Overall score

An academically strong university set in an inviting but expensive city. However, the University undoubtedly has its flaws.

Study experience

A fairly strong History of Art programme, but slightly over-taught. Certain aspects of the programme would benefit from better organisation. However, the Department consists of well-versed, knowlegeable lecturers.

Facilities

A fairly good main library. Stocked with a large collection of resources. However, it lags a bit technologically and lacks sufficient study space for such a large student body. Individual school libraries could use updating and an increased amount of resources.

Postgraduate life

Didn't join any clubs or society. As a postgraduate, I lacked the time. However, the University appears to offer a wide variety of societies and clubs, and allows students to form their own if one does not already exist for a particular interest.

Job prospects

The University of Edinburgh holds a solid reputation and provides a solid background for future employment and continued study. Very few networking opportunities though.
