MSc Data Science - Batch of 2025

Offered by Newcastle University

Newcastle University provides great student life and friendly campus.

Tips: I got a scholarship directly from the university, which was a huge help. The professors are very nice and teach very well. They are willing to help anybody you just need to reach out to them. The university organizes many activities for students, which is great. It includes sports and activities, seminars, etc. Try to participate in them and build connections. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course, college and the country.

MSc Advanced Computer Science - Batch of 2025

Offered by Newcastle University

3.9

Newcastle University has solid engineering programs.

Tips: Before you join this college, do your research on the university and the city where you'll be studying. Find out about the job opportunities, and connect with the college alumni on LinkedIn. Start applying for part-time and full-time graduate or postgraduate roles as soon as possible.

Likes (Public transportation): There is good connectivity between buses and metro throughout the city and the fares are reasonable. If you want to get somewhere faster, you can always hail a cab. If you live close to the university or city centre, you can easily walk to many places. I have never faced any issues with travelling so far.

Dislikes (Part time work): Part-time jobs are hard to come by because there are a lot of students from Newcastle University and Northumbria University applying for the same jobs. To get a job, you need to be smart and have good interpersonal skills. It is also a good idea to start applying for jobs as soon as you settle into your accommodation.

MSc in Finance - Batch of 2024

Offered by Newcastle University

3.1

Try to gain relevant industrial skills.

Tips: It was quite a good experience as it was my first time experiencing education at an international level. Newcastle upon Tyne is a beautiful and student-friendly city. Most of the students got a scholarship worth 34000. The job market in Europe including the UK is stagnant right now. You are more likely to get a job if you have relevant industrial skills along with work experience. Great work experience + skills will get you a job.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty at the institution are quite helpful and possess good knowledge of their respective subjects. They are approachable and willing to assist students in resolving their doubts or queries that may arise. In the end, what matters most is how focused you are towards your goals.

Dislikes (Internships): The Master's programme is of 1 year duration so it is quite difficult to get an internship. Also, the Student Visa allows you to work for 20 hours/ week. You can work more during term time but it is hardly 1 month. So, getting an internship is a struggle.

The university is a great value for money with such talented and knowledgeable faculty.

Tips: I came from India, and I found the cultural differences to be quite drastic. The education system here is very different from India. However, I did receive the standard 2000 scholarship from Newcastle University. I found the people here to be very chill and friendly. I would advise new students to not be afraid to ask questions, as there are always people willing to help. The professors are extremely friendly and the faculty is very good. They will motivate you to succeed in your studies.

Likes (Value for money): The professors for my modules are very good. They are friendly and provide all the necessary information if a student has doubts. The fee for my course is definitely justified because the environment of study that this university provides for us is outstanding. Our lectures are mostly in Urban Sciences, Fredrick Douglass & Herschel Building. Urban Sciences Building is 10/10, the Fredrick Douglass Building is 8/10, and the Herschel Building is 7/10. Other than that, the university ambience is quite peaceful, and the staff is very welcoming.

Dislikes (Indian Food): As a student, you don't have much time to cook for yourself. Eating outside will cost you. Because of this, you will be more inclined towards eating good food less frequently. From my experience, I still haven't found any good and affordable place to get Indian food. I have tried 'Dhabe Wale's Aloo Paratha but it wasn't that good. It cost me around 6 pounds with Lassi.

Msc Supply chain and Logistics course review in Newcastle University

Tips: Students should first know that it is going to be a huge cultural shift in terms of education and living. They have different grading styles and a lot of group projects. Even the exams are grade different than in India. Keywords and on-point are preferable rather than filling up the page. Scholarships are hard to get but very educative. They can help you financially as well if you can secure one. Scholarships are usually fewer in number so highly competitive but many international students get that if they can submit compelling essay. Overall experience was average because the UK market is competitive in terms of securing full-time jobs in your area. College does have many fair but it is tough for Masters courses when you don't have enough experience.

Likes (Public transportation): Newcastle has very good connectivity in terms of bus and metro. There would be a lot of options available all the time specifically towards the University which is right in the city centre. So for each ride, it costs you 2 pounds on the bus. But there are several cheaper ticket options available where you can take a monthly or weekly bus pass for that particular zone and can travel an infinite number of times. The secret part that not many know is that the university provides a bus pass to students for free travel. You just have to mail them and they will send you a coupon code to avail of that. It is valid throughout your university time.

Dislikes (Part time work): In the beginning, we went to many job fairs that represented us with part-time jobs in university but those were extremely competitive and applications would be in 1000's against very few openings. Part-time jobs are manageable in terms you being flexible and willing to work after classes and ready to work on weekends. Weekends are a good option to manage both expenses and your studies. The average payout right now is 11.44 GBP per hour which is quite decent for expenses every month if you can work the full 20 hours per week.
