The university is set in the vibrant town of Guildford in the heart of the southeast of England and easily accessible to London.

At Surrey, we endeavour to prepare students for the world of work and the vast majority of our students undertake Professional Training placements as a part of their degree. We’re well known for our focus on graduate employability figures from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) reveal that 93 per cent of Surrey’s 2017 graduates were in work (or further education) six months after they graduated.

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.
