike anything about my university as it depends on the who wants to study and gain a degree, if all facilities of education are available then no complaint should be there
Placement
It's is good as they provide placement and internship offer from different organisations, company which will give an initial push which is needed in the starting phase after course completion
It's a place where you will be able to learn as much as u want
