History can be found at every turn, and every corner, as you walk the streets of this architectural marvel of a city, and at Powis Place and Fraser Studios you are just a short 15-minute walk away from one of the universities in the country. Links can be found to the University of Aberdeen as far back as 1495, beautiful medieval (中世纪的) campus to back up its claims.
It makes it the fifth oldest university in the whole of the UK, and as a result it has always been a regarded higher education establishment. It has been voted the 2019 Scottish University of the Year and ranked in the Top 30 Universities in the UK in 2019. It attracts people from all over the UK and abroad. With distance learning choices, it is an attractive proposition to many students. The Sir Duncan Rice Library has perfect views of the entire city and beaches, and the university has one of the largest medical campuses in the whole of Europe.
Aberdeen University Students’ Association (AUSA) is home to over 150 societies and hundred activities relating to those societies. It ensures that whatever you are interested in you are well served when moving to the city as a student. It is a fantastic way to meet and make new friends with people from all over the world. Within the Union there is a café and a shop, with many food outlets providing daily refreshments (茶点) during breaks between lectures and study. There are also plenty of volunteering and training opportunity to take part in, whether you are looking for a hobby, to help others, to present your CV, or all of the above.
The University of Aberdeen certainly holds some reputations, home to five previous Nobel Prize winners, an internationally-focused university in teaching and research, and even its very own tartan created in 1992 to celebrate the university’s 500th anniversary.
