Placement
Jobs depend upon the curriculum you take and opportunities are quite good here. The only challenge sometimes could be getting an organisation sponsor you for T2. If you could get pass through that.. then it is great. There are jobs in IT field.
The admission process was smooth and university helped a lot. Process starts from November/ December and should be applied as soon as possible in order to get a few scholarship/ bursaries. I applied in april and the process was smooth. Got my results in June and thereafter everything is quite oriented and international support is pretty good throughout as well.
Placement
Well done, all the bigwigs come to career fairs two to three times a year. All technical and corporate roles are offered. Undergraduates benefit more from placements.
The faculty, course structure, location, and students were the main attractions for me to choose Southampton University.
Placement
There are a lot of them but many are based on maths, finance, and economics. There is not a variety of humanities students. There is little emphasis on arts-based opportunities or media-based internships, something I would have greatly appreciated.
It had a really good course reputation, I loved the campus, the open days were really good. There was a really good range of areas to study and it offered interesting modules that weren't available at other colleges.
It's the best ranked in the subject area. The subject itself was also very good compared to another university and the university impressed on an open day. Plus it's in a great location and the campus is very nice.
