Location
DU is located in a beautiful small city where is clean and stunning for someone who used to live in a bigger city. Residents in Durham are mostly the senior and students, people are always kind and you could always find your peace while spending study time there.
Study
I was doing MSc marketing, all of my module leaders are professional and responsible while having lectures and seminars. My supervisor and dissertation tutor are supportive as well. highly recommend the programme if you are considering it.
After-school life
There are some decent restaurants and nice coffee shops in Durham. I enjoyed exploring great food a lot last year. It’s also super convenient to go to Newcastle if you miss a bigger city life.
Durham University is one of the oldest universities in the UK with almost 200 years of history. It has a lot of own values, customs and traditions that you will not find in any other university in the world. One of the best things from this university is that each student is allocated to one of the 17 colleges in university, and each college has also its own values and traditions. One of the things I do not find as atractive from Durham University is that the city were it is located has a lot of hills. However, this give the city an old vibe and st the same time you make exercise every day white you walk to your lectures or come back to the accomodation. My course at the moment has been very helpfull in order to achieve my final goal in university which is to graduate. Proffessors are profesional and give the lectures in a dynamic way in order to keep your attention. I would recommend this university to my friends because its one of the top universities in the world, it has a very strong identity, lectures are fun and many friends will be create since you have a really big feeling of identity with everyone of your colleagues.
