Founded in 1963 the University of East Anglia ‘UEA’ is a beautiful campus University, only 90 minutes or so from London located in the medieval city of Norwich - not unlike Oxford without tourists! Comprising eighteen Schools of Study, UEA enjoys an international reputation (the 2001 Nobel Prize winner in Medicine - Sir Paul Nurse is a Ph.D Biology graduate) in diverse areas: film studies, creative writing and the pioneering groupings for which we are famous, such as environmental sciences, development studies and world art studies. Degree courses cover a broad spectrum, including natural sciences, social sciences and the arts.

UEA is part of the Norwich Research Park, Europe’s largest Research Centre in Biology and Plant sciences. We also have an excellent reputation in the arts, particularly through our links with the literary world and our Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts. UEA has an Ivy League rating (top ten in the official British Government academic rankings) in most areas of teaching and research. Of 9,200 full-time students 1,700 are international (from over 100 countries) many with generous tuition-fee scholarships from the UEA International Scholarship Fund.
