University of Bristol
speciality: Education

I highly recommend the University of Bristol. It is a modern institution with a very competitive staff.

The curriculum is relevant and transferable, especially for international students. There is a component of scholarships as well, though they are highly competent; there is always a chance if you apply

I highly recommend this university for following reasons

1. Research based studies
2. Good library and resources
3. Excellent support and guidance
4. Loads of activities
5. Excellent staff and further studies opportunity
6. Excellent career service team
7. But remember you have to put your own efforts to do well.

The University of Bristol is a prestigious university located in the beautiful city of Bristol in the northwest part of England. It is ranked number 9 among universities in the UK and is part of the prestigious Russell Group of universities. My experience here is great and the people are so nice. As an international student, I quickly settled since all the hurdles I had like finding accommodation, starting classes and places to shop were quickly resolved by people I met. Some were resolved by total strangers like the cleaning lady who got me free blankets, cooking utensils and clothes hangers the first day I arrived!

The course is accompanied by a highly skilled set of academics, who allow you to immerse yourself in a wide-ranging scope of different topics regarding both human and physical geography. I was able to develop my skill set further, especially in areas regarding field and lab work, which is attributed to the amazing array of equipment supplied by the university. It has helped me to progress with my future career immensely, I highly recommend this course for someone interested in geography, as it opens your future to numerous different pathways.

The university has tons of incredibly knowledgeable and captivating lecturers – as you get through your bachelor’s degree and get more choice I found lectures to be not only extremely informative but fascinating and entertaining too. The workload is quite heavy and I feel the university is heavily lacking in the quality of its pastoral support. Mental health services, student services and the amount of individual tutoring needs to be expanded and improved. As it is such a prestigious university I do feel the marking is stricter and the expectations are higher (naturally) so that can be quite difficult. It’s a great university if you want to be in a beautiful, historic, fun and lively city. It’s great for nightlife and meeting wonderful people. You will make fantastic friends and explore wonderful topics in many different university libraries.
