View moreI am a first year at Queen Mary and I am loving it so far. I love how positive the mindset is throughout the campus. Every week, there’s even happening on the central square. Whilst I love all of this about the university, I believe that we are slightly disconnected from other London universities, and I hope to change that.
View moreI do believe that the school offers excellent education in the material that the courses cover, however the structuring of the program is very self taught. The lectures are useful sessions of information, but the seminars are often unhelpful and the seminar tutors often seem just as, if not more so, lost as the students are. The people are excellent and there are some really wonderful professors, but there are a great deal more who seem unbothered by the ineffectiveness of their seminars.
View moreThe Queen Mary University of London delivered as promised. The learning style was broken down and students were treated with respect. Group studies, lectures, lecturer to teacher relationships are par excellence.
The environment was serene and people respected each other. The community was friendly and religious beliefs were nothing different to a multicultural friendly environment. I could walk home late at night and wasn’t bothered about getting waylaid.
While the first year was full of compulsory modules and slightly overwhelming, I have really enjoyed the last two years. They have allowed me to explore what I am genuinely interested in (specifically human rights) by offering such a wide range of modules. This is what I have enjoyed most out of the course. There was a long directory of modules to choose from in the last two years, all with different types of assignments (either entirely exam-based, entirely coursework or a mixture of the two). As I picked mostly human-rights based modules and such, I have realised that I want to work in this field too, and am also preparing to apply to a masters in this field within the next two years. However, some of the module assignments changed after registration in the third year, and this caused some problems in the last semester when students tried to change modules, as each module change is done manually in the Politics department. I know that some students, including myself, were unhappy with this experience when modules filled up too quickly.
Student support has been amazing. Lecturers and professors have been very helpful with assignment-support. The help has ranged from office hours to telephone calls and emails. In my second and third year, I have found this particularly helpful in pushing my grade higher as lecturers are always open to looking over essay and assignment plans and offering helpful advice. One small problem that I encountered with this in the third year was that marking criteria was inconsistent with some modules and lecturers. However, this was only limited to one or two modules, and overall, I was happy with my experience.
Career support is also very good. I only started using the resources available from the careers office this year, but it has been a good experience. Meetings are available every week and I have used them to get my cover letter checked as well as having a mock interview for an internship. This really helped me to prepare for possible questions as it was my first interview.
I would definitely recommend this course and university to a friend. I have enjoyed my time and know what I want to do in the future career-wise.
View moreQuite friendly and welcoming. Enjoying my time here. Campus life is great. Big campus I love the cafe and amazing people. I love the people and I find the teachers amazing and I love the teaching method and style but I don’t like the fact that strikes are happening and that lectures should have mandatory attendance.
View moreI love the facilities and support available at the university, the library especially. All my seminar tutors are of great help and have pushed me to challenge myself in my work. I would definitely recommend Queen Mary!
