Birmingham
A central city, with diverse communities and day-to-day life that is often more affordable than London.
We do not run campuses and we do not present university partnerships. The descriptions are general.
Why people consider the city
Birmingham is considered by people who want a large city without starting from London costs. It has universities and a centre well connected to the rest of the country.
Transport and day-to-day life
The city has rail, bus and a local transport network. Check the distance between home, work and campus before assuming it is simply “in Birmingham”.
The study environment
The study environment differs by institution: a compact campus or buildings spread through the city. We do not choose for you and we do not guarantee a place.
The career environment
The city has employers in professional services, health, industry and retail. Your own direction matters more than the city’s general reputation.
Things to weigh
- The real cost difference from the city you live in now
- Rail links if you keep a job elsewhere
- The exact campus of the course
- The community you would feel all right living in
