First Year University Studies in Business and Management

Brunel University of London Pathway College

Overall, the university is good but the difference between the local and international student needs some changes. Mostly the support and expenses which approximately double than local students.

A wonderful place to experience an independent life with roller coaster of emotions. From taking care of one another to fighting your own demons, Brunel is a wonderful place to learn all the twists and turns of life. It’s not just the studying that makes the university life different, it’s the extra stuff apart from studies to that makes it unbearable or extremely pathetic for a reason that even though everything else has been provided by the university but the work life balance, long distanced students with their families facing everything on their own is again a wonderful but harsh memory to keep on to for the far future. It could be improved by a compulsory guidance session before admissions and clarifying every common question that comes in as a barrier.

One of the key strengths of Brunel University is its focus on practical education. The university has invested heavily in state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, allowing students to gain hands-on experience in their chosen field of study. Many courses include a significant amount of practical work, which prepares students for their future careers. The university has a strong research culture, with academics at the forefront of their respective fields. This translates into a high quality of teaching, and students benefit from being taught by experts in their subject areas. Brunel University also provides many opportunities for students to engage in research themselves, which is an excellent way to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Despite its many strengths, there are areas where Brunel University could be improved. The university has been criticized for its lack of social spaces, with some students feeling that there are not enough places to relax and socialize on campus. Additionally, the university fees are very expensive for international students and they only give student finance to home students if possible please provide student finance to international students as well and lower the fees

The university's diversity has to be its best feature; I notice a lot of people there who share my values and cultural background. I meet new individuals from all over the world, and learning about other cultures, languages, and customs is always fascinating. Nothing about university in general that I would characterize as the worst. It's simply that, as an international first-year student, it may often feel very overwhelming, and I'm still figuring out how to help. It's a little comforting to know that you're not the only one going through that challenging time because I have friends who are also overseas students. In my opinion (speaking as an international student), we will undoubtedly be able to make more friends if we have any meet-and-greet events or coffee gatherings where we can interact with other students who are just like us. Cause trust me, the worst feeling I've ever experienced was being homesick and having nobody to hang out with.
