MSc Management (Business Analytics) - Batch of 2025

Offered by Swansea University

4.5

Safest city for students. Focus on work and tasks assigned to you.

Tips: Students coming should know the difference in education between India and Western countries. Understand the structure of your course modules in order to improve your overall work and studies. Work on assignments and projects as soon as you receive them instead of leaving them last minute.

Likes (Safety): One of the safest cities in this country. A small and bustling town, it is very quiet and safe to travel in even at night. However certain amount of caution must always be observed. Staying in groups at night or using public transportation is a good way to keep vigilance.

Dislikes (Part time work): Not enough part time opportunities in the city and University. Yet there are multiple job opportunities being created by the University. Will need time but slowly and surely everyone can get part-time opportunities if they are patient enough. Very important to create connections.

Life at Swansea University is satisfying in terms of both academics and personal growth.

Tips: As for transitioning to Swansea University, it's common to face a cultural shift, with the difference in language, food, social customs, and academic expectations. Regarding scholarships, Swansea University offers various scholarship opportunities for international students based on merit. I find the University, course fulfilling.

Likes (Safety): It is safe to be in and around the university at any time of the day. There are bus services throughout the night available for students who study late at night in the university library. I have not had any bad experiences in the city so far.

Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transport is not always reliable, but the frequency is good. You have various buses going to and fro from the Singleton campus to the Bay campus. The prices are confirmed to be increased from next month, which is a big setback for students.

MSc Advanced Computer Science - Batch of 2023

4.1

Fantastic experience. And it's worth to study in Swansea University

Tips: There is quite a change which is good. Studies are more oriented in practical form and a cultural shift is definitely there. Coming from North Indian spending a-lot of time with south Indian and multi-culture communities from all around the world was quite good, knowing their culture and accommodating with open-minded people, was one of the best experiences I've seen and felt in a while. Scholarships are available for Swansea University to attain a 4000 scholarship by doing proper research. My satisfaction level from the university is 90/100, from the course 100/100, and from the country, it completely depends on how you handle situations, for me it is 100/100.

Likes (Safety): People, staff, teachers are quite helpful, they have a quite good hold on the mental health of the students, as well as teachers keep their students quite comfortable and are always at ease to help. Security is quite good. They also have regular security checks on people in the day and night as well, running throughout the campus. I have stayed at university late night till 3 am also and did not feel unsafe at all.

Dislikes (Internships): Internship facilities are not exclusively available through the campus, we need to search on website manually from time to time. No other facility are provided by the campus on their own in the form of emails or any particular dedicated job web page on the university web page. That was a little off-set part. But teaching methods and examination are kept quite good in control to develop skills through-out the year.

Great university to do Masters in.

Tips: The difficult level is not easy, you have to put great effort into the assignments and subjects to get good grades. They have scholarships. The course itself is satisfying. The place is lush with greenery and has a private beach just next to the campus.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members are really helpful and informative. They teach very well and support us with our queries in the support sessions conducted every week. They guide us in our projects and assignments. The facilities are also par. You have a fully equipped 24/7 library.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): For permanent immigration, you will have a get a sponsored job soon. Most companies do not offer sponsored jobs. Even after getting a sponsored job, we would have to work for another 5 years to get PR. Given a chance, I would like to permanently immigrate to this country. The country offers good value for the work we do.

4.1

Swansea University is a good college.

Tips: Be prepared to have a cultural shock and for cold and the weather. Be polite and kind with greeting people. There is a completely different studying pattern here than what we have in India. University culture is a bit different and many events take place all the time.

Likes (Safety): The city is quite safe and friendly. The people are kind and welcoming. The place is absolutely safe even at night times. There are people to help always if you ever need help. The people are very accommodating to you. It feels like home in a few months and a lovely place to live in.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): It's hard to find sponsored jobs with post-study visa. Most of the companies are not willing to hire based on PSW. So if you want sponsored jobs, it is hard to find jobs that you like. But people get jobs with just PSW too but no sponsorship. So in the end it depends on what type of job you want.
