What makes us different

Unusually for a London university, Brunel is a single-site university with everything students need on one campus. Brunel guarantees accommodation on campus for all new students who meet their course conditions and apply for a room by 31 August 2025.  The campus is about 20 minutes’ walk from Uxbridge tube station, with central London 40 minutes away. Nearby West Drayton station on the Elizabeth line is a short bus ride away and students can reach Heathrow airport in 20 minutes by car.

Brunel has a long and distinguished history in sport, offering some of the best university sports facilities in the UK. These facilities are used by some of the world’s top athletes, including former 100m World Champion Yohan Blake and the ‘Linford Christie Academy’ sprinters.  

Graduate employability is very important to Brunel. The University was one of the first universities in the UK to offer sandwich degrees and currently, over 95%  of its courses offer a placement.

    Computer Science
    Hey there! I'm a third-year computer science student from Tanzania. When I'm not buried in code, you can find me on the football field, shooting hoops on the basketball court, or battling it out in online battle royale games—I'm a bit of a gaming enthusiast. I've also got a thing for cars, their mechanics and design fascinate me. What really excites me, though, is the idea of merging my interests with artificial intelligence. The thought of blending manual processes with AI tech gets me fired up. So, fellow future students, remember that your passions can lead you to exciting places, and I can't wait to explore this journey with you!

    Medicine
    I am from Taiwan, and I am now a 3rd-year MBBS student at Brunel Medical School. My special interests in medicine include Immunology and Neurology. I chose to study Medicine because I love science and art, and Medicine is the perfect combination of both. I particularly love the Brunel MBBS Team-Based Learning model (TBL) as it guides my learning journey as a medical student very well. The early placement opportunity since Year 1 has been the most rewarding learning experience for me.
