University of Warwick Speciality : Economics
programme: Economics, Politics and International Studies

Warwick was a great university overall. Student life was low-key and ideal for introverts like me. Societies, sports clubs and facilities were excellent. Professors were excellent academics but they were not good teachers at the time. They weren’t always good at explaining things simply, which made it harder to grasp key concepts. Overall, I think Warwick is a good university for career advancement and employability.

The University of Warwick, famous for its profound academic reputation and opportunity for career prospects, is the perfect balance of work hard play hard.

The high level of education we receive from global top academics is second to none, as they take time and care to ensure we as students can learn as much as possible both during our seminars and through the extra resources they provide.

The campus boasts a lively and buzzing atmosphere especially due to the various society events, coffee shops and study spaces, and the Faculty of Arts Building among others are testament to modern architecture.

There are a plethora of career fairs and other events held by industry professionals that we can take advantage of to advance our career prospects and enhance personal development. Overall, my time at Warwick so far has been amazing in every regard.

Academics:__Degree gave lots of flexibility to specialise and take interesting modules from different departments, and also to manage difficulty of degree overall. Better than doing pure Economics as you still get away with saying you did Economics at Warwick but have the possibility to take ‘easier’ modules (like applied econometrics vs pure econometrics). __For people who are good at writing essays and doing maths as both will be tested in core compulsory modules.__Some really good and approachable professors, some less good, and probably the best econometrics professor in the whole of the UK to teach you one of the hardest modules. __Not a big feeling of being close to programme, even hard to know who exactly is doing the programme because classes are often mixed with other students. PPE probably has a better environment in this sense.____Life:__Spending first year on campus is nice and you will get to know lots of people, but will also get bored of it by the end of the year.__Would 100% recommend moving to Leamington Spa in 2nd and 3rd year, most people move there anyways so your friends are maximum a 15 minute walk away, and some nice bars and clubs, although can also get boring. Half hour bus to university is annoying, especially at peak times, but still better than tube in London.
