MSc International Business Management - Batch of 2023

Offered by University of East London

Good country to live in. Satisfied with the University.

Tips: After coming to this college students can easily take up a job here and get settled. There are many opportunities. I did not experience much transition after coming here as I have lived like this in India. England is a good country to live in and be more modern. In my university the professors are good and they are very helpful and so is the infrastructure but the fee is a little bit much as compared to the facilities but it is okay I am satisfied with it.

Money is not well spent.

Tips: No matter how much the University provides academics students have to look for employability skills. Only those who are in the eyes of the staff will be able to take up roles. This will fall on the level of enthusiastic participation. Scholarship and laptop allowance are there for free. UK is best but UEL is not even in average in the performance. I got lot of opportunities but I am afraid not everyone would be getting not even 5%.

Likes (Student Life): There are many things that go to keep the students active in campus. Though sometimes everyone goes for various part times and are not able to participate but is worth. Every now and then you will get goodies and good enjoyment. The campus is very impressive.

Dislikes (Internships): Mostly the department is trying to enhance the options, but unfortunately, there is nothing to learn or the quality of the learning or encouragement is not fruitful. It is better to take any analytics course than IBM. Doesn't fill the late for opportunities or employability. Internships are not much to go for practical exposure. They say they have a lot of plans but are uncertain.

Cheerful and intellectual experience

Tips: Scholarships are only offered to students who have been consistent in their academics and have a GPA of 3 and above. Also speaking good English and being an active participant will get you a lot of opportunities and you will be able to connect with people across the city and campus.

Likes (Public transportation): The campus is very well connected and many options are available to commute like buses, rental cycles, trams, etc. Some students even get bus passes issues through the local depot. You can even get assistance from the University office. The tickets are also very cheap and helpful to international students who do not have their own conveyance.

Dislikes (Value for money): It gets very difficult for international students to settle down here due to very high living costs and rents. Also, food options are not adequate and it would be advised to cook your own food and buy your own groceries. Part-time jobs are also very less here and if you are able to secure then pay would not be that high.

The university is good for international students, but you should keep your options open.

Tips: You will definitely face hardships because of the weather, but it's really lovely. I had no scholarships but students do get it, so talk with the university, I'm sure you'll get it. The university is okay not that good, but it's in London, that's the best part. The crowd is almost all Indian, so you won't get much exposure to foreign students. But that's good and bad at the same time. The courses are really well structured but don't take the placement year. It's useless and will not help you. What matters is you come here and get a job in a good country with a quality crowd.

Likes (Student Life): The student life is absolutely amazing, but it is subjective. If you are an outgoing person who is friendly with everyone, you will enjoy it here. The campus organizes events that keep students engaged, and they also have a common house where we can play games, do arts and crafts, and use the PS. There are many communities, such as the Indian, Bangladesh, and other regional communities, that organize events on special occasions.

Dislikes (Indian Food): For someone coming here from India, the restaurants here are a big disappointment. Both, the taste and the money are not worth it. I rather prefer cooking by myself. I'm not a professional but it is what I grew up eating and those taste hold a special place in our heart.
