I really enjoy the course and the people I've met and it's definitely a chill time with challenging moments but compared to other departments, SELCS gets so little money and nothing ever happens - no socials, nothing offered despite paying the same amount as STEM students or even BASC students who get socials, free or paid, parties etc. Also the admin is incredibly slow. The teachers are for the most part lovely though, especially Benjamin in French and ALL the Spanish teachers. The content is varied and interesting especially the history/culture modules. Definitely very hands on teaching experience too. read more

Bulgarian and East European Studies, BA Hons FullTime
As an affiliate student in European and International Social and Political Studies, I've been impressed by how much UCL invests in preparing students for the working world. There are constant careers fairs, employer events, networking opportunities and talks across sectors, and you can even book one-to-one careers appointments with a consultant from your own department. The modules are world-class, although one-semester affiliate students have fairly limited options because of how UK exams work, which feels at odds with UCL's commitment to equal opportunity. Overall, a top-tier university for building your future career. read more

Good course, some modules are hit and miss, personally I wish there was an option to drop Sociology second year but this isn't a massive issue. Personal Tutors are great, First term module teachers were amazing especially Shaun Foley! read more
