The University of Edinburgh is one of the most diverse and cosmopolitan universities in the UK. It has students from approximately 137 countries in the world who account for around 25% of our student population. The School of Engineering is represented by many different nationalities and cultures who all work and study together at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. This is shown by the number of institutes who partner the School from across the world, from China to Germany, the USA to Italy. Studying at the School of Engineering allows you to work with our academics who make these personal links and to benefit from them.
