PhD in Music at Edinburgh

PhD Music

University Of Edinburgh

Anon, December 2007

Overall score

Study experience

The research course at Edinburgh offers excellent support both human and bibliographical.

Facilities

Although some of the buildings are old the facilities are great. Even if you do not obtain the resources immediately they will provide what you need soon enough

Postgraduate life

Sometimes the undergraduate students do not consider the necessities of others such as silence in particular reserved places. Nonetheless the atmosphere is really fantastic.

Economics PhD (Scottish Graduate Programme)

University Of Stirling

Nick, December 2007

Overall score

Really nice campus, with lots of help at hand. My advice to new students is not to stay hidden in your room but to go out there and take part in sports and clubs because the benefits are terrific.

Study experience

I loved undegraduate study now I am doing pHD research, I love it even more.

Facilities

Excellent service.

Postgraduate life

Huge number of clubs, catering to many needs and hobbies. I love sports like volleyball, cricket, swimming etc.
