My opinion of the University of Southampton is very positive.
What I like the most is the inclusive environment and various opportunities for students. When I first came to the campus, I missed the society “bunfight”. Hence, I did not have a chance to join any of them. I reckon that as a regret of my study there. However, after working as a peer advisor for the business school, I got a chance to see how well-organised the student union is. The university provides Loads of societies, which can fit a wide range of interests from the students’ side. I promoted as many events as possible to the incoming student to offset my regrets. Meanwhile, I had an opportunity to work with the faculty and understand how hard the school is trying to utilise their resources to give students a better studying experience by promoting all of the support services provided by the university.
However, sometimes the way of promoting and championing is not as efficient as it should be. For instance, as mentioned, I missed the society showcase, as it only happened once a year. Others who’d like to join the society need to wait for another year or just miss their chances.
Nevertheless, I enjoyed my stay at the University of Southampton. As it is very international, there are students from all over the world. Therefore, it brought me an opportunity to see and embrace the difference in culture. Meanwhile, studying at the University of Southampton gave me a chance to make many good friends. The friendship that we obtained continued even after my graduation, which cannot be measured in monetary value.
In terms of the courses, a diverse list of programmes is provided. I studied International Management for my master’s. The programme is well-designed and enjoyable. The topics introduced by the lectures are very up-to-date, with a reasonable amount of assignments. At first, it was challenging. However, I gained loads of capabilities after studying at the UoS. For instance, critical thinking, time management, teamwork, and presentation skills etc., which are highly valued by employers in the job market.
Therefore, I will recommend the University of Southampton to my friends and students who are applying for Universities.

As for the process of postgraduate study, The University of Southampton will pay attention to the construction of the structure of knowledge mania and emphasize the process of theoretical learning. This is a key point I like very much, but at the same time, I do not like it. The knowledge that students learn is too simple and there are great difficulties in practical application. Except for a few teachers who will introduce students to practical knowledge in seminars, most instructors do not do this. In my opinion, this university has a high degree of internationalization, which can eliminate prejudice for cultural week in different time. Meanwhile, different cultural activities can let people know different cultures in the world, which is very helpful to build students’ international vision. For job prospects, the school to the help of different students can make different, as is known to all, engineering at the university of Southampton, especially computer science is very outstanding, so in this kind of professional obtain employment prospect is very good also, but for business students, to find a job is more difficult, not many schools can help also.
