University of Dundee Speciality : Earth & Marine Sciences
programme: Applied Geology

It’s a mixed bag worth talking about. The location in Dundee is unbeatable, right in the city, with internships and culture at your fingertips. I studied communications, and the program was hands-on, with profs who’d actually worked in the industry. The student body is diverse, which made for some great discussions. On the flip side, the campus isn’t really a “campus” it’s more like a string of buildings, so it lacks that cozy, traditional feel. Also, the winters are harsh, and tuition isn’t cheap. If you’re career-focused and love urban life, though, University of Dundee is a strong pick.
