Oxford University specialities

Oxford is reputed for its outstanding reputation and its college system, which generates a unique, intense and international atmosphere. The MSc in Computer Science consists of lecture parts as well as a dissertation phase. This allows students to familiarize themselves with a specific area of study and afterwards do some real scientific work in it, regardless of whether or not they have a background in Computer Science. The MSc in Computer Science allows you to build an individual course that incorporates knowledge from several areas of computing. It aims to provide you with a diverse range of skills so that you will be able to produce optimal solutions in hybrid projects which are increasingly widespread in industry.


Computing solutions often combine different disciplines. For example, web technology combines networking, human-computer interface and intelligent systems, whereas high-speed networks may use concepts from artificial intelligence and have intelligent front ends. If you have substantial experience in the computing industry and would like to gain a qualification that reflects your expertise, this course could be for you.



One of the constant highlights throughout the year was the unique Oxford community and the amazing range of social activities.You can play soccer in the University College MCR team and enjoyed numerous parties, social evenings, balls etc. Having visited Oxford university situated in a beautiful city and it has a very good Computing Laboratory with strong international reputation.


MSc in Computer Science holds a wide range of courses means that there is something for everyone –from artificial intelligence, Intelligent Systems and machine Learning and so on. Most of the course work emphasizes theory over practice, but the flexibility regarding the personal project is fantastic and allowed me to look at some practical applications of what I had learnt. The MSc offered the right balance between research preparation and filling in the gaps in the knowledge of Computer Science.

Why You Should Not Opt For IIT Bombay

This article is written by IITians in the blog Actors Imran and Anushka during a cultural program at IIT Bombay If asked to compare IIT Bombay to IIT Delhi, most students say that the difference is negligible. Both are in metropolitan cities with good options for hostels, PG accommodations, food and entertainment. Cultural activities are equally good as is the faculty and study methodology. Even placements at the two IITS are amongst the best in the country. Yet figures indicate that the top JEE rank holders prefer Computer Science Engineering at IIT Mumbai rather than IIT Delhi. But, we are here to tell you when and why you can avoid IIT Mumbai. Mumbai IIT was earlier placed in the suburbs, away from the crowds, giving IITians the space and peace to pursue their career goals. Today the area in Powai is surrounded by high rise building, malls and traffic snarls, bringing with it all the clatter and patter of a metropolitan hub. Just like the population and popular

Story of a B-Tech engineer’s love for music

Passion is one where everybody wants to plunge in. You may be forced to pursue alien paths in life. But your passion may be just opposite to that. Whatever, if you do a bit of research, you will get a path. Higher education is a world you have to choose carefully. That can lead you to peace and prosperity. Why I write this now is when I got a letter from a parent who is suffering from his son’s adamant approach to pursue a programme in music. As a parent he is not against music. But the thing is that, his son is an engineer. He had done his B-Tech from a premier tech-college of India- NIT. Now the son is working as an electrical engineer in a good firm in Bahrain. He draws around Rs.1 lakh per month. This is a good salary for a student who just now starts his career. But now the son wants to pursue his private passion- Music. He is an ardent music lover. His first few months salary was spent for setting up a studio at home. He bought few good expensive instruments and music equipmen
