Student review [#50965] for Digital Marketing
at University College Birmingham - UCB

I studies Digital Marketing at University College Birmingham from 2019-2022. Overall I would say that the course itself was excellent and has a range of different aspects of the digital marketing industry included in it. I also thought that the facilities were excellent particularly in my final year when a new campus was opened.

However, my degree was completed during the pandemic which meant i spent half my degree working from home and half of it face-to-face. I found that during this time the university’s faults were highlighted. For example, i found that they gave students very little information about our future studies until last minute despite other universities making descions and informing students much earlier. I also found that during this time very little support was given to students at a time when we needed it the most. Support was given when face-to-face before the pandemic so why should this support stop when everybody is forced to work remotly?

To conclude, UCB should’ve focused on adapting not just their way of teaching, but how to support students as it would’ve helped students so much more in such a challenging time. Despite this though UCB’s main strengths are their course content and facilities. Once they become more adaptable in all areas they will be a 5 star University thats for sure.
