UEA is situated in 200 hectares of beautiful parkland and our students seem to find the community-driven ethos of our campus particularly appealing. Virtually no part of the campus is more than a few minutes’ walk from anywhere else, including all academic departments, lecture theatres, library and student support facilities, plus the Student Union, Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts and the Sportsparkand other research centres at the Norwich Research Park.
Our teaching is designed to ensure an in-depth knowledge of your subject, as well as developing the analytical, presentation, teamwork and communication skills sought by employers. A mixture of lectures, seminars, laboratory or practical classes and work placements are on offer dependent on your chosen subject. A period of time living and studying abroad forms an integral part of many of our courses.
