Founded in 1901, the University of Sunderland is proud to provide truly life-changing education to students locally, nationally and globally.
The quality of the research at the University of Sunderland has been recognised in the latest Research Excellence Framework, which rated it as ‘world-leading’ in Business. What’s more, unlike many universities, all of our researchers also teach at the University, meaning that our research excellence is fed directly back into our teaching.
The University of Sunderland was rated TEF Silver for teaching, the second-highest rating that can be awarded and a 5-star rating for teaching by QS.
Many of our courses are recognised by industry and our close relationships with leading industry partners mean that our academic content is developed with a clear focus on the real world of work. This is reflected in the fact that 95.3% of our postgraduate students are in employment or further study within 6 months of graduating.
The Global Student Satisfaction Awards empower students across the globe to determine the best universities of 2021. Universities with a score above 4.0 (out of 5) in any of the 8 award categories, receive Badges of Excellence. Congratulations!
