Course recommendations
Courses are pretty high standard and require a very good command of English. International students usually stick to themselves (except American students) as most find it hard to break into the British communities.

Personal comments
Be warned that it is very hard to achieve high grades here. If you have the option to undertake coursework, you should do it since it is a lot tougher in the exam.

Course recommendations
Avoid to take too many courses with essays to submit: it is a lot of work and all deadlines are generally at the same time.

I prefer the system we have in my home university with a lot of projects and small pieces of work throughout the course on an individual or group basis: the weight of the final exam is less important.

From October 2004 the Manchester School of Management/UMIST will belong to the Manchester Business School/The University of Manchester. It will be one of the best universities in the UK, so it's worth going there.

Sometimes courses were too theoretical. More practical approaches could have been better to understand the concepts.
