Why Choose Nottingham Trent University - Ed Tech?
1. Ranked #1 in the UK
Uni Compare 2025 rated NTU the best university in the UK for graduate employability. Every degree includes embedded placements, live employer projects or work experience built into the curriculum. Business students complete year-long paid placements. Computing students have gone to IBM. This is not an optional add-on.
2. Gold TEF and University of the Year
The UK government's 2023 Teaching Excellence Framework gave NTU Gold — the highest grade - for both teaching quality and student experience. Separately, five organisations have each named NTU University of the Year: THE, the Guardian, the Times, the Sunday Times and WhatUni. One award could be a good year. Five is a pattern.
3. Eight subject areas in the UK top 25
Forensic Science is #1 in the UK with a perfect 100/100 Guardian score. Animal Science is top 5. Interior Design and Creative Writing are top 10. Every Nottingham Business School undergraduate course sits in the top 20 of its subject table. Strong across engineering, arts, science and business - not just one department.
4. A business degree recognised
AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS are the three accreditations that make a business degree globally credible. Only 1% of business schools worldwide hold all three. NTU's does. A Nottingham Business School degree is not just a UK qualification - it carries weight in international job markets.
5. Scholarships that can save up to £15,350
The Excellence Scholarship cuts Year 1 tuition by 50% and takes £3,000 off every following year - up to £15,350 saved across a degree. NTU also runs country-specific awards for students from Sri Lanka, Taiwan, the US, India, Ghana, Uganda and more. Some go up to 100% tuition waiver.
