Postgraduate Reviews of Courses at University of Birmingham

UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM

Student Reviewer - November 2020

I have no words, a complete waste of time and money. Useless staff from the admin office to the finance and tutors. Tutors do not respond to student's concerns and when they do is very shallow and defensive. Students' voice are not taken into consideration. They didn't have lecturers to teach whole modules and we were sent home to do self-directed learning. This basically means that you go home and look on google if you want to learn something. Lectures recorder online (before Covid19!) The quality of teaching was below any standard. No support from personal tutors, who take the maximum time that they are allowed to respond to emails. Very defensive and arrogant members of staff in the Social Work department. Tutors have very minimal qualifications, very few with PhDs. Overall, I'm glad that I managed to get a qualification but I would never go back there!!! read full review

Great university read full review
I would say it was like a fairy tale, the uni days. The sports facilities and the library make everyone still for a while to think and admire. The surroundings are really beautiful. It would be better if there is more choice for vegetarian students and the vegan students in the university cafeteria. Except this other things are wonderful and I had recommended this University for my juniors and my sisters to pursue their postgraduate studies in. read full review
