The University of Nottingham is a thriving university based in the heart of the UK. As one of six Science Cities in the country, Nottingham is committed to innovative new research and the latest technology. The University offers around 400 degree programmes, with taught and research postgraduate opportunities widely available.

There are 35,000 students from 150 different countries currently registered on courses at The University of Nottingham's campuses in the UK, China and Malaysia. Students and academics travel from all corners of the globe to be part of the University, offering a unique international education experience to both scholars and staff.

A dedicated International Office provides comprehensive support to international students, offering guidance on qualifications, applications and scholarships. International Officers are on hand to deal with everything from initial enquiries to postgraduate opportunities. Each International Officer looks after students from a specific country and members of the team regularly take overseas visits to meet new and prospective students.

You can spend part of your degree abroad; at our campuses in Malaysia and China, with one of our many Erasmus and Study Abroad partners or within the U21 global network of universities.

The University has campuses across the city of Nottingham. The main University Park site is set in 330 acres of parkland. The Sutton Bonington campus, set in the picturesque Nottinghamshire countryside, houses the School of Biosciences and the School of Veterinary Medicine and Science.

These traditional campuses contrast with the stunning Jubilee Campus. Built in 1999 to a set of sustainable guidelines, the modern campus is home to the International Office and the School of Education, as well as the state-of-the-art Business School and the new Research & Innovation Park.

Medical students are based at the prestigious Queen's Medical Centre (QMC). Close to University Park, the working hospital provides an opportunity to experience life in a professional setting.

We're one of the UK's most popular universities, with nine applications received for each place every year. Information on how you can apply is available on our website.
