The university is organized around six specialist schools that offer studies in engineering, IT, healthcare, economics and social sciences.

Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland and is located in the southeastern part of the country. The city is known for being one of the UK’s most beautiful, with its many parks and neoclassical architecture. Here you will also find countless historical sites including the famous Edinburgh Castle, an old fortress in the city centre. Embrace this exciting city through its many festivals, including the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, which is the world's largest art festival. Celebrate the New Year by taking part in a Scottish Hogmanay which is celebrated in Edinburgh by, among other things, burning a copy of a Viking longship.
