University of London International Programmes

Hello all. I am interested to have people thoughts on the Economics or Mathematics and Economics course.
I am doing this purely out of personal interest.
I will be studying independently. I am based in the UK.
I am more interested in the mathematical content.

 

It's not any easy program. You need to be very self-directive. I think it's a quality degree from a good school. I sometimes find it helpful to compare programs because delivery varies from place to place. So does customer/student services. Here's a few more you can look at

FWIW, I have no direct experience with UoL external am very familiar based on the experience of a family member. Very rigorous.

 

London International is rigorous. Make sure you have drive and stamina for this.

 

Ok, thank you all for taking the time to reply

 

One more big positive for the University of London is that the price is quite good. When you consider that all the books/material are included I think it compares well with most other schools. Another option is the other big British DL school. the Open University

Hi, I do know of the OU and that the cost of UOL is quite good compared to others.

 

The Open University (my MA is from there) and I really didn't agree with each other. I had two personal tutors, one great and the other... less so. However the course was the only one at the time that would fit around my life hence why I went with it. University of London is perhaps a slightly different approach but I've rarely heard anyone criticise the standard of it. The OU is a bit of a Marmite approach, I have some colleagues who loved it and did several degrees there in various disciplines.
