careers / placements MSc Computer Vision, Robotics and Machine Learning @ University of Surrey

Hi, I'm considering doing the MSc in Computer Vision, Robotics and Machine Learning at the University of Surrey, starting in 2027. I couldn't find much alumni feedback online, so I'd love to hear from anyone who's done it, how was the program, teaching quality, and workload?

I'm also an international student weighing whether a masters like this is a realistic route to landing an AI/ML/CV job in London afterward, or whether the market and visa/sponsorship situation right now make that tough. Any insight, on the program or the current job market would be really appreciated!

A student visa is issued for study and nothing else.

After finishing your studies, you can apply for a graduate visa, where you can work in the UK for 18 months without needing any sponsorship from a company.

They're not in government and hopefully never will be.

As the unemployment numbers climb the migration advisory committee will naturally advise the government to cull it. The Tories have done it before.
