I’ve really enjoyed my MA History course at Birmingham. Seminars are small and discussion-focused, and lecturers are approachable specialists who provide detailed feedback on essays and dissertations. Support is excellent, with personal tutors, dissertation supervisors, and all lecturers offering regular office hours that anyone can drop into, making it easy to get guidance and stay on top of postgraduate study.

The cost can be extremely expensive for international students, but It’s the average level in Britain education system, if a student chooses to study in London or choose business school, the cost can be much more higher, so there are nothing to complain. The quality of education is extremely great, the resources to study is rich and the atmosphere is free and supportive, the teachers are highly professional in their field and so patient and responsive to students. Great experiences to study in that program. read more

History has been an excellent course at the University of Birmingham and has been taught to a very high standard throughout my degree. The level of contact hours has been reasonable overall, although I would have appreciated slightly more, particularly in second and third year where they decreased quite noticeably. That said, this reduction was largely balanced by the increased independent workload, especially in third year due to the dissertation, which made the structure manageable. The quality of teaching has been consistently strong, and I have particularly valued one-to-one meetings and personal tutor sessions, which have been extremely helpful. The course content itself has also been engaging and well designed. Overall, my experience studying History at the University of Birmingham has been very positive. read more

History at UOB is bad value for money. I’m assuming history elsewhere is the same cause the contact hours are so low but we’re really out here paying about 40 quid for one lecture read more

For me personally, the rating for course content is quite low. This is very subjective, however. I've very much enjoyed my course so far, and I am looking forward to taking a year studying abroad and using the University's immense resources to aid my dissertation. read more
