Climate Change Finance and Investment MSc

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH

M Ferdian - December 2024

I love the city in general. The University's libraries are good. with proper facilities that I can use, such as discussion rooms, computers, printers, even 3D printer! Some buildings look so old but in positive ways, make them look classic and cultured.
However, in my own experience, some classrooms are a little bit aged. i mean, like some chairs are feel old, they are sometimes kind of wobbly, and some of them do not have enough leg room. Main library can be crowded when exam days come, but I think that is something that can not be avoided. i think it is good to add some space for classrooms or some like study hubs. read full review

First of all, Edinburgh University is located in a beautiful city, the capital of the British country of Scotland. It has many opportunities for non-academic activities and great places for coffee and food.
The University is fully modernised, with excellent facilities and amenities. The academic environment is very friendly and there is always help available for students, be it for work or mental health. read full review

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH

Student Reviewer - April 2021

Clinicians and people lecturers are very helpful and supportive. They clearly care about us students. Upper management does not seem to care about student feelings or experience. When talking to lower years they only tell them the positive feedback and ignore the negative, showing they don’t care and/or listen. Our year is expected to accept anything that is done (or not done) and get on with it. There is no explanations given when deadlines aren’t met on the part of the university and little consideration seems to be given for us. A real shame, given how wonderful the teaching staff are. read full review

Biomedical Sciences (Life Sciences) MScR

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH

Student Reviewer - April 2021

This year has been very different due to Covid (as can be expected) but this definitely had an impact on how much I enjoyed the course. Due to working remotely the only real contact we had was with our project supervisor and this was limited. I think if this was any other year in which we were allowed access to labs then it would be a very different story and an enjoyable course read full review

Biomedical Sciences (Life Sciences) MScR

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH

Student Reviewer - April 2021

This year has been a strange year due to the pandemic which has limited the amount of experience we were able to gain from the first 6 months of the degree. The next 6 months are looking brighter and I truly believe that if I had done this course a year later a lot would have changed. The university is great, the location is lovely, the people are friendly and the lecturers are super helpful. read full review
