- The University of Birmingham has ample of societies to cater the needs of different student interest and fields. There are societies which can help to develop important skill sets. There are social volunteering societies as well which can be added to the CV.
- There are alot of guest lectures and seminars which are field related which can help students to learn in depth in their field.
- Study and work assistance is provided through personal tutor, recorded digital resource on how to make good assignment, instant cv checker , online courses , assignment making related queries one on one meeting session, office hours with the professor and career events.
Dislikes
- As there is academic difference in India and UK, the expectation on the way of writing assignment is very different and higher here in University of Birmingham. This can sometime make things more difficult to adjust to the new way of writing assignments and many lead to less grades if the student hasn't figured out how to do the assignment their way.
- The grading given by professor is extremely strict and student has to go way over the line to get more 70 in each assignment. Usually most students don't get more than 75 in each assignment even after extreme efforts.
- There are some societies in the university of Birmingham which are extremely dull and not engaging as other societies.This creates discrepancy for students who are really passionate to join the society to learn something, contribute and gain some skill sets.
Course Curriculum
10
- The MA International Relations course difficulty level is moderate to high. It was both theoretical and practical in nature. There was one course with SPSS and STATA software usage.
- The best part was that the course was more student-based, wherein the students were given more opportunities to discuss with peers and come up with the conclusion of the given topic. It was very interactive. The negative part was the assignment being tougher than the class discussions.
- Rest were more theoretical and contemporary issue-based.
- I had 3-hour classes (2-hour class and 1-hour seminar), which were 3 classes per week. There is also an option to choose a non-credit foreign language (I chose Arabic level 2) so I had a 1-hour class per week for it. Total 10 hours per week.
- I had 64 students in the full-time course. There were 7 Indian students in the same course.
Fees
- My fee is 24,000 pounds paid in full installments. For food and other expenses I got 300 pounds per month. For hostel fees I paid 166 per week for 52 weeks (8,632 pounds for the entire year), which includes the utility bill.
- The university takes both full-year and semester-wise payments.
- My estimate for monthly expenses is 300 pounds, including groceries, transportation and regular expenses if utilised smartly with proper considerations. I applied for student accommodation so rent is paid in 9 installments of 1,015 pounds from September 2024 to April 2025 each month.
