Ancient university

Inspirational city

As it celebrates its 525th year, the University of Aberdeen welcomes applicants from Northern Ireland to join its supportive community in a self-contained, stunning campus.

At Aberdeen, we consider the quality of our teaching and student experience to be of paramount importance. Numerous indicators of teaching, student satisfaction and research excellence place Aberdeen in the highest tier of UK universities. Enhanced Study

In recent years over £280 million has been spent on new facilities with another £288 million planned investment over the coming years. Recognised as Scotland’s Safest City (Unbroken Britain Survey, Provident Financial 2018), we pride ourselves on an environment that welcomes new students and supports them on what can be a challenging phase in their lives.

Flexibility and individuality are our real strengths. We call this flexibility ‘Enhanced Study’. It provides the much needed versatility and adaptability necessary for gaining employment in the 21st century. This means that, whilst studying one main subject, there are opportunities to study other subjects and even change course.
