University of Surrey

University of Surrey is a global community of ideas and people, dedicated to life-changing education and research. With a beautiful and vibrant campus, we provide exceptional teaching and practical learning to inspire and equip our students for personal and professional success. Set in the bustling town of Guildford in the heart of the southeast of England, the University is easily accessible by road and rail with great connections to London. Just a 10-minute stroll from campus, Guildford town centre is alive with bars, restaurants and cafes.

There are three faculties within the University: Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. The University is spread across three Guildford-based sites: Stag Hill, Hazel Farm and Manor Park – which boasts a host of student accommodation and the University’s £36 million Surrey Sports Park.

Surrey was recognised as an ‘outstanding’ institution when it received a prestigious Gold award in the first ever Teaching Excellence Framework, which is testament to our passion for inspiring our students and preparing them for a bright future. The University produces highly employable graduates, with its courses designed to give you the necessary skills and experience to excel in the working world. We prepare students for the world of work and the vast majority of our students take up Professional Training placements as a part of their degree.

The University of Surrey’s Accommodation Office will help you find the right place to live, at an affordable rent, throughout your time at the University of Surrey. Within the University’s own accommodation, we have more than 5,000 rooms of various types to suit all budgets. All our courts, as we call the halls of residence at Surrey, are self-catering with shared kitchen facilities, except for the studio flats (band F) at Manor Park.

Surrey is proud to be one of the most culturally diverse universities in the country. Whether you’re from the UK, the EU or further afield, you’ll live, work and study with people from different backgrounds to your own.
