Postgraduate reviews
Overall score
I was initially unsure about teaching as a career however my Primary Education (Early Years) PGCE quickly proved to be the right move. I was surrounded by peers who were in a similar situation to me, which certainly didn't hinder my enjoyment of the social side of the university. My lecturers were always on hand and although the work load was tough, it was so worth it. I now have a job I enjoy and a career for life. Not bad for only one year extra studying!
Study experience
My lecturers were helpful and very realistic, which always helps! It was a tough work load but not unmanagable. The course itself equipped me with the skills I am contiuously using. I received a grant from the government which I don't have to repay. I also had a student loan as I was an independent student.
Facilities
I only had to buy a couple of books for my course as I always managed to get the texts I needed from the uni library. The computers were always available most of my lecturers were fantastic, and the course, despite occasionally throwing you in at the deep end, actually proved to be the best way to learn and develop skills.
Postgraduate life
I made some great friends on my course who understood what I was going through as they were in the same boat. The uni may could have organised more social events however this was not a problem as we generally organised our own things. After completing our course the uni did throw us all a party to congratulate us which was good fun.
Job prospects
After completing my course I have been in permanent work and am really enjoying my experiences. I have always thought that I work to live, (not live to work) however I am so glad I am in a job that I actually enjoy!

I would never reccomend anyone to join this college as its all talk and no show. I applied for MSc course in marketing with specialisation in emarketing last October 2009 and the coure was supposed to begin 11th Jan. I duly paid my fees and waited to hear from college on the time table, faculty, modeules until the end. Later on i was told that the commencement date is postponed and had no information on it. Eventually was being told that due to in sufficient numbers in this session the course is deferred and suggested me to take up onlise study mode or have your fees refunded. I opted for the full refund and its been over 1 month there is no accountability or as a matter of fact no one is responsible to do the refund. I paid full sum of £6750 and paying an interest on it. I really don't know if I will even get any clear response or just being shunned everytime i call them.....DON'T APPLY IN THIS INSTITUTE and use your money elsewhere.
Study experience
Never even started
Facilities
Looks swanky but has littelrally nothing to offer.
Postgraduate life
Only one programme coordinator and his name is Pratik Peshvaria. Tried to help me at several stages but it seems just wanted to delay the process. I did ask him to put me in touch with alumni of this course and i was being told it's not possible.

Overall score
I really enjoyed this course, I found that after my undergraduate degree in English language and linguistics, I had no vocation. I found a flyer for the MA in Publishing in the envelope with my BA results, and this inspired me to use my knowledge for the English language for a career in publishing. Doing the course made my skills appicable to the real world of work.
Study experience
The tutors were really knowledgeable, and a lot of guest tutors/speakers actually work in the publishing industry, which made it all real. We were set actual proofreading, editing and comissioning tasks, so it felt like we were achieving results.
Facilities
Facilities were good, the postgraduate centre at Kingston University was useful, as we were able to study in a quiet area.
Postgraduate life
The group was quite small, which meant I really got to know my fellow classmates. We often went out as a group were always in contact about work and projects.
Job prospects
Doing a work placement during the course (which we all had to do) really helped my job prospects, I found a job in the publishing industry within six months of graduation.
