- I chose this university as it comes in Top 100 universities in the world. Also the course modules were inline with my expectations and what I wanted to learn.,
- The study pattern, campus, and the influence of the university everywhere is very good. A Masters degree from my uni is considered very reputable( specific to my course). Better weather than other areas. Good transport links.
- Dislikes:
- Lack of cultural diversity. Not much to explore in the city. No direct job placements but it’s the same with other universities as well. Lack of modern architecture
The overall experience was good at my university. It fulfilled my expectations in most aspects. One downside is you don’t get a culturally diverse set of students. But it is specific to my course.

- Course structure, reviews from other students and University is the part of Russell group.,
- I really liked the course structure, it was well updated. We worked on different technologies like Hadoop, MongoDb, PyTorch, Machine learning and streamlit etc. There are many societies as well for machine learning, data science etc which will help you to do something out of the box. There are many challenges where they ask you to give any business idea and they give you monetary prizes. You can also go for student innovation projects where you work with a company and get some professional experience. You can also attend many events where real researchers discuss about their findings, I went to a session where Mark Nixon gave presentation and he is one of the renowned scientist in UK.
- Dislikes:
- There are no major points that I can talk about which I disliked about the university. There are very less job opportunities in UK, I believe that everyone is facing that issue so it is not very university specific thing. Placements were the only issue.
Overall experience in terms of quality of education is extremely good, course structure, staff, learning opportunities are wonderful. But from the placement perspective I can say it was not extremely good, in the economy like UK there are millions of people are trying to settle in this country whereas handful of them get the chance. To get a job with Tier 2 visa is extremely hard, I was lucky that I got one, but it is a real struggle. I advise everyone to get at least some work experience before coming here and prepare yourself to grind.
