Indonesia
Students from Indonesia will find plenty of attractions in the UK’s second largest city, home to 65,000 students. Birmingham is a vibrant and multicultural city, with award-winning restaurants, busy bars and nightlife, international artists such as Lady Gaga and Katy Perry playing the arenas, and sports.
On campus, you’ll find many places to socialise, from our own Students’ Union traditional pub – The Eagle & Ball – through to specialist societies including Anime & Manga, BCU DJ Society, Online Gaming, Rock Society, the Harry Potter Society, and even Yoga. We also have 30 sports teams you can get involved in from basketball to cheerleading, rock climbing to swimming, and volleyball to tennis.
We have a number of successful students from Indonesia. One of our Indonesian students, Gerald Prayogo, made the headlines recently when he came second in The Remix, an Indonesian TV talent contest. We maintain excellent contacts with our graduates living and working in the country.
