Postgraduate Reviews of Courses at Birkbeck, University of London

English

BIRKBECK, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON

Student Reviewer - March 2015

Birkbeck is an open and friendly place to study and is located in an extremely convenient part of London. As a university, Birkbeck has always felt very warm and welcoming, but most importantly it is dedicated to delivering high-quality teaching. It is a busy place, as it is in the centre of London, but I enjoy the cultural events. Personally, it's a bit different to a 'normal' campus lifestyle. It also charges a fortune. The Students' Union is fine, but I have not had much interaction with them. read full review

Great academic standards, but lots of sexism, sexual harassment, misogyny, and management who do not care about the safety of female students. read full review
