Description

A little off the beaten track, geographically speaking, the University of Aberdeen remains one of Scotland's premier teaching and research institutions. Therefore, you can benefit from the university's academic excellence while studying and living in an environment that feels intimate, relaxed, friendly, and truly Scottish. It's unique location on the north east coast, and proximity to some of Scotland's more rugged and breathtaking scenery, provides you with plenty of escapes from the classroom.

Courses may be selected among various departments. You will earn the following hours of credit.
*Fall term: 12 credits.
*Fall and spring semester: 16 credits.
*Academic year: 30 credits.

Highlights

The University, located on the outskirts of the city, retains the feel of a small village in spite of its 13,000 students. You will benefit from Aberdeen's strengths in the sciences, oil exploration and technology, medicine, environmental planning and the biological sciences. Philosophy, English, Celtic and divinity studies are also popular course choices. For an academically-oriented student who wants a distinctive Scottish experience combined with plenty of outdoor activities such as skiing, windsurfing, climbing and hiking, this is the place.
