Queen Mary University of London - QMUL
speciality: Law

I really enjoyed the teaching and lectures, and the professors’ insights were very practical and applicable in real life. The content of the lectures aligned with the core readings, making for interesting classroom discussions. In addition to being a Russell group uni, it is also the only campus-based uni in central London and is ranked as the most diverse RG uni. Cannot recommend this enough 🙂

The University provides many opportunities for its students regarding both social and academic aspects of student life. A highly accessible VLE with an array of student forums to discuss and / or ask questions about each law module being studied are accompanied by a careers support website geared to provide students with a wide scope of events / work experience in the area of law they are interested in pursuing. A weekly fair at the start of the semester ensures students can explore all the societies they can join whether they are cultural, academic or social and the students union website is dedicated to providing up to date information regarding all these events. More specific events for students to meet people within their courses are timetabled during ‘freshers week’ which allows for plenty of time to become comfortable in the environment one will study in for the next 3/4 years!

However one shortcoming is that the School of Law may seem overwhelming in terms of pushing the ‘Commercial Awareness’ agenda and events / work experience only relating to solicitors or those interested in more commercial / corporate sectors, sometimes dauntingly so. This could be seen as a positive as well though as with an ever-growing commercial world, even if you are only interested in being a barrister who is involved in criminal or family advocacy etc, it is good that the University provides opportunities for there to be some commercial awareness present on everyone’s CVs. Overall, the programme provides immense support for students and takes on feedback after module evaluations to ensure that students can improve their learning environment.

There is a multitude of things that QMUL is great at, and a multitude of thing that it could… perhaps do better. More effective communication between the teachers and students would be desired, especially when it comes to exam season.

Starting University during the midst of Covid was tricky. However, Queen Mary, and particularly the school of law, created an environment in which it was still possible to have a good University experience. The students and staff were all so friendly and the quality of teaching in addition to the social aspects of the law school make this a great choice. The course is delivered by a brilliant team and student satisfaction is generally very high overall. I would definitely recommend this University for any law applicants.

The university is excellent and fun. The module selection is vast and tricky, but overall I would say the Course was perfect. The professors are exceptional and very helpful. The whole management was beneficial during my time there which made things really easy for me.

The school lives up to its name in terms of providing quality material and content for the subjects. Although i was not a fan of the assessment method, the teaching methods and resources were adequate. The campus was lively and provided a lot of different opportunities for students.

As an international student, QMUL is super welcoming the teachers and student body make university feel like home. Being a Russel Group university the law teaching faculty is exceptional. It is the only university in London which has a booming campus life. The teaching staff is very understanding and makes it a point to hear out the students and take their opinion while making decisions.

The Queen Mary University of London is one of the best universities in London which comes under the Russell group. They have excellent professors, Libraries, and facilities that a student should experience. They also have great campuses. The courses are amazing, have wide modules in it which give great insight into the course. I have experienced amazing Student life as they support students in every manner, whether it’s about their submissions or career opportunities. They keep on motivating students to participate in various activities or join different societies. So, one should definitely go for QMUL without thinking twice as it will give you great exposure and experience to study abroad.

The academics and co-curricular at QMUL have been great. The professors are extremely helpful and it’s been a pleasure throughout. I was appointed as a student adviser at the legal clinic and it was a very enriching experience for me .

The faculty is quite approachable and various teaching techniques are used. Extensive access to resources both academic and professional. Extremely pro-active careers team and well-connected professors.
