What students say about music-studies

The staff are absolutely amazing, the course is excellent, student life is bustling. They could improve their social media presence and marketing in general. It'd be nice to see a stronger bigger reputation for this place really. It'd be ideal if they taught us about social media and how best to use it, as it is SO IMPORTANT for musicians to know!

What students say about music-studies

Everything about UoB is great! Especially being an international student, UoB has provided me with a sense of warmth and welcoming and has created an environment that feels like a home away from home. The exposure we have as university students to the field of careers is amazing. And the university also has an amazing careers connect team that provide one-to-one support from mock interviews to CV reviews. The academic faculty is filled with professors who are experts in their chosen fields.

What students say about music-studies

I think that the best part of the university is the availability of software and equipment, especially for my course since a lot of software and equipment are needed that could range from a price on hundreds to thousands. However, this could be improved because there are still some software and equipment that aren’t available yet or that aren’t the latest versions/models which could help on improving my coursework performance.

I think that the location and lecturers at BIMM London are amazing, however the campus does not have as much atmosphere as other Universities I have visited. I also do not believe that there is enough spaces for students to spend breaks and study or socialise around the campus apart from the cafe - which is quite small anyway. I think that BIMM London would definitely benefit from having more areas for students to relax and ‘chill’ in between lessons as Fulham Broadway is quite busy and has more commercial areas than places for students to enjoy. Other than that I think that BIMM London is an amazing university and gives students amazing opportunities.

It has amazing facilities for recording and rehearsing and is open all year round through summer and holidays if you want to work on anything for yourself or for the courses. It has two studios, lots of mac suites with access to logic pro and production software. It has an amazing community of people and everyone gets along with everyone including the staff who are great to talk to.
