The Students' University

(5)·By Anna R·Psychology· Jun 2023
The University of Dundee is so filled to the brim with heart. Staff will always go above and beyond to help you, as will other students. The facilities are great, wonderful library, gym and campus in general. I'd highly recommend studying at the University of Dundee.

Law / Legal Studies, Year 2

(5)·By Annie M·Law· Jul 2021
Freshers week was great fun. I was able to meet loads of new people. I was also able to fully enjoy my uni experience The accommodation is pretty nice by uni standards. Cheaper than other unis but as usual it was still overpriced compared to private rent prices The facilities were really good. The uni has a great library that has plenty of resources. The union is amazing and can't wait to be back in it I find the course very interesting. The lectures are good and flow at a quick pace The city is great for students. Plenty to do and see and great for hanging out with friends.

Urban Planning, Year 3

(5)·By Isla B·Urban Planning· Jul 2021
It was brilliant in first year I really enjoyed Freshers and they had a welcome night for my course. Really nice to meet everyone before classes started! The university accommodation is quite expensive but worth it to live on campus. If you wants don't cheaper accommodation there are private companies for half the price All the facilities are great and kept up to a high standards. Student union is a fun night too! The course is small so you get to know everyone well especially your lecturers Dundee is small which is actually quite nice because it means everything is within walking distance

The courses they do are ground breaking and they offer so may great sports and interesting societies! Such a lovely campus that's is not far away from anything! Dundee is also such an inexpensive place to live and it's so up and coming

Anatomy and physiology, Third Year

(5)·By Kira B·Anatomy· Oct 2018
Fantastic, certain lecturers are so good at getting you excited about what you're learning, and when you aren't in classes there's a brilliant library to take advantage of, as well as the student union which is so much fun on nights out as well as just grabbing a coffee there during the day. It doesn't matter what kind of student you are, our uni has great options regardless, and have been good at supporting my mental health problems.

Education, Year 1

(5)·By Danielle S·Education / Teacher Training· Oct 2018
Dundee has been a fantastic place to study. When I first came here for my interview, I knew immediately that this is where I wanted to be. Since starting my course, I have felt so welcomed by all the students, staff and the atmosphere.

The University provides students with so much; there are so many sports facilities, societies, and general things to do.
I joined the trampolining club and attend when I have time to go, but there is no pressure.

Geography & Environmental Science

(5)·By C H·Geography· Jun 2023
I studied the BSc Joint honours Geography and Environmental Science at Dundee and I loved it! The course was great and with loads of modules to choose from it really exposes you to all the avenues of geography. Field trips to Aviemore and Iceland were amazing and you get to know your coursemates really well. I learned a lot in my course and the lecturers are great too. Dundee is a great place to be a student, the Union was good fun and there are plenty of societies to join. I recommend geography at Dundee!

Anatomy and Physiology, Year 3

(5)·By Craig·Medicine· Oct 2018
The moment I left the open day at Dundee Uni I knew it was the place I wanted to spend the next 4 years of my life. With a best friend already studying here, I had visited already and couldn't wait to come myself.
The campus was well laid out with everything you need in close proximity, the staff and students friendly as could be and the night life is top notch.

The prestige for biology and research was already high, but I came to realise Dundee provided so much more. With so many ways to get involved within the ethos of the uni as a whole, and with an endless list of opportunities which present themselves daily, it's easy to see why we're Scottish University of the Year 2 years running!

Dundee University offers many exciting g opportunities for students. The nightlife is exceptional, especially with such a central campus, everything is in easy walking distance. Also the quality of learning is high with opportunities to speak to graduates and prospective employers events regularly.

Nursing, Year 2

My university experience has been good with various opportunities in sports and societies. I have made lots of new friends and it really helped when I was moving from a different country that other people felt the same way I did.
