Thank you! :smile:

I've read a few threads saying similar things, so it shouldn't be too terrible!

Hi guys,

I'll be doing my masters of research in International Business at Birkbeck this October, one year, full-time.
Anyone else in the same boat as me?

Cheers
Maya

I have no idea! I know there's a Student Central (used to be UoL Union/ULU) freshers daytime event, though.

There is a Birkbeck Freshers' Fayre on the 25th september 2014 between 16:30-20:00 so hopefully we get to see some of the younger students there.

I'm studying Financial Economics with Accounting and now i'm starting to think ill be the youngest one there :s-smilie:

im only 18
By the sounds of things looks like there is little to no social aspect to birkbeck and can only hope to make friends outside of the university

Exactly, I don't know anyone in London and it'll really suck if I don't make friends at uni... Also there are lots of events going on for freshers at other unis, I dont wanna miss that at BBK.
