Leeds — a great place to study in Britain
THE University of Leeds is famous for the quality of its teaching and research. One of the largest universities in Britain, Leeds is popular among students for undergraduate courses.
An emphasis on innovative research and investment in highquality facilities and first-rate infrastructure mean that no fewer than 35 departments are rated internationally or nationally “excellent”.
In the current academic year, 32,241 students are attached to 700 different first-degree programmes and 474 postgraduate degree programmes. A further 32,062 men and women are enrolled in short courses.
The university has also developed distinctive areas of specialist expertise in rarer subjects such as Colour Chemistry and Fire Science.
Leeds is now among the top 10 universities for research in Britain and is internationally acknowledged as a centre of excellence in a wide range of academic and professional disciplines.
Its broad research and skills base and superb facilities attract interest from major multinationals and small local businesses alike. Many of its research initiatives cross traditional subject boundaries and Leeds currently promotes projects through 58 inter-disciplinary centres and seven research schools.
As a result, the university attracts more industrial funding than any other in Britain. It also invests its own resources in helping organisations turn university research into world- class products and services.
