About

Brunel University London, founded in 1966, is an internationally-recognised university located in Uxbridge, London. Named in honour of the great Victorian engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Brunel is currently celebrating its 50th anniversary.
The university is organised into three colleges – Engineering, Design and Physical Sciences; Business, Arts and Social Sciences; and Health and Life Sciences – as well as three major research institutes – Energy Futures and Environment; Health and Societies; and Materials and Manufacturing.
Due to its campus-based nature, students of Brunel are never more than a ten-minute walk away from facilities such as halls of residence, social and sports facilities, lecture theatres, or the library. In addition, its close proximity to London makes it an ideal place for students who wish to experience the capital's many social and cultural attractions.
Furthermore, Brunel is a proud member of the Association of Commonwealth Universities, the European University Association, and Universities UK. In addition, the university offers access to specialist laboratories such as those for electronic imaging, bioprocessing and experimental techniques, flight, driving and train simulators, and a 3D body scanner.
Many undergraduate students also have the option to take a practical placement or project as part of their courses in the form of a sandwich year. On top of that, Brunel's Department of Design hold an annual design exhibition known as 'Made In Brunel', which is designed to showcase the work of final year students to the wider design industry.
