Student Reviewer - March 2015

My overall experience at Birkbeck is very good. On the whole, the lecturers on the course are insightful and the course is informative. There is also decent financial support towards tuition. Unfortunately, I have never engaged with the Students' Union. Also, there are less external class rooms currently, as they are building more infrastructure. read full review

The seminar teachers seem disinterested at times, and some of the lectures aren't engaging enough. The Students' Union is functional but not that great. The night life in London is very good though, but expensive. read full review

I've had a very enjoyable experience at Birkbeck so far. There is a mixture of nationalities on my course, and students of different ages. My accommodation is reasonably priced and in a good location. There is also ample support available for students, including financial support. read full review

Psychology of Education Professionals

BIRKBECK, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON

Student Reviewer - March 2015

An all round excellent experience. Great environment, great teachers and a student friendly place. The best learning experience you will ever have. Birkbeck caters extremely well to mature students who have other life commitments. Cafe Costa is too expensive though, but apart from that, 5/5. read full review

Law

BIRKBECK, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON

Student Reviewer - March 2015

It's not a terrible university, but it could be better. Good careers and counselling support services are available to students, and there are always opportunities to get involved with the Students' Union. There are good academic staff on my course. However, student accommodation is not easy to find, and the library is always packed - it's never open enough. My experience with the clubs and societies has been average. They need to improve their communication. read full review
