Durham University is distinctive – a Collegiate University with ancient traditions and modern values. We seek to achieve the highest distinction in research and scholarship which make a real difference to societies world-wide. We are equally committed to excellence in all aspects of learning, education and the transmission of knowledge.

But Durham University is much more than that. The World Heritage Site at the heart of the City of Durham has been a leading centre of scholarship for over 1000 years, while our cosmopolitan Queen’s Campus in Stockton is at the leading edge of Teesside’s transition from an industrial to a knowledge economy.

 

Education and Student Experience

Durham University offers its students a challenging and rewarding education through its ethos of research-led teaching combined with opportunities for personal development. We are committed to education, instilling in our students the ability to learn and think, together with an emphasis on leadership, respect for others and social and environmental responsibility. We are preparing our graduates for the rest of their life. Study with us and you’ll have access to teaching by world experts, award-winning study facilities, extensive collections of books and learning resources, together with an unrivalled college system where you have the space and support to be who you want to be and to get involved in a whole range of activities, clubs and societies.

As a community to call home for three or four years, Durham University takes some beating. When you join us, you’ll either be based in Durham City or at Queen’s Campus, Stockton depending on where your study programme is based. Whichever location you are in, you’ll enjoy a fantastic student lifestyle in lively surroundings with a superb choice of events and entertainment.
