We have good experience

The course is well structured and the modules are relevant to real-world industry needs. The teaching is a good mix of lectures, seminars, and practical sessions, which makes learning more interesting. Lecturers are approachable and supportive, and they respond to emails within a reasonable time. The blended learning system also helps because materials are uploaded online for revision.

Worst aspects / Improvements:
Sometimes the timetable can be busy, and assignment deadlines are close together, which can be stressful. In some modules, more practical examples and real industry case studies would improve understanding. It would also be helpful to have more career-focused workshops and networking opportunities related to the course.

Home away from Home

The fact that I have a feeling of home away from Home at the University of east London is so great. Sometimes I really wish I can freeze time while in school. I love UEL🥰🤭💯

UEL experience

The University ultimately is really good in terms of the opportunities it provides through career zone, the activities, workshops, industry networking, free gym and many more, but when it comes to teaching not all lecturers explain clearly but that is highly dependent on the lecturer themselves. I currently work and study at UEL and the work environment is exquisite and safe, I have had no reason to worry. I am studying computing for business and most of our lecturers are excellent teachers and are easy to talk to.

AVOID -- they treat you awfully if you are bereaved

I disengaged from the university due to a bereavement (my father died). I tried to re-engage but was met with bureaucratic doom loops. One year in they are saying I need to pay twice for my outstanding module, have even instructed lawyers to pursue payment, and are offering a capped grade.

I am constantly refereed back and forth to different departments and appeals processes. They clearly do not review evidence. I am having to relive elements of a traumatic period in my life constantly by re-providing evidence of my father's death, GP notes about my mental health during that period.

Zero compassion or respect for their students. Money grabbing evil institution - AVOID.

You will not be treated fairly if you encounter an unfortunate life event during your studies.

New postgrad

It is the beginning only, and l’ve had truly positive experience from the MAPP teaching team. I could feel the teaching team/lecturers are professional, supportive, and have a great sense of humor. I also like how their respective modules are very organized and with great instruction to follow along. Will come back here to see if my first impressions stay unchanged.
