History
Founded in 1881, as a university college of St Andrews, with the objective to provide equal opportunity education, regardless of sex or religion. We were the first institution in the UK to educate men and women side by side. We received our Royal Charter in 1967, becoming the University of Dundee.
At the University of Dundee, you will get more than just a highly valued and recognised education, you will discover a multicultural study destination like no other.
