About the University of Aberdeen:
The University of Aberdeen, located in Aberdeen, Scotland, is a historic public research university and one of the four ancient universities of Scotland. Founded in 1495, it is the fifth-oldest university in the English-speaking world. The university played a significant role in the Scottish Enlightenment in the 18th century, alongside other prestigious institutions like the universities of St Andrews, Glasgow, and Edinburgh.
The University of Aberdeen consists of three primarily ceremonial colleges: King’s College, Marischal College, and Christ’s College. In 1860, King’s College and Marischal College were merged to form the institution as it exists today. The university is known for its iconic structures, including the King’s College Chapel and Quadrangle.
The university has two main campuses: the King’s College campus in Old Aberdeen, located approximately two miles north of the city center, and the Foresterhill campus, which houses the School of Medical Sciences and the School of Medicine and Dentistry, near the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. The Foresterhill campus is one of Europe’s largest health campuses.
The University of Aberdeen has a strong reputation for research, with over 75% of its research output rated as “world-leading” or “internationally excellent” in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework. It is consistently ranked among the top 200 universities in the world and is recognized for its social impact.
