Visit us

One of the best ways to explore the campus and city is to visit. Dundee’s campus is in the popular west-end of the city, and they are always happy to welcome you. As the campus is compact and close-knit, you’ll have plenty of chances to meet staff and students and take a look around. Open days for students looking to apply to start in Fall 2024 are on Saturday 23 September 2023 and Saturday 28 October 2023. We are also happy to arrange an individual visit to campus at other times. Please email visitus@dundee.ac.uk.

The city is a great size; you don't need to get public transport to go anywhere unlike most other cities. You can walk or cycle anywhere, and it's close enough to nature that you can get out if you want to. There's a great city life with pubs and club and everything.
