Bayes Business School

Cass Business School is unquestionably one of the most global Business Schools in the Britain.When entering Bunhill Row you automatically get a very professional vibe from the building, the staff and the students.The place feels like your at the heart of the financial capital of the world and I would recommend you pay a visit to this world leading institution.

MBA was an amazing two-year learning experience with up-to date curriculum, helpful staff and renowned professors. Very, very hard to combine with full time work, but definitely worth it. Will be coming back through their free “lifetime learning” program with one free elective per year, forever. Only “bad” thing to say about the school is their overly woke attitude that made them change their name from Cass to Bayes. I paid to attend a school with the renowned Cass brand name, but got Bayes Business School (a couple of months after I started) – which no one has ever heard of. Zero brand value, for the next decade(s) at least. Apart from this, amazing school, facilities, staff, students, curriculum and professors.

I undertook the MSc in Banking & International Finance course from Cass in 2009-2010 and had an appalling experience with the lady at the Careers office called Helen Green. It is a shame to note that Cass would hire such a person, she was as racist as they come. To top it all Cass even diluted its brand name by changing its name. Best to spend your money elsewhere

Staff there is rude and irresponsible. He passed the buck to the students when tuition system went wrong, incurring additional fees to students. Some lecturers are harsh. They gave students a very vague coursework instructions, which cause misunderstandings, and then mark the courseworks to give a very low score. Even many students have talked to the lecturers that the questions of courseworks are not well-defined, the lecturers just said he is sorry that you received a low mark. In general, I won't recommend this business school as the study experience has been ruined by many rude staffs and irresponsible lecturers.

If you really want to listen to former students’ fair evaluation, DO PLEASE ignore these fake and trolling five star rating, which seems to be very misleading. If you take one year PG course here, you need to be very careful before making your decision.1. There are not many career or placement opportunities or supports as it claims on its prospectus. So for people who want to use this as a step for your career leader in the city of London, do not be fooled by its location or “advertised” industrial connections on its website.2. The teaching, not all but most part, is very poor of quality. There are no clear pedagogical syllabi or contemporary updates on any models or approaches. Most lecturers are still relied on old version textbooks and content, which make you equipped with absolutely outdated knowledge and leave you totally lost during the job search phase.3. The assessment and feedback are horrible. You are not given clear instructions on what to do. You are not informed with any grading matrix or criteria. However, you will receive simply brief and sometimes even attacking and discriminating comments on your coursework. Some assessments are designed not to help evaluate student knowledge acquisition, but only help to make the lecturer’s job easier. If you love multiple choices, go there. Otherwise, turn down whatever it offers to you.4. Some lecturers, for example, those with “Dean” labels, are academically weak. They did not keep an eye on what is going on. None of them publish on top 5 journals. Most of them are only writing barely innovative papers. The entire school seems not academically active and they are more passionate about marketing and robbing money from students, particularly international ones.

I studied Quantitative Finance master's degree for one term there(double degree with SMU). The professors are excellent, giving lots of study material and keeping you busy with coursework project

I was a student from 1995-1998, BSc business studies with finance, in my humble opinion it is the best business school in the world. World leading lecturers and a truly world leading education. I will ALWAYS be grateful for the education I received there. I went on to have many and varied successful careers, in most part, or wholly due to this school. I send my most sincere thanks to this school.

Excellent business school. Located in the middle of London, it offers useful connections to companies, and easy access to career fairs and recruiting events. Plus, the experience of studying finance in the heart of London is unique.The teaching and courses were of high quality, with most professors having an excellent track record and reputation in the industry. What could definitely be improved is the quality of the admitted students; although most seem to know why they are there and what they look for, some others have no clue and made me wonder how they were admitted in the first place.Good value for money (considering the cost of other schools in the UK), although there are better options if you are willing to pay the difference in fees (and if you actually get admitted).

I attended Cass Business School in 2012-13. Overall, an excellent experience in a very international business school with devoted lecturers and a dynamic student life with a lot of societies and guests.

The building is 6 floors high and the building is very modern and wired. You get STRONG wireless access just about everywhere. The lecture rooms all come with electrical outlets for your laptops. The lecture hall on the basement floor has no power outlets, but good internet connection. The Ground thru floor 3 are for post graduates (MBA and specialist masters), Floor 4 and 5 are for Ph.D candidates and professors, while the 6th floor is for professors, executive MBAs, and staff. There was talk about expanding the height of the building.The library is small. As a student of Cass, you can use LSE's library which is much much better. The library has a very cramped computer lab which is filled with computer that take about 10 minutes to load.Security at Cass is good except for the bike racks. Don't park your bike there on weekends... I learned the hard way.I can't speak for all professors, but the Real Estate and Valuation professors are good. Professor Stevenson (REIAD), Key (Econ and Mkt Analysis), and Rodney (Finance) are excellent.The Course Admin for RE is Zoe and Caroline. Both are nice and helpful, but they're usually really really busy. Support them by attending events and they'll support you. They also often post job opportunities for you to apply for.Career Services are contracted out to individual career consultants with different specialities. They are helpful if you are completely lost in the process. Keep in mind they are only helpful for UK and EU jobs.The classes are large. There's a student teacher ratio of about 50:1 in all my classes.The student population is very diverse. Most students there are very wealthy, so be prepared to spend if you want to socialize. There's a bit of ethnic groups clustering, but most are very friendly.Looking back on it, I'd highly recommend going here for your post-graduate degree. While most people state-side have never heard of Cass, I found it worthwhile. I was hired by a real estate developer within 3 months after graduating.
