大学概况University Profile

Nottingham’s graduates are the most sought after in Britain, according to a survey of The Times Top 100 graduate employers. The university has always done well in annual High Fliers’ Graduate Market survey – it was second in 2013 - but this is the first year in which it has come out on top.

The university does not take the workplace success of its graduates for granted and through the Nottingham Advantage Award it offers extra-curricular modules, building skills and experience in areas such as finance and career planning, as well as providing scores of internships for graduates.

Those graduates enjoy lifetime access to the careers service, which has teams in each faculty. The university also featured in the top 50 of a global employability university survey published in 2013 based on the views of 2,700 recruiters spread across 20 countries.

Nottingham is popular, too, with degree applicants: only the two large Manchester universities drew more applications in 2013. It is seen as a prime alternative to Oxbridge, and attracts more than seven applicants for each of the 7,000 undergraduate places it fills each year.

A member of the Russell Group, Nottingham is in the top 75 in the QS World University Rankings. It has campuses in China and Malaysia, as well as its home city, making it the nearest Britain has to a truly global university. Nottingham, in fact, now has two bases in China, the only UK university to do so.

Nottingham has longstanding links with the Far East, which provides the majority of its 8,000 overseas students in the UK. The branch campuses outside Kuala Lumpur, in Malaysia, and at Ningbo, in China, now host another 8,000 students. The purpose-built campuses have echoes of Nottingham’s distinctive clock tower.

Students at all three sites have the opportunity to move between the countries. The latest venture has created a second base in China, in Shanghai, through a collaboration with the East China University of Science and Technology, where the Shanghai Nottingham Advanced Academy will be based. It will deliver joint courses that include periods of study in Nottingham, with teaching and research at undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral levels.

The university has shown its strength in research with two Nobel prizes since the millennium for work carried out at Nottingham. Professor Sir Peter Mansfield, who won the medicine prize for research leading to the development of the MRI scanner, has spent almost his entire academic career there.

The university further underlined its status by winning a grant from Glaxo Smith Kline to establish a £20m Carbon Neutral Laboratory for Sustainable Chemistry, although building work must now start again following a catastrophic fire this month. Almost 60% of a big submission to the last Research Assessment Exercise was judged to be world-leading or internationally excellent.

The original University Park campus has won 11 consecutive Green Flag awards for its 330 acres of parkland and was named as the most sustainable campus in the world by the UI Greenmetric in 2013. A £50m building programme includes the extension and refurbishment of the specialist library for engineering and science, which will double in size.

A mile away is the 30-acre Jubilee campus, which was also awarded a Green Flag this year. It houses the schools of management and finance, computer science and education, as well as 750 residential places. New sports facilities, research laboratories, teaching space and student accommodation have all been added in recent years.

The newly-reorganised Medical School is also close to University Park, with a £4.5m outpost for nursing at Derby Hospital.

The biosciences and the veterinary school are at Sutton Bonington, 12 miles south of the city in a rural setting. The latest development there is a new £9m Amenities Building, which will include a 500-seat dining hall, student common rooms and staff lounge, as well as a graduate centre, faith room and Student Guild Service. 

The university has succeeded in broadening its UK intake, but still has more independent school students and fewer from working-class homes than the national average for the subjects it offers. Summer schools and master classes provide support for teenagers from backgrounds without a history of progressing to selective universities and the university has joined the Sutton Trust’s Pathways to Law access programme.

Once in, students tend to stay the course – the dropout rate of less than 5% is among the best in the country.

The two main campuses in Nottingham are within three miles of the city centre, which has a good selection of student-friendly clubs and Nottingham is now considerably safer than was once the case. The city has overcome a troubled period, now more than a decade ago, when gun crime soared to rates among the highest in Britain.

However, halls of residence and the students’ union tend to be the centre of social life for students, especially in the first year. New bars, café facilities and a nightclub were included in a £1m makeover of student facilities.

Sports provision is excellent. Almost £5m is being spent on two new sports pavilions and the university’s playing fields adjoin the main campus.

学生观点Student view

Harry Copson, students’ union president

First impressions

An enormous campus with grand halls of residence and people from all over the country.

Worst feature

We’re not allowed to swim in our lake.

Making a difference

Through the sports department I became a qualified FA referee in my second year.

Deal clincher

The city offers you pretty much anything you want and students make the most of it.
