BA English and Film - Batch of 2026

The faculty is very friendly and the classes are very interactive and engaging.
Tips: I have grown as a person, become more independent, and more mature since entering university. There were some cultural shocks and differences, but mostly how kind and accepting most people were. That feels like the norm now. I did not receive any scholarships, but I am very satisfied with my university experience.
Likes (Safety): I have a very active social life at the University of Birmingham. I spend my time studying, attending class, and working out at the gym. If I have any energy left, I like to go out with friends. There are many social events on campus that I can attend. The student body is very diverse, and everyone is kind and accepting of everyone else. The staff is very helpful and always there to support and talk to new students.
Dislikes (Student Life): The staff at the University of Birmingham are very kind and helpful. The university is incredibly inclusive and diverse, and the staff is very attentive to everyone's problems. The faculty does its best to offer fruitful solutions and help students and staff in the best way they can. The staff is very diverse and well spread out.

Thriving at the Univeristy of Birmingham: Independence, diversity, and opportunity.
Tips: As for the University of Birmingham, it is a great university that prepares you well for the world where you are no longer a kid who only has to worry about grades. Coming here has taught me to be independent financially and mentally. The campus is very diverse which lets me immerse in different cultural experiences. The student union is always there to support you from safety to mental well-being. The University also celebrates every cultural festival from Diwali to Ramadan, which never gives you the feeling of a home away from home. I did secure an academic scholarship for my course which is funded by the university themselves. Although the cost of living is quite high at the moment. But other than that, this is an amazing opportunity for me where I get to do a course I love at an exceptional Russel group university at the heart of Birmingham that offers all the support and advice.
Likes (Internships): The University has a huge careers network, with each college having its own. They provide excellent one-to-one advice on getting work experience, internships, volunteering, full-time jobs, etc. They also provide several other services like mock interviews that prepare you for the real challenge in the application process. For students with zero or very limited experience, the University offers a programme called B-Experienced, through which internships provided by companies offer special spots for students from the University of Birmingham. Hence when it comes to work experience and career in general, the University of Birmingham is a great choice.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The current UK government has tightened immigration policies, which might make permanent immigration options a bit harder. Also, if you secure a good job in a company that is ready to sponsor you, then that's great. However, most postgraduate students struggle with this aspect.

BA Politics and International Relations - Batch of 2026
4.7
An enriching and challenging experience at the University of Birmingham.
Tips: Before joining the University of Birmingham, students should know the workload can be challenging, especially if you're in a theory-heavy programme like Politics and International Relations, so it's essential to be prepared for a rigorous academic environment. It's also a socially diverse campus, with students from various backgrounds and countries, which enhances both academic and social life. In the UK there's a strong emphasis on independent study, which took some adjusting, but I found it to be a rewarding shift. Cultural, I experienced some differences, especially in communication style and social interactions. People here are generally more direct, and campus life is quite dynamic. It took some time, but the support from faculty and student services really helped me find my footing. I didn't avail of a scholarship upon entering, but the university offers a range of financial support options for international students. These scholarships typically require an application with an emphasis on academic merit or extracurricular achievements, and the allowance can vary depending on the specific award. It's definitely worth exploring these options, as the funding can significantly ease living expenses. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my university, course, and the experience of studying in the UK.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty are not only knowledgeable but also highly supportive and genuinely invested in helping students succeed. The professors in my department bring a strong balance of academic expertise and real-world experience, which makes the lectures engaging and practical. The faculty is quite accessible and approachable. They offer regular office hours and are responsive to emails, often willing to meet outside scheduled times if students need extra guidance. They also create an open, inclusive environment where questions and discussions are encouraged, which makes learning collaborative and less formal. One unique aspect of the teaching methodology here is the emphasis on critical thinking and open debate. Instead of focusing solely on lectures, the department encourages seminars, group projects, and case studies, which bring theory to life and push us to apply our understanding to current events and global issues.
Dislikes (Indian Food): While there are some good Indian restaurants in Birmingham, I often find the authenticity of flavour to be lacking compared to what I'm used to back home. Dishes can feel modified to suit a broader palate, which sometimes takes away from the original taste. In terms of local dining, Birmingham has a range of options, from budget-friendly takeaways to high-end dining. You can find everything from Indian and Middle Eastern to Italian and Asian fusion restaurants. Prices vary, with casual places typically costing 8-15 per meal, while higher-end spots can be 30 or more per person. I do enjoy eating out occasionally, especially for social gatherings, but overall, I prefer cooking for myself. Preparing meals at home allows me to have control over ingredients and flavour, so I can make dishes closer to what I enjoy back in India.
