- The main buildings - Old College, Kydd Building, Student Centre and Hannah Maclure Centre - are in the Bell Street complex, grouped around the University's award-winning library. There's always a busy atmosphere around the Abertay campus, as students come and go to lectures, meet with staff, study for exams, and attend tutorials and seminars.
Sports facilities
Sport and physical activity at Abertay University is as much a part of university life as attending lectures and tutorials. Although a small university, Abertay offers a wide range of clubs from the traditional sports such as rugby and football to the more diverse sports such as triathlon and dance.
Student Reviews
My Time at Abertay
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
I feel that the university provides a lot of supporting learning resources, and the tutors are extremely encouraging to the students. I have been able to always communicate with them and discuss any help. Each module's tutor teaches the module in their own way, some take it step by step while others want us to work through the tasks and programmes ourselves with some...
Great!
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
I really enjoyed being part of the Abertay university. Because it is a small university you feel a sense of belonging and the psychology course was great.
Great lecturers!
