THE UNIVERSITY OF SUSSEX
IN BRIGHTON

 

The University of Sussex, which is located on the edge of Brighton. It was the first of the new wave of UK universities founded in the 1960s. Combined award-winning architecture with green open spaces, it is regarded as one of the most beautiful campus locations in Britain. 

 

 

Of the 10,500 students at Sussex, around a quarter are international. Sussex has academic staff from over 50 countries and students from over 120 countries. It also counts three Nobel Prize winners, 14 Fellows of the Royal Society, six Fellows of the British Academy and a winner of the Crafoord Prize among its faculty.

 

 

In order to create a multidisciplinary teaching environment, Sussex emphases on cross-disciplinary activity, so that students would emerge from the university with a range of background or 'contextual' knowledge to complement their specialist 'core' skills in a particular subject area.
