At Abertay University, we believe in following one’s own path and doing things differently, if it means we can serve our students better.

Why not let us help you to follow your own path?

We’re a small, successful specialist university offering professionally relevant degrees in a supportive and friendly environment. Our modern, city-centre campus is located in Dundee, Scotland’s sunniest city.

Here are just three of many reasons why our courses will help you to follow your own path.

Professionally relevant

Abertay Graduate Timea Tabori

Our courses are designed specifically with your career in mind. We work with industry professionals to design our curriculum, offer built-in work placement opportunities, business game challenges and other valuable experiences.

Computer Games graduate Timea Tabori works as a Games Engine Programmer for Rockstar North – the company behind Grand Theft Auto and other notable computer games.

‘My time at Abertay has definitely had a great impact on my career. I knew from a young age that I wanted to make games and I feel like I had a fantastic opportunity to take control of my own education, learn the necessary skills and satisfy my curiosity at Abertay. I had a number of experiences as a student that directly helped me to build my abilities and make the connections I needed to join the industry.’

Linked with industry

Abertay Graduate Patrick Murray

We pride ourselves on our long list of accreditations from professional bodies such as Creative Skillset, the Chartered Institution of Management Accountants, the British Psychological Society and many others.

Biomedical Science graduate Patrick Murray works as a Laboratory Manager for Source Bioscience – an international bioscience company.

‘If you’re studying Biomedical Sciences like I did, the course is accredited. You won’t be able to find work in the NHS without this accreditation. This is important as the NHS provides very well paid and interesting work all over the country.’

Sought after by employers

Abertay Graduate Daniel Mosca

Our graduates work for Apple, Google, BBC, Microsoft, Pixar, Rockstar Games, IBM, Coca Cola, Adidas, Nestle, PayPal, Nissan, PwC, Sky, NCR, NHS, GSK, BP, Shell, Chevron, TOTAL, Sony and many others. They did it and so can you!

Ethical Hacking graduate Daniel Mosca secured a job with Lockheed Martin, the international defence and security company, before he had even finished his Ethical Hacking degree at Abertay.

‘I thoroughly enjoyed the course and would definitely recommend it to anyone. Partly for the diversity of the people that were on it, but also for the speciality of the course itself – you don’t get many courses with the words ethical or hacking in them!’
