    Spent the best three years of my life ❤️. I studied Biomedical Sciences and I subsequently started a PhD in AI in healthcare thanks to the connections, support and training offered by this university. Qmul has excellent teaching staff and great facilities! A very nice campus! Really a great university!

    The only two things this university gave me are depression and a huge student debt that I will probably never repay back in full. They completely hid from me the fact that you CAN CHANGE your major if you are struggling in Year 1 and not enjoying the course. They knew I disliked my course and yet forced me to stay. I graduated three years ago and am still recovering from the awful experience. If you decide to go there, you will only be seen as a number. Your emotional wellbeing won't matter to most people. Although I do have to mention that the Disability team that assigned me a mentor pretty much saved my life, they were the only ones who showed kindness (+Rosine from Extenuating Circumstances Team). They are the only reason I somehow managed to complete the course that I had so despised. Also, Matt Jacobsen is rather procrustean and ruthless man who has no empathy and should not be teaching vulnerable students. He was fully aware of my struggles with social anxiety, yet he picked on me and embarrassed me in front of the whole class. He also shouted at me when I came to his office (DURING HIS OFFICE HOURS) for not booking an appointment? He made me CRY and yet he kept on shouting at me... I never came back to his class and failed it as a result. I am not exaggerating when I say that this must have been one of the most humiliating moments of my entire life. I get severe anxiety every time I think about my experience with this university. I went to do my masters elsewhere and am extremely happy with my current university and my only regret is all the £££, tears and time wasted on QMUL. It might be a Russell Group uni, but I honestly can't name a single person that actually enjoyed studying there. Not worth it. plus, the area is not exactly safe. A lot of drugs and gang related crime. I even got followed by some man once when walking to campus from Whitechapel to Mile End. Yuk. So glad it's over.

    It’s already Week 3 now and most of our timetables are not complete yet. Students don’t know the exact time and location of some classes. We definitely have written a lot of emails asking for adjustments but in vain. WE ARE HELPLESS. I understand there are a lot of things to do for the staff, but hey…we paid 25k a year….we DO NOT deserve this quality of service at all.

    Great University to study at, the teachers are specialists providing great knowledge, the facilities are superb and as a Masters student the Graduate Centre rooftop study area has some of the most amazing views across London, which is pretty cool whilst working on projects. One downside is the attitude from senior management towards lecturer's and teachers I've witnessed, which is unacceptable as strikes had to be continued throughout the academic year disrupting students experiences and the teachers welfare. The Uni does feel like it's being run as a corporate business too much, where students and staff have felt this continuously. This should not be the case as the Uni makes a great amount of money, so staff should feel appreciated and listened to. Overall, I've studied in a different London university previously and have experienced different campuses, however I must say QMUL is one of the best in London and would recommend to anyone as you do feel richer in knowledge from studying here.

    As an MSc Astrophysics student, I am enjoying my time here at the moment. I think they have an excellent Physics faculty. Happy to be a student here. Hoping to graduate soon. Edit: I have now graduated! :)

    Not much positive experiences. The only good thing about the university is the friends I've made but Queen Mary gets zero credit on that front. They SUCK at responding to emails. It takes them weeks to answer a question so good luck if it is a time sensitive question. It takes them WEEKS approving loan requests so good luck on that front. Half my first year was strikes and protests and such so I wasted over 6,000 pounds for my second semester that year and when I applied for a refund for that semester I was denied even though I had no classes that semester. There are barely any class hours so it is a high price university for really no reason at all. I'm only continuing my education because otherwise my loan from last year would go into effect and I don't have money to start paying that back, otherwise I would stop attending. Five of my friends quit after their first year. Definitely do research into this university before you ever decide to go there.

    Great teaching staff, good administration, quiet area, uni close to the city centre. The campus itself has a lot of facilities, including a club, a gym, small shops and many green areas to study or chill. I graduated in 2018 with a BA in English and I didn't regret my decision. As an international student, I always felt welcome and I managed to learn a lot throughout the 3 year period. Positive experience overall. I definitely recommend this school :)

    Overall study experience is so bad. Not worth the experience and money paid to be a student of UOLQM. Exam papers not sure mark by which cheap random marker. Comments on coursework are close to meaningless. You cannot learn anything from their mean and pointless comments. If you're a real professional, you will laugh at the naive comments they wrote at Turnitin.

    They should start paying their staff properly and stop letting unqualified people with no background in our field of study grade hardworking students’ work. So very unprofessional and unacceptable. We pay 9k a year for what? I do not recommend this university - the lack of respect they have for us (students) and for their own staff is disgusting and appalling.

