Excellent job prospects. Never had any context with my personal tutor. As an English student paying the fees I did, the value for money wasn’t the greatest. read more

Overall I’m very happy with the psychology course, it is very engaging and has a good level of depth and challenges your ability at a level that is attainable. I think the economics course is not as enjoyable or accessible. The teaching quality isn’t great and the management it’s very good. read more

Since I do not pay anything for the course, therefore I give five stars. I cannot compare to any other university, so it's hard to say. For instance in the University of Helsinki the students have gone through the same content in physics by the third year of theor studies. According to a friend of mine, who compared the course catalogues. read more
