Information about the University of Liverpool for Prospective Students

institution

Original and inclusive for 140 years, we’re a truly inspirational place to learn and research. We’re also a place where students develop a rich world view, as well as the skills and confidence to thrive in today’s connected yet complex world.

We are working to deliver the key aims of our Sustainability Strategy: to achieve net zero carbon by 2035, to reduce our waste by 50% by 2025 and for every student to undertake a Sustainability-related module, extra-curricular activity, or learning as part of their programme.

Although our main campus is in the heart of Liverpool, we also have a partner university in Suzhou, China – Xi'an Jiaotong Liverpool University (XJTLU). Many of our students start their studies in Liverpool and have the opportunity to spend time studying in China. Wherever you learn with us, you’ll find the same distinctive and welcoming culture. Over 7,000 talented staff help create the inspiring learning environment our students thrive in.

We have a longstanding reputation as one of Europe’s leading providers of wholly online postgraduate degrees. Our suite of postgraduate programmes gives students the opportunity to study in a flexible, international and collaborative learning environment aimed at helping global working professionals to achieve their career goals. Meet some of our inspirational postgraduate researchers and hear about their research journeys at Liverpool.

We hold a Gold rating in the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) and are ranked 19th in the 2025 Complete University Guide.  We were also voted as the number one institution for course content and placed 18th overall in StudentCrowd’s annual survey.
