Degrees in the United Kingdom

The United Kingdom has never had a shortage of memorable figures, whether it be authors (Shakespeare, Charles Dicken, Aldous Huxley), political figures (Winston Churchill, Albus Dumbledore, and several centuries of kings and queens), musicians (Henry Purcell, The Beatles), or inventors (Thomas Paine, James Watt). The UK has led the world in exploration, technological innovation, and literary milestones, and its rate of influential growth isn’t slowing down soon. Throw rugged cliffs, mythical creatures, pioneer music festivals, first-rate education, and hearty pub food into the mix, and the only question you’re left with is: why not get a degree in the UK?

A Guide to Degrees abroad in the United Kingdom

Locations

Sprinkle a generous handful of well-established cities amidst some of the most impressive natural beauty you can find, and you have the stimulating variety that encompasses the United Kingdom.

Perched near the border of Scotland and England, both Edinburgh and Glasgow offer a passageway to the metropolitan cities of the south and to the rugged wilderness of the north. While Glasgow is sometimes painted in a somber glow, it is a down-to-earth place full of street art, ethnic neighborhoods, and a tidy quietness not typically associated with capital cities. Its livelier and younger counterpart, Edinburgh (a world heritage site) is the nation’s forerunner of theatre and design. 

London offers excellent degree opportunities for almost any study track, where there is a hustle of innovation that is hard to ignore (no surprise it's the top location for international students worldwide!).

Other popular cities for earning a degree in the UK include Birmingham, Manchester, Aberdeen, and Belfast, each providing the same quality of education, just off the beaten path (perfect for the more rogue scholar).

Above all, be sure to explore all your location options for degrees in the UK and then determine which one sounds like the best fit.

The best decision for a college student

April 10, 2025by: Emma Schardt - GermanyProgram: Study Abroad at UAB: Business Management Across Europe

I had an amazing time, truly a time in my life I will always cherish. I was able to call a new place home, meet so many new people who I made lifelong friendships with and created memories I will forever remember. I also grew as a person by navigating a new environment completely on my own, finding myself away from environments I am used to and explored new places that taught me so much.
