A Systemic Approach to Management and Consultation MSc
Birkbeck, University Of London
Maggie, December 2007Overall score
It's fine here but I only study part-time so only here once a week.
Study experience
It's a good course.

Race and Ethnicity: Msc
Birkbeck, University Of London
Monique, August 2007Overall score
Study experience
I found this course wonderful. The lecturers were really well read, which enabled thought provoking classes. It developed my knowledge of critical race theory. The course is being renamed and the policy and culture sections divided into their own courses from this sept. but I highly recommend either course.
Facilities
Birkbeck College has a recently refurbished library. The rooms are a good size and the facilities to support the course are great.
Postgraduate life
I really enjoyed working with my fellow classmates. Due to the nature of part-time evening study I was unable to live the 'student' life and enjoy the atmosphere in that way.

Bioinformatics Msc
Birkbeck, University Of London
R, February 2007Overall score
Didnt like Birkbeck. Paid a lot in tuition fee's and thought the support I got from academics was not up to standard.
Study experience
I had three project supervisors, so there was no clear strategy.
Facilities
They had up to date technology
Postgraduate life
Job prospects
My MSc did not help me. I now work full time in a restaurant.
