University of Leeds

A University of Leeds degree offers you much more than just academic excellence. Our world-class reputation for inspirational teaching and exceptional research is just the start.

We have a student population of over 33,000 from more than 150 countries and our single-site campus, one of the largest in the UK, is just a short walk from the city centre. Leeds is a great place to study and live, with plenty of opportunities for going out and having fun. We have an active student union, with more than 300 clubs and societies, and an award-winning student newspaper, TV and radio station.

The research-based Leeds curriculum, combined with an unparalleled range of opportunities that complement your course, means you can make your time with us a unique experience: one that is shaped around your individual goals, interests and career ambitions. We’re in the top 5 UK universities for graduate recruitment (The Graduate Market in 2017, High Fliers Research) and top 10 for research power in the UK (REF, 2014). We’re also in the top 100 universities in the world (QS World University Rankings, 2016) and were named University of the Year 2017 by The Times and The Sunday Times’ Good University Guide.
