University of Edinburgh (Edinburgh, The United Kingdom)

https://www.ed.ac.uk/

University of Edinburgh is a university located in Edinburgh, The United Kingdom offering 2 direct enrollment and exchange programs and 10 programs managed by an outside provider. Programs offered include Study Abroad and Internship abroad programs.

The University of Edinburgh is one of the UK’s oldest and most prestigious universities. Over the last four centuries, we have built an enviable reputation for excellence in both research and teaching, attracting some of the world’s leading thinkers to work and study here. The University is located in the heart of Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital city and one of the most beautiful cities in Europe.

Edinburgh offers a wide range of courses and you will be taught alongside students who enrolled on full degree courses in Edinburgh. We will always try to offer you a place on the courses you choose, but space may be limited in Honours level (3rd year) courses in popular subject areas. If you want to take Honours courses you need to show you have prior knowledge of the subject (a minimum of 3 or 4 University courses in the subject, which you passed with good grades). Meeting these requirements does not guarantee entry to a course, but we will try and offer you a suitable alternative if space is not available.

You can apply online. In addition to your completed application we also require a personal statement, an academic reference (from a faculty member who has taught you at your home institution), and an official transcript from your home institution. Through your online account you can upload supporting documents and track the progress of your application. Candidates are expected to have a good academic record with a good ‘B’ average (for applicants from North America this translates into a GPA of 3.0 or above).

We also offer credit-bearing summer courses. In addition to academic study, our summer programmes are constructed to give students the opportunity to get involved and enjoy some of the city’s finest festivals and social activities, including the world famous Fringe Festival here in Edinburgh. The Summer School also provides a social programme, where students can explore the city and the rest of Scotland whilst making new friends and learning about the local culture, history and tradition.

The following STEM courses are also available:
