Remote Sensing and Environmental Mapping MSc

UCL (UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON)

Maya - November 2023

The course was completely over-enrolled meaning we did not get attention from professors and we weren't able to enroll in all of the modules that are promised on the website. It is also very theory based and not practical - I didn't feel prepared at all when it came time for my dissertation. The advisors are not allowed to help us for very long, so you are mostly left alone for your dissertation. I would not recommend. read full review

Policing MSc

UCL (UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON)

Seth - March 2023

Best is the people and the quality of the education, worst has to deal with who runs UCL, administration has quite a few dirtbags. Facilitates aren't the greatest. I prefer more of a traditional campus feel and prefer KCL and LSE campus. Still considering coming back to UCL to apply for a LLM, alongside the other London unis, and maybe throw my shot at oxbridge. read full review

Computer Science MPhil/PhD

UCL (UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON)

Student Reviewer - May 2022

The research is very high quality and it is great to be part of such a strong team.

Unfortunately, there is almost no support from the administration.
Colleagues coming from other universities both in the UK and abroad are continually surprised by quite how difficult it is to accomplish any administrative task. Personally, I have been waiting two months for an equipment request and one month for an expense claim. Other teaching assistants have waited over a year to get paid for their work. We are encouraged to work without contracts too.

Kind regards,
Alex

Genetics of Human Disease MSc

UCL (UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON)

Student Reviewer - April 2021

The overall experience has been very good. Being my first year in the UK, UCL has been very accommodating in terms of settling in and slowly starting studies. Tutors have helped to the best of their abilities and have been a pillar of support to us in our times of need. Classmates and other friends met during this time have made the online class experience a lot more bearable. read full review
