Great Experience

LSE is a great place to create life-long connections and friends. There's a certain sense of community that is special to the university. The staff are hands-on and approachable. The facilities are modern and well-equipped.

Academic Excellence

I can boldly say that today my research skills have improved drastically because of the skills I learnt in UH. UH not only gives you an opportunity to grow, it gives you the necessary exposure as a student. With the experience garnered from UH, you can compete anywhere in the world. The tutors are exceptionally qualified and always ready to guide you through. Adaora Nwaka LLM,Energy Law and the Environment.

3D Computer Animation - Little value for fees

I studied the MA 3D Computer Animation at BU. If you are an international student I can't warn you enough about how studying there can be one of the worsts mistakes that you can make in your life. They cherry pick the stories of success. They use the names of the bigs studios for advertising, implicitly or explicitly. They use BFX as an advertising tool for the courses at BU. They say that they will prepare you for the industry in completion of the course, this is absolutely false in my experience. The MA is an introductory course condesed in one year. For an astronomical fee you will learn the basics of the tools and techiques. Things are taught in a rushed manner and sometimes in a mediocre way. Most of the people end the course with the same artistic level that they begin with. You will learn higher education skills that are transfarable to the practice of the profession or other aspects of life. But the price is absolutely not worth it. You can learn the basics of the software and basic techniques from free sources or from a paid source that is an infinitesimal fraction and provide the same or more value. And you can for sure learn the higher education skills that are the most valuable part of the course creating projects by yourself. Most of the international racialized students that I know didn't get into the industry and we were very dissapointed, some of us to the point of depression. It felt like a scam. The teachers don't have a good artistic level and there was a teacher that had a very abussive behaviour. Also, you have to consider that the industry is very discriminatory despite what they say. So if you don't have a European or Canadian passport you will have a difficut time getting a job even in a small studio. The majority of the people working in the studios are white Europeans and North Americans. If you mix a discriminatory industry with a student debt you have a horrible situation. Many of the students that later had success in the industry took further online reputed education like iAnimate or AnimSchool. If you want to become an animator go for this option. Having a MA will give you zero employability advantage. Buy a good computer, get a good subscription, get good online education, do projects by yourself and get feedback. I write this as a way of denouncing my experience there but also to warn you. If you are lucky, you will read this. I would say avoid the MA 3D Computer Animation, and if you don't trust me ask other people I am confident that more people will have the courage to say it. I ended up with an unpayable debt for the minuscule value that I got.

Best Experience

Amazing university and a great experience for me. I really think it's the best option to live a full college experience. The level of studies and teachers is good, besides being a campus a long time ago. Then you have the option of the village that also has a lot of life.
