BSc Finance is a great course but some lecturers are of no help. I can honestly say that I have taught myself 85% of the course. When I ask tutors questions, they tell me to read a book, even though I am paying them to teach me. It’s terrible. The course lacks interactivity as many of the international students do not engage with the course, they fellow students or the lecturers. read more

Well, in short, I missed 95% of lectures and 50% of seminars, studied myself and use some contents online and graduated with a first. That tells you how useless the teaching is. But honestly, there are some really great modules, but its easily outnumbered by the worse ones. read more

If you're an international student, dont bother going to this University, as finance is very much reliant upon the university you go to for networking purposes. Since no employers outside of the EU know what Durham University is, it is therefore worthless. read more
