We are one of three academic Colleges at the University of Edinburgh. With more than 2,700 staff and over 8,000 students, we are also one of the largest science and engineering groupings in the UK.
We deliver impact for society.
As part of a truly global university, rooted in Scotland’s capital city, we make a significant, sustainable and socially responsible contribution to the world.
College mission
We discover, develop and share knowledge.
As a centre of academic excellence we aim to:
The College of Science and Engineering consists of seven academic schools and one centre of excellence.
As a major, comprehensive university we conduct research of the highest standard across a broad spectrum of disciplines.
Our discipline-specific research is impressive but we also focus on challenging our researchers to explore the space between traditional disciplines, creating transformational discoveries that enrich society.
The Research Excellence Framework (REF) is the system for assessing the quality of research in UK higher education institutions.
In the Research Excellence Framework assessment in 2014, as a University, we were fourth in the UK by research power and in the top five in most individual subjects.
Of our seven submissions from College of Science & Engineering schools, 3 were ranked top in the UK and all 7 were in the top 5 in their discipline in the Times Higher Power rankings, and over 95% of our staff were submitted.
