UoB is a great uni to study at for many reasons. The careers service have been incredibly helpful in assisting me on my path to postgraduate study, and I would recommend these services to anyone studying at UoB. Furthermore, UoB has hundreds of student-lead societies to get involved with, meaning there is a society out there for everyone. The student accommodation is all close together and well-maintained, and the facilities on campus are plentiful. I always feel very safe at UoB because the campus layout means that my friends are never far away, and the first-year student accommodation always had 24 hour reception so if you ever have any worries or problems there is always someone around. read more

I really enjoy going to the university of Birmingham as it has a lovely blend of being a campus uni whilst being in amongst a city, which provides a nice green familiar space and cheap city housing! The University has great facilities and plenty to get involved with no matter what your interests are. Having a personal academic tutor allowed me to have constant support throughout my studies. There is always something happening on campus! Events and societies happen all the time, and they are a great way to get involved and find people with similar interests to yourself. There are also plenty of bars and pubs close by including on-campus bars. The city centre is easy and cheap to get to and has many clubs and bars also. Whatever it is that you fancy doing, you will be able to find a way to do it here at Birmingham. read more

As a student who spent a year at the University of Birmingham, this century-old red-brick institution has transcended the definition of an "university" and has become the most precious container for my growth in my youth. When I first arrived on campus, the greenery and the Victorian-style buildings immediately captured my heart, and the only underground railway station in the entire UK was an even greater surprise. Academically, the teaching here is both rigorous and inclusive. During my studies, it not only enhanced my academic abilities but also taught me how to collaborate across cultures. The career service center of the university is a "treasure", and I received a lot of help. The one-year study abroad experience at the University of Birmingham not only taught me professional knowledge but also made me independent, brave, and resilient. Here, I met like-minded friends, experienced different cultures, and became clear about my life direction. read more

The University is a great place both in its courses as in their extra curricular activities. The campus is nicely situated and looks very nice, especially in Spring and Summer. There are lots of clubs and societies to join ranging from sports to music amongst other creative clubs. Living facilities are good, as there are lots of student houses as well as good accommodation to choose from. There are job opportunities that you have to stay on top on if you would like a job on the side as well. read more

Choosing the University of Birmingham for Law has been the best decision for my career, as it perfectly combines a prestigious Russell Group reputation with a truly supportive community. The academic experience is rigorous but rewarding, especially with the unique opportunity to apply classroom theories to real-world cases through seminars. I have felt completely supported by the multi-layered guidance system, from the specialised career focus of CEPLER to the consistent mentorship of my Personal Academic Tutor. Life on the beautiful Edgbaston campus is incredibly convenient, offering world-class facilities and a vibrant Students' Union that makes you feel at home instantly. It is a high-value investment that offers a top-tier education, a fantastic social life, and a clear path into the global legal profession. read more

Starting my journey at the University of Birmingham was both exciting and overwhelming, as it meant stepping into a new country, a new culture, and a new chapter of my life. From the very first day, the university made me feel welcomed, supported, and understood. The kindness of the staff, the openness of the campus community, and the inclusive environment helped me feel at ease and confident. What began as uncertainty slowly turned into comfort and belonging, allowing me to grow academically, personally, and emotionally. This experience has not only shaped my education but has also given me memories, strength, and confidence that I will carry forward. read more

I chose to study at the University of Birmingham because it was one of few universities offering my course - a BA in three modern languages (German, French and Russian in my case). Since starting here, I have loved every minute of it. The staff are passionate, highly knowledgeable (most are active researchers), and supportive. The course is interesting and engaging. The campus is stunningly beautiful. I have also been able to work on campus for the university during my studies which has been a brilliant way to meet new friends across the university. There are many different societies to join and the student body is friendly. I am hoping to stay on and study an MA at the University too. Russian was a new language for me, starting at university. I have been delighted at my progress. The ab initio programme is very supportive, but fast-paced and I have enjoyed every moment. The University of Birmingham offers competitive contact hours for modern languages which is really important. read more

My experience at the University of Birmingham has been extremely positive and rewarding. The campus and facilities are outstanding, modern, well-maintained, and well designed for both studying and leisure. The libraries, study spaces, and digital infrastructure strongly support academic work, especially at postgraduate level. Student life is vibrant and inclusive, with a diverse international community. There are many clubs and societies, making it easy to meet people, pursue interests, and feel part of a community. The Student Guild is a real highlight: it is well organised, supportive, and very active in organising social, cultural, and professional events. Academically, my course (MSc Bioinformatics) has been challenging but highly rewarding. The teaching is research-led, the staff are approachable, and the course provides strong preparation for research and industry careers. The workload can be intense at times, especially initially, but the academic support available makes it mana read more
