The best part of Oxford Brookes University is that you get to study diverse courses. I study Applied Human Nutrition and I’m glad I chose this course for my masters degree, I’m blessed with the best faculty and I’m grateful for their support and encouragement. You get to experience a lot of other things apart from just academics. You get to meet guest lecturers from different fields, you get the opportunity to get connected to a lot of people from the nutrition industry, the best part is the careers event which happened on 8th February this year. You get lot of insight from the lecturers and also the centre for academic development is a great place to get help from. The campus is great. Coming to the worst aspects, I don’t think there’s any particular aspect but like any new student you just get overwhelmed initially when all of a sudden you shift to another place but you will always find help from someone or the other over here.

My course is MSc Applied Human Nutrition, one year duration and it is a in class learning course. I have six modules , the first semester covers Research methods, Food science and Fundamentals of Human Nutrition modules and the second semester covers Global nutrition and Public health , Nutrition, Activity and Health , Health Promotion & Professional Practice modules. Each lecture duration is three hours and the time table is flexible. You get to learn a lot from the course content. For this you will have exams, assignments and presentations. It is important to know that the content is very much heavy since every needs to be completed or taught within a year. I would say this is a challenging course yet interesting and it is definitely worth it. Coming to dissertation, we will be allocated to project supervisors who will guide us throughout the project. You get to experience many things during this learning process and it is quite useful for your career.

I’m quite happy with my accommodation, I’m glad that I chose crescent, it is not far from university and also it is near to grocery store. It is situated in Crescent road Temple Cowley. You get to stay with six other flatmates. You have shared kitchen and bathrooms. It’s all about adjustments and get along with other people. It’s a nice experience and you get to live with people from different places. There is nothing bad I could say about crescent hall, I’m happy to choose it again if at all I need to continue to be here.