    Student's feedback is not considered at all. Doing Master there in engineering. Teaching quality is so poor! Lecturers might be renowned researchers but teaching is not for them. It's so disappointing. They literally read off infinite presentation slides, no passion whatsoever. They will teach you the most basic concepts but then give complicated exam questions. Grade distribution makes no sense, they will keep you busy with meaninglessness coursework worth 3% then fail you with exams worth 80% or more. Feedback to courseworks are anything but meaningful. Seriously, if you wanna learn something and don't want to waste your money, don't go to this university.

    They do not care for their students at all. To their staff and teachers you’re no more than a number. People not being able to enter a masters degree and losing one year of their lives because this bunch of lazy and pretentious people won’t do their job. They won’t even answer to emails. Don’t come here.

  • 1/5 Cooped C. 2 years ago on Google
    A money-making machine which has lost the status of a higher education institution under the current leadership. It prioritises recruitment of overseas students paying £27k a year fees who are often misled about the teaching provision available for them, leading to a degradation of the value of the degrees. All the while the leadership attack staff, recently threatening continuous cessation of pay for taking defensive action against severe cuts to their pensions, pay and conditions, as their workloads explode with the aggressive recruitment for profit and high salaried executives. A really sad loss of integrity and standards at what was once a progressive, public university.

    I hard working, smart and incredibly passionate about biomedical science but this university would not accept me for my BTEC in science. I feel that this is unfair and that they MUST re-evaluate their entry requirements for the Bsc Biomedical science course.

    The staff are completely incompetent at this university, in hindsight I would have chosen a different university. It takes weeks and weeks to get a simple matter resolved. I’m going into my final year (the most important one) and they have completely messed up my module registration it’s honestly embarrassing

    9 Nobel Laureate from QMUL. This tells everything about high standards of research and education at QMUL. Also one of the biggest student campus in or near central London region

    The two stars are for some of the teachers who deserve a much better university to share their talents. The value for the sheer money you pay to go there is just not worth it. The dorm rooms on campus are small like tiny boxes and in possibly the dirtiest area of London- most of all the good things there vanished during the pandemic. The only good thing about campus is the library- 5 floors and an extensive collection of books. Now onto the student support- of which there is none. The counseling department is a complete joke, the health services can only see you for one issue for appointment, and have them booked weeks out. The housing crisis in the UK right now has made it so students are forced to go home, there is no space available on campus for the next year. Save your time, money and tears- the quality of teaching can certainly be found at a different university that actually cares about students.

    Queen Mary University of London is a leading research university distinct for its student-centered learning and deep sense of purpose. The University's academic programs include: undergraduate, graduate and professional, schools and colleges, academic departments, centers and institutes, libraries and collections, global education, as well as non-degree programs.

    Terrible administration, student help desk is unavailable and they don't respond to emails. Lately they have eliminated the phone contact. Nobody cares about important issues such as students exam dates.

    Admission staff are stern with their entry policy for BTEC. Better uni than queen Mary accept Btec students for bio science related subjects. Such a shame this uni has no belief in BTEC students. It would be nice if they at least gave discretionary offers for some Btec students, but admission staff don’t want to hear what we have to say.

    If you’re planning for this university please don’t as they’re a joke. They don’t deserve that ranking. They owe me more than £2000 pounds. I have failed to see how bad the Uni is. Please don’t make the same mistake anyone .if you want proof you can contact me. They don’t reply to my mails anymore. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY.

    Overall, uni is good. The setting was a little confusing but managed to get by. Nice range of subjects offered to study. I would have given 4 stars if it was in another area - Tower Hamlets is a very poor and bad area.

    Qmul has the worst student support services ever. You cannot contact anyone by phone but the Student Enquiry Centre, and when you do, they just tell you to send an email or state that they do not know how to help. I have never in my life come across such a careless academic institution, they do not care about their students wellbeing at all and most of the time leave you drowning in confusion. Do not go here unless you want to be chasing someone up every single day about your problems that have been unresolved for months due to emails that have been unread for months. All of these experiences have led me to believe that QMUL is a careless, disorganised, understaffed and an overall apalling university - especially for what you pay them. Long story short, if you respect yourself as a human being do not go to this university as the people here will not be respecting you or your time.

    This uni is a joke and a filthy place. “Academic advisors” like Mo Sarshar cannot be taken seriously. Avoid at all costs.
