MA interdisciplinary futures the University of Edinburgh

I've just received an offer for MA in interdisciplinary futures at the Uni of Edinburgh's futures institute.
It's a very new course, and I'm unsure about attending. Edinburgh is a great school and beautiful city, but I'm curious about the student satisfaction rate, as it is quite low!

i have just received an offer as well and am unsure. Did you end up going for the course? If so how is it? And if not, why not?

My daughter also received an offer for this course and is seriously considering it as she likes the flexibility it provides. What other courses are you considering and what drew you to this course?

I was also really drawn to the flexibility of the course and have always been interested in sustainability. I really like the Edinburgh Future's Institute and it would be amazing to be studying under the department. But....I have some reservations. There doesn't seem to be anything online about current students taking the course and the size of the cohort is not clear (the core modules are open to everyone in the university so the actual modules might have quite a few students but it's unclear the number of students doing the actual course). Do you think I have missed something?

She feels the same. We are going to go to the open day in April and ask a lot of questions re: size of cohort and structure. I think a course like this could be amazing but only if one can structure the additional courses to exhibit a clear focus on a discipline. This will largely come down to how robust tutoring/mentoring support from staff there is for each student to create their own unique “brand”.

Yes! I totally agree. I wonder if I could ask you a favour. As I live on Saint Helena Island, I unfortunately cant attend the open day. If you could share with me your findings and thoughts that would be great. Thanks v much.

Hey! i have been offered this course aswell. i have read everything and totally agree with what u guys are saying. i was also accepted into business and psychology though and not sure of what one i’m going to choose. i love the flexibility and just broadness of this degree but not sure if it would be stricter or secure as its brand new. like would i be able to do psychology and business as part of the course as a module? i would love to talk to the people who have been accepted if u guys could get in touch

My daughter has similar interests. DM me your details and I will put you in touch.

I feel like it depends if you want to be a lawyer, but if you’re unsure if you want to be one it seems like a good course to take. Just curious, did you get an offer today?
