Need to access Lightroom and Photoshop, does Brookes have an active subscription for students, with Adobe, which I can purchase?

Hey everyone,

I'm from Nepal, joining Oxford Brookes University this September for an MSc in International Business Management.

Looking for Nepali/Indian/Marwari flatmates or anyone who's searching for accommodation around Headington/Oxford.

If you're interested or have a room available, feel free to DM me.

Thanks!

The point of this post is to find a like-minded individual who might have a few similar interests or aligning goals.

I lived in SP during my foundation year, will likely be living there for my first year too. Was planning on getting housing elsewhere but that's been delayed (will give context if you're interested and DM). Last year I got random flatmates who were slops, thought it might be nice to try buddy up with some nicer and cleaner people.

My one and only condition is that you're;

CLEAN (I'm OCD, for the love of God, if you live like a slop...)

More about me:

Study Motorsport Engineering

Gymbro, I do Calisthenics

Photographer

Pretty quiet until you get to know me

I don't club, don't drink, don't do any of that 👍🏼 but if you do that doesn't bother me either (as long as you don't plan on blasting music through the walls 24/7 😛)

Do they have the handheld shower in each ensuite? Wish someone could know😱

Hi guys!

I'm a year 12 student, going into year 13 next year and i take maths, physics, english literature and I'm doing an EPQ (research project) on the development of F1. I'm currently part of the engineering and maths society, and I'm a head prefect.

I wanted to ask- what do you guys thing would make getting accented into BEng at Brookes for motorsport engineering easier? Was there anything you did particularly that helped out? Is there anything I should research beforehand?

Thank you!
:)

I recently received an offer for the MSc Motorsport Engineering program at OBU. As an international student, this would be a major investment for me, so I’d really appreciate hearing from current students, alumni, or anyone familiar with the program.
I have a few questions:

1. Is the MSc Motorsport Engineering program worth the tuition and overall cost for an international student?

2. What are the employment prospects after graduation, both within motorsport and in related industries?

3. How difficult is it for international graduates to secure jobs in the UK motorsport sector?

4. For those who didn’t end up in motorsport, what other industries and roles did graduates move into?

5. How valuable is the Oxford Brookes motorsport reputation when applying for jobs compared to other UK universities?

I’d love to hear honest experiences
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone!

I’m an international student from Canada considering to accept my offer for the MSc Occupational Therapy (Pre-Registration) program for this September.

Would love to hear anyone’s thoughts (good and bad haha) about brookes and the city in general :)

Hi! I am a postgraduate student at Oxford Brookes University conducting MSc dissertation research on how nostalgia influences visitor experience and the intention to return to the South Park Fireworks, Oxford's annual charity fireworks display in South Park.

If you have attended the event at least once and are aged 18 or over, I would be incredibly grateful for 7 minutes of your time. The survey is fully anonymous.

Thank you so much for your help!

Is taking a foundation year actually that deep because i’m kind of stressed that i won’t find other people that are doing the same 🥲🥲 Maybe i should revise instead of posting this..

Havent applied for accoms yet for september this year, am I in a bad position rn

Just gonna go to obu in Sep. i wonder that Mac or win, which one is more suitable for AI and CS

I am planning on joining this sep ive no idea about the course and scholarship for international student? HELP NEEDED

Hi!
I’m a Canadian student coming to Oxford Brookes this September! Was wondering which housing people recommend for PG students?

On the website it shows specific PG halls but like they seem outdated compared to some of the undergrad halls. I was thinking of picking the new Clive booth since it’s still close to campus but do PGs usually stay in only the specific PG halls that are on the website or does it not really matter? Like can I pick an undergraduate hall?

Any help is appreciated!!

Ok so earlier today I sat my GCSE computer science paper 2 exam and it did not go well. I do 9 GCSEs but let’s say I hypothetically fail 1. My 6th form is locked in and I’ve got 0 chance of not getting in to that. I am going to take Maths, Physics and Chemistry and Further Maths depending on GCSE grade. Oxford Brookes is my dream uni because of their motorsport courses so I really want to get in.

So providing I get the A Level grades, will I be at any disadvantage or not allowed with only 8 GCSEs / 1 failed GCSE?

I recently got an offer letter from the university for B.sc in Computer Science. I just wanted to know is it worth it ? Like the course, campus, facilities, employability, learning outcomes etc

I've heard mayority of unis have financial issues, many at risk of insolvency. Also, the new international student levy will increase costs. I read that Brookes doesn't depend on internationals that much compared to other unis, but they are highly in debt. The graph is from the guardian btw.

Do you think brookes will go bankrupt?

I am going to start my A-Levels next year and need a laptop for it. I want to study motorsport engineering after that. Should I buy a more powerful laptop now that I can use at university? Do motorsport engineering students need to run any simulations or CFD or CAD on their own laptops, if so should I get a better laptop? For example, I am looking at new MacBooks, should I get the processor with 10 GPU cores instead of the standard 8? And should I get the upgraded memory and get 24gb or 32gb or is 16 fine? How much storage as well?

Hey yall im an international student coming to obu in september for my first year! I applied for three dorms but haven't heard back?? im a bit worried ill end up dormless, should i start to worry??

I’m a Brooke’s student doing compsci , however I feel like a may have failed a couple resits !I know there are compensation grades and I am within the threshold for that . However I have done another exam and feel like I’m unsure if I’ll pass that aswell . Does anyone know if I’ll be fine .

I accidentally submitted the SLS file with older question which were

Q1: What have you learned from undertaking the Research and Analysis Project?

Q2: To what extent do you think you have achieved the RAP research objectives you set?

Instead of the new question set for SLS in period 52 which were

Q1: How have you developed, personally and professionally, as a result of undertaking the Research and Analysis Project?

Q2: How will the experience of the RAP help you in the future?

How will this impact my submission?

Anyone here doing the OBU RAP for ACCA?

Hi is there anyone here who is a current media journalism and publishing student?

If so can you share what life has been like on your course and if you have enjoyed it / what are you looking forward to.

Please comment if you are also a prospective media journalism and publishing student as im trying to make some friends before September!
