Founded in 1895 and a university since 1966, Aston University is a long-established research-led university known for its world-class teaching quality and strong links to industry.
With 18,000 students from over 120 countries our safe and friendly campus sits in the heart of Birmingham – one of the UK’s most diverse and vibrant cities – and our teaching, facilities and commitment to an outstanding student experience are what really sets us apart.
In the heart of Birmingham city, you’ll find Aston University’s single-site campus. As well as all the facilities and resources you could ever need, it’s filled with pockets of greenery and spaces to sit and relax in the open air, including the Chancellor’s lake and its geese.
We provide our students with some of the best learning and research environments in the world. From modern lecture theatres and clinics for students to practice in – such as the Aston Brain Centre and Aston Eye Clinic – to a range of specialist laboratories, including our £3.9million virtual reality facility.
We provide award-winning accommodation on our small, friendly campus in partnership with Unite Students.
Staying here will mean you’ll be a couple of minutes’ walk from all your lecture halls and the library, perfect if you’re someone who likes to leave it until the last second to get out of bed.
Find your new university home with Unite Students and make the most of communal study and social spaces, on-site gyms and 24-hour security.
