Overall score
This course does *not do what it says on the tin*. If you are interested in business other than marketing than this is not the course for you. It should be renamed 'UK Marketing, some UK HR (personality test, intercultural communication and timeline of the creationg of the EU'. If that is what you are interested in you may enjoy it. There are only about 60 or so taught hours so effectively you will be paying 100pounds an hour, which quite frankly is a lot of waffling most of the time. If I could rate it a 0 I would have - one good thing is that as they seem to only accept people with very diverse backgrounds so it is a very nice little group that tends to be brought together.
Study experience
As mentioned above there is a lot of waffling and not really very much valuable content (except some UK marketing) that is being passed on. Teachers have used previous years' tests and were surprised why those who knew candidates from previous years got much higher grades than those who didn't. This particular teachers also admitted to trying to 'trick' us in the test and hence wasn't testing our knowledge but ability to remember specific sequences of names for policies rather than content. You will get very little help in finding a placement and if you want to write a dissertation about a subject not involving the above named fields you will not receive any support.
Facilities
The library has hardly any copies of the required reading material which is also required for lots of other courses so no chance of getting them. If you are lucky enough to find a book you can only reserve it for one week or 2 and no concessions will be made for postgrads or those who have to be abroad for their study. Group rooms are impossible to book unless booked at least 1 week in advance and can only be used for 2 hours, computers are impossible to find in the library but can easily be found in other rooms. The food court is incrediblky expensive and consists of the typical chains you will find in london train stations and have very limited opening hours. After 5pm you will have a tough time finding anything open.
Postgraduate life
The one good thing about this course is something that has nothing to do with the course or what you're paying for and that's the student life and the people you get to meet. If you do choose this course do not opt to stay on campus as you will be bound into a long contract that you are most likely not going to be needing.
Job prospects
Employers might not be aware just how bad this course is and therefore just take the masters at face value though I have struggled to look for jobs as the course has not been related at all to what I want to do and therefore cannot give specific examples of what I have learned in interviews and so on.

Accountancy with German MA (Hons)
University Of Aberdeen
Ali, October 2008Overall score
Absolutely loving it!! Was able to experience life in another country too as part of the programme. I would recommend doing your research - I went to a few open days before deciding on Aberdeen
Study experience
The first couple of years were really flexible and that was great as I still wasn't 100% sure what I want to do. My lecturers have been fab and really supportive - so feel happy about graduating and entering the 'real' world!
Facilities
Library is fab and the librarians are really helpful - apparently there's a new library coming but not till after I graduate unfortunately! Getting a new sports centre too but am not exactly sporty!
Postgraduate life
I went a bit mental in Freshers week and signed up for hundreds of them! Now I'm a member of 2 - the German society and the Sticky Toffee Pudding Appreciation Society.
Job prospects
My accounts lecturers have told me we have one of the highest employment prospects so am pretty hopeful of getting a job. If not open to doing a PG - living more of the student life - oh yeah!!
