Don't be so sure, Strathclyde has more links with employers


But Glasgow's department is far better. RGU also has great links with employers doesn't mean their departments are all that.

If you want to talk about Links with Employers QUB has links with 500 employers

They do, but the top 50 or so of those employers (e.g. Microsoft, Kainos, IBM) are worth having on your CV. For example, QUB also place students in the local public sector, which is a doss year for the placement student where they basically work on a telephone help desk (basically the old "have you tried turning it on and off again" gig). So a lot of the placements aren't great in terms of learning,

TBF QUB does have some very good placements, but they are competitive.

Many unis have at least some great industry connections too. For example a student at Greenwich spoke recently of their placement at Oracle.

I wouldn't be 100% sure, but St Andrews have a reputation for being selective. Best to check with the university.

Nottingham is an excellent university. I'm sure it'll open many doors for you. :fluffy:
