What our students say
Jing Liao, China. MSc International Business Economics
Oxford Brookes actually offered a lot of support to international students. That was one thing that I found and I was grateful for. Any issues you have you can talk to them.
Jolomi Okome, Nigeria. MSc International Trade and Logistics
I like the interaction with students and lecturers. After lectures we have seminars and I learn a lot in the seminars because you are free to discuss and contribute.
Zachary Hornback, Columbia College, USA. Study Abroad student.
Oxford Brookes is excellent for the academics. It's also magnificent for the social scene, I think it's the balance of the two that makes it an amazing university to go to.
Mansi Desai, India. Research student and social sciences.
It's not only about the education that goes on in Brookes, there are a lot of different aspects. The support that you get, the facilities that you have, the social aspect of it.
Olufemi Olufon, Nigeria. Pre-Master's Certificate and MSc International Real Estate
The major reason for me to do this course was because I had been out of a school environment for a while, and to come into a new country I felt the course would offer me an opportunity to ease myself into the system.
Awista Ayazi, Afghanistan. LLM International Law.
We have seminars and practical applications of what we are learning. I feel I have absorbed more here than in the 17 years I have been in school.
Zohail Ishaq, Pakistan. International Foundation Diploma Programme.
It’s a mixed culture, here every third or forth person is an international student and you can meet many different nationalities in this city, Oxford.
Anna Khlusova, Russia, International Foundation Diploma, then BA Film Studies/ History of Art.
I really love Oxford. The best thing is the cultural thing – it’s a small city with such a great, historical centre and there are so many things to do – there are cinemas, theatres, bowling and ice-skating.
Ahmed Mohammad Sarki, Nigeria, MSc Public Health.
People who went to the UK to study and came back to Nigeria seem to be well trained. Studying at Brookes is not just about getting a certificate and leaving. It builds you to become a professional in the field you have chosen.
Jessica Groppi, Italy, General English.
I think the main thing is that we got to improve our speaking and listening a lot. All the teachers were very helpful and they explained in a very clear manner. I have never had the chance to speak English at home, so it was rather good.
Ivy Wanjiku Migue, Kenya, BA Law and Psychology.
I did a lot of modules, I could pick the extra ones and mix psychology with it. I think that because the lecturers I’ve got are very passionate about what they do, and are also researching in the field that they’re teaching, it did inspire me.
Sahil Sankla, India, BSc Construction Project Management..
I lived in Warneford halls of residence during my first year. That’s very close to the university and I met people from all over the world and I had UK flatmates as well. Living in halls means you make so many friends.
