Unfortunately this is a negative review. As a female in mech eng, I have felt ostracised because of the students, but the school of engineering don’t help as females are not evenly distributed in classes (in one class I was one of two girls and all the rest were in the other class) and I think some encouragement would help. The quality of teaching is awful: a lot of the lecturers have poor teaching skills and some lecture slides/notes and resources they hand out make it difficult to teach yourself. There are no personal tutors, only advisors of studies who are useless anyway (I have seen mine once in 3 years and it was organised by me). The school of engineering felt very disorganised in my first and second years. Fourth year is the first year I have noticed an improvement in teaching and general experience, but I felt confusion and lack of preparation going into my final year. There is finally contact with the lecturers for final year projects/dissertations which is nice. read more

The thing is the course's quality has drastically reduced due to remote way of study. I feel that the uni is not trying hard enough to make the course more productive and certain staff do not even reply to some important questions that freshers ask them.

If you are looking for a masters in University of Glasgow in Electronics & Electrical Engineering, please avoid this univeristy for following reasons: 1. There are no electrical based machines in the lab facilites. 2. They teach nothing electrical and advetise a lot using electronics domain of DSP, nano tech and quantum , robotics and these subjects are not taught well at all. 3. They assign a group cohort (both sept and Jan Intake) average grade of sept students exam results of december to the January intake students for awarding the project topic duing April since April-may exams would be declared later only in July. So January intake students are compelled to take the least subscribed projects among their choices. 4. Some of the Project supervisors are from france as visting professors and don't have the curtsey to students to help them in their project and give some vague ideas and they are rude as well. 5. For Jan intakes they don't have niether accomodation facility or resit read more
