Student review [#15934] for Digital Media Arts
at Birkbeck University of London

I’m currently attending Digital Media Designer MA and really enjoying it. The programme is very thorough and the modules complement each other. Even though the building is quite small the facilities are nice and modern. It has a nice library with enough place for most students. It’s also super easy and quick to print something in the library, and the system to do it it’s really convenient. Regarding the professors, most of them are helpful and good professionals.
The timetable and workload are perfectly suitable for people who have a job while doing the master.
I would rate the university as being a great university that met my expectations, although there’s not a student environment. As an evening university, most people are already settled and busy with their own job and life so it’s not good if you’re looking for the academic feeling. You don’t get to do that many friendships also because of the low amount of classes per week. However, there’s a cool bar with a rooftop, on the last floor of the building that offers great prices on drinks. Anyone who attends the university should try it- super fun and cheap.
When it comes to the location, it couldn’t be better. It’s easy for anyone who lives in any part of the city since it’s located right in the heart of London.
One of the perks from living in London is that you meet people from all over the world, and it’s really interesting hearing experiences of such different people and cultures.
Overall it’s a very good university!
