Tips: I had a smooth transition to the University of Strathclyde. I became more independent and experienced a cultural shift. To apply for the scholarship, I went to the scholarship site, and after a review by the committee, I was awarded the scholarship of 3000 pounds, which reduced my final tuition fees.

Likes (Indian Food): There are plenty of options in Glasgow for Indian food. Even the locals are fans of Indian food, and many Indian restaurants have opened in recent years as the number of Indian students has increased. I prefer to cook at home, as eating out every day would be very expensive.

Dislikes (Value for money): For the number of offline classes, I don't think the tuition fee is justified and the course runs only for 8 months if you exclude holidays and exam time. I strongly believe a year course for the tuition fees charge is not at all justified. And also the labs and facilities are not up to the mark.

MSc Advanced Computer Science with Data Science - Batch of 2025

3.7

Focus on studies instead of getting part time jobs

Tips: Get to know staff maybe connect with them on LinkedIn. Check whether the lecture happens online or offline since one of our modules is almost entirely online. Along with that see how the marking scheme is for each module that you want to go for so it would help to plan your study in advance.

Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is good, cheap and less crowded. You have lot of options to travel by bus, subway and train. If you are about 20 years old then you get a free bus and train pass from the university which is great. Entirely cashless if you just have card with you that is perfectly fine.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): They are approachable and also really helpful. However everthing has to be done by student-faculty is there to guide you on things but help you directly like spoon feeding. There are also some lectures which happen online and do not help that much in studies

MSc Advanced Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2023

A place of useful learning

Tips: Apart from the weather which is constantly rainy, the transition was pretty easy as there are so many Indian students. It is always easy when the roommates are from the same country. I did get a scholarship for my course and I recommend checking for it beforehand.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is very approachable, knowledgeable and kind when it comes to Strathclyde. This is especially true for mechanical engineering professors. Every professor is ready and willing to give their time to students. The quality of faculty available is undoubtedly great.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are good opportunities for work after studies, however, the majority of them do not involve students from mechanical engineering. There are good opportunities for students in data science, business analytics and other management courses. However, this might also be because the UK was in recession when I graduated in 2023.

Place of useful learning!

Tips: Surely there was a transition after coming here, so be prepared for that. It takes time to fit into the environment and their culture. I was very satisfied with the curriculum of the university and the course. In the uni, they also organize different events, for the students around the world. This was an amazing experience.

Amazing teaching experience.

Tips: I faced difficulties adjusting to the academic and social norms. There are many scholarships available to international students based on academic excellence, but students should apply early to get any scholarships. Overall, Glasgow is a great city. The university has brilliant teaching faculty and provides many opportunities.

University is great in every aspect with good facilities and also have a great library to study.

Tips: Talking about my course, make sure the modules selected are good because a few modules are outdated in the industry. I would recommend keeping the University of Strathclyde as the second option for Masters in advanced computer Science because it's not advanced and to be honest not worth it.
