- College is good, but it needs to work on how placement functions.
- There are platforms, and even the university provides facilities. Whatsapp groups are available. I paid 75000 rupees per annum but increase by 5000 every year electricity extra and water also. i took the room from a friend who was leaving.

- Just to clarify, my course was jointly taught by 2 universities, UoB and UWE. and is managed by UoB. each of these universities have their own pros and cons.
- Both of these university had good infra, campus, and all the required facilities.
Dislikes
- Yet both of them lag in teaching. I will say the learning I got from these two is 2/10.
- UoB's student accommodation. I had to pay 1000 pounds per month. ensuite room, pool, and common room.

- I like the part where the university take good care of its student and how diverse Is the university which could to meet people and make friends across the world. It offers good life around it many clubs, unions and events.
Dislikes
- I didn’t like the part where university provides its masters courses only just for one year and how complicated it can be to understand its career service centre, and its short staff for career services for around 30000 students they literally around 20-30 people that’s it which is bad actually.
- Actually, the university was very helpful to students to get their accommodations sorted, but it was very competitive, as there were plenty of international students coming from across the world.
- I would recommend students start this accommodations part very early, as it is also very hard to find a place in Bristol. The monthly budget depends upon what you can afford; it varies from 650 to 1500 pounds as well.

- Latest curriculum: when compared to my college in undergraduate the curriculum over here seems it gets revised a lot frequently
- State of the art facilities and labs: we have a lot of latest equipment in the lab
- Diverse international student community: There are people from all around the world
Dislikes
- Limited practical industry exposure compared to the academic focus: Compared to other courses which have capstone project done with industry we dont have that exposure
- Availability of specialized electives in emerging areas: there are no electives in this course at least for me so choose your program wisely
- Limited flexibility in tailoring modules to individual career goals: you expect this as you are paying so much and everyone says that foreign academics are the best
- So there is the university's portal to find accommodation if you want to opt in for that. you can choose from various accommodations that the university has and then you put in your preferences and they give you a decision based on that.
- My monthly rent was around 900 pounds per month and the facilities include a gym and a snooker table, there are 2 common areas where you can hang out, and there are also various events that are organised by the accommodation team.
- The accommodation process is pretty straightforward; you just put your preferences based on the places you like and that's it.
- For future students the advice i can give them is just don't look at the distances from the campus; also consider that Bristol is quite hilly so maybe you check the elevation from google maps because this happened to me. my place is around a 20 mins walk from uni but i have to climb a hill, which is a pain.
- In my accommodation there are a lot of Asians; it's called print hall. But, the students are usually evenly divided based on the preferences they like

- Rich history, buildings, reputation.
Dislikes
- Could have better university accommodation especially for postgrad students
- Could have better harmonized University events rather than scattered events.
- Academic timelines can be adjusted but guess its same across all Unis in the UK so fair.
- People in industry-related courses find it easier to get jobs and it is a major advantage if you have related work experience.
- However, it could be quite difficult depending on the job market these days. You could go without a full-time job for months and even those with full-time jobs are usually in start-ups. It depends on the job market and the above comments are in relation to the year 2024-25.

- I like that my course at the University of Bristol, had learned professors who had a lot of expertise in their subject and also an experience on how to teach the subject. They always linked theoretical knowledge with practical examples which helped to understand how is the theoretical knowledge linked with the practical implementations in real life.
- There were sufficient assignments given to us, along with synchronous and asynchronous classes and materials to gain more knowledge in all aspects.
- We were also provided with the names of books that were easily found in the library and e-books were also available for free from the library which helped a lot to get comprehensive details on the subject we were studying.
Dislikes
- There were language barriers sometimes where the professors were not able to be comprehensive about what they wanted to teach.
- What I didn't like was mostly that it was quite expensive. Even printouts were not free and took some amount and I being a person who wants hard copies of stuff, was facing some difficulties.
- There were not many practical sessions to get better practical exposure.
The University of Bristol was my second choice in terms of what university I should choose since it was the second best university in my course as it is very famous for engineering. I liked that it is one of the red brick universities since it is very reputed to be in the red brick universities. Moreover, it was in Bristol, which is a very beautiful place to be in. The curriculum intrigued me since all the subjects were that I wanted to study. I have a B.Tech degree in Electronics and Communication and 3.5 years of experience as a software engineer in networking. Thus, I had an interest in getting theoretical knowledge in computer networks, and I saw my curriculum matching all courses I was expecting to learn to bridge the gap between the practical and theoretical expertise that I wanted to acquire. I thus accepted my offer of admission. My overall experience at the university was more than hopeful. I got to learn so much, including studies and extracurriculars, talking to various people from all parts of the world, and living with each other with fun and laughter. People in the university being so helpful, motivating, and persuading me to reach my goal helped me reach new heights. It has built confidence in me, and it feels like a dream coming true.

- It has a very reputable image and part of prestigious community plus it is a top 9th University in Bristol.
Dislikes
- One aspect of my college/university experience that I find particularly challenging is the lack of flexibility in the curriculum. Many of the courses are structured in a rigid manner, leaving little room for exploration or customization based on individual interests or career goals. This limited flexibility can be frustrating, especially for students who seek to delve deeper into specific subjects or pursue interdisciplinary studies. Additionally, the scheduling of classes and availability of elective courses often pose constraints, making it difficult to create a well-rounded educational experience. Furthermore, the bureaucratic processes within the institution can sometimes hinder efficient communication and problem-solving, leading to delays and inefficiencies in academic matters. Overall, while I appreciate the resources and opportunities provided by my college/university, I believe that greater flexibility and adaptability in the curriculum and administrative processes would greatly enhance the learning experience for students.
My experience was good, overall it was worth going there, but I find that the experience counts more than the studies.

- I chose UoB for its QS Ranking credibility and Alumni placement ratio.
- The fact that it gave me access to the UK workforce & the economy, the course also allowed me to pursue a subject that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to in India as I needed a business degree to study business further.
Dislikes
- The course was not academically challenging enough and not much substantial learning came out of it. All lectures were online and only 2-3 seminars in person. The class wasn't too diverse either affecting the quality of commination as everyone's ability to communicate in English was not at par
Having done an intensive and research driven undergrad I did not find the course academically challenging, the lectures were around the topics that I already knew, did not have much support from my dissertation mentor that affected my overall degree result. Overall the degree only seemed to equip me with the access to the UK job economy and the cost did not justify the results.
