BSc in Psychology - Batch of 2025

Offered by Cardiff University

Multidimensional experience and advanced concepts.

Tips: You will feel lonely and it is hard to adjust but know that the university has a lot of services and resources to help you adjust better. Try and be more social in the first few weeks to break inhibitions and join social for the first year as much as possible. The university is known to have a good student community and it stands by it. There is something for everyone on the campus from club nights to arts and crafts events. Very buzzing campus. The city centre is vibrant and has many activities to do. It is not impossible to find part-time work in the city, but it is difficult. You need to look in the right places. You can look for opportunities on or off campus. In the city centre, there are many opportunities for casual or permanent work. Overall, I am certainly satisfied with my experiences.

MSc in Sustainable Mega-Buildings - Batch of 2022

Offered by Cardiff University

Fun and filled with challenges!

Tips: Everything depends on your mindset and willingness to adjust, its not gonna be easy at all! Every course has some scholarships for international students. There will be lots of cultural shifts, they will change you as a person. I am satisfied with the course/country 7.5 on a scale of 1-10.

Likes (Post study jobs): Not many companies would want to give you a sponsored visa if you don't have work experience in the UK depending on your niche, sponsored jobs can vary from 4-6% (i.e only that % of your course strength might actually land in a sponsored job).

Dislikes (Part time work): In this economy and high rate of immigrants, finding a job part-time isn't that easy. It might take you a few months 3-6 depending on your applications and effort. You can earn about 700-800 3 per month if you work 20 hrs per week. Very manageable with studies if you're a hard worker.

Data Science and Analytics (MSc) - Batch of 2023

2.6

The struggle is real. Not fit for freshers, come with experience.

Tips: The course was pretty basic. So I think just know how to struggle. I am not satisfied with the course and country due to bad situations. Also, housing crisis is going on. No scholarships were provided. Cultural shift is real. Please don't come if you are fresher. They charge for graduate VISA as well. Now they have increased the fee to 3000 pounds.

Likes (Student Life): Overall student life is fun. There are Bollywood parties, you can play football in the park and enjoy with your friends roaming in the UK. There are multiple events like diwali, holi for Indian students. Also, lot more things, you can play cricket, go to trips etc.

Dislikes (Value for money): No part time jobs are available. No professional jobs, as a fresher, you need 1-3 years of experience. You should not come to UK for I think the next 3 years. Also, teaching is okayish. Don't come if you are expecting salaries like USA. You have to buy graduate Visa for 3000 which is valid for 2 years. Public transportation buses are cheap, trains are costly.

Cardiff University is amazing in terms of study and student life.

Tips: The transition was very smooth, my peers and teachers were very friendly and I was able to make amazing friends. I had a scholarship for academic excellence (90% in 10th and 85% in 12th). It was a scholarship of fee education by 33000. My University caters to my every need, the faculty on my course is spectacular and Cardiff is very easy to travel in and amazing for student life.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty are all very experienced, pioneers of their fields, friendly and helpful with students. There is so much to learn from them. We have office hours for doubt clarification and professors frequently reply to all your doubts by email. The teaching method is very interactive and makes the subject really interesting, the professors like using real life examples to connect us with the concept. The faculty is very diverse and they are friendly.

Dislikes (Value for money): The international fees is obviously quite a lot but you do get some very good opportunities and interact with some of the leading researchers in Physics which kind of makes it worth it. The fee is reasonable compared to other UK universities and hence provides fairly decent value for money.

3.1

Open minded, understanding and student friendly university.

Tips: The course is very interesting, and I am enjoying the variety of modules that help me understand the field in and out. However, the on-campus accommodation is very expensive, very far from the university, and very small. I would highly recommend taking off-campus accommodation, either student housing or private accommodation, as they are more spacious and price-friendly. I also received a scholarship for my first year of 2000 pounds. Scholarships are available for all years of study, provided you score first class. The country is not very welcoming, the locals are racist, and the weather is always depressing. You rarely see the sun. I am satisfied with my university experience at Cardiff University.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The professors at Cardiff University are very nice and always willing to help students. They are approachable if you schedule an appointment in advance. However, unlike in India, where students are used to being spoon-fed every detail before an assignment, here you are expected to do your own research and then come up with your own solution. This approach helps develop critical thinking and patience, which I appreciate and find to be a unique aspect of this university. On the downside, the faculty is not very diverse; they are all white, with no black, Chinese, or Indian professors.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): It is very difficult to get a job in the media field as a fresher. None of the companies were willing to offer me a job unless I got a work visa. The average salary offered by the company in this field is 24,000, which is not enough at all. Many jobs for administration and part-time bartenders and waitresses are being offered, but only a few professional jobs are available. Hardly any company would give you a job for who you are as an international student. If you're extraordinarily smart and confident, you might land a few interviews. But none of the companies want to give a chance to international students.
