Student review [#22368] for MA Digital Media
at University College London - UCL

I prepare to comment on my course, mainly from the aspects of curriculum setting and teaching quality. As a student who achieved my bachelor’s degree in the UK, the postgraduate major is relatively similar to undergraduates’.

I think that the curriculum setting for digital media is relatively limited, the major courses are mainly divided into two parts, one course is about gender, the other is relevant to games, and there are only 3 elective courses in total. If you chose a dissertation, there are two electives left. Students almost don’t have any other choices. If you choose to write a report, I must take all three elective courses.

Moreover, courses are usually taught by a main professor, played as the lead teacher, with a PhD student as his/her teaching assistant or a newly hired UCL faculty member. They are not familiar with the curriculum content and teaching objectives, which makes me feel that I am not satisfied with the teaching experience.
