Caring and supportive culture
With our smaller class sizes, UHI takes a personalised approach to helping students find their way, building their skills and confidence to prepare them for their chosen path. With this tailored support, it is not surprising that UHI ranks highly for student satisfaction in the National Student Survey and Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey.
Employability and Careers
UHI’s Handshake platform and app is designed to help secure dream jobs – it connects our graduates directly with top employers, who can easily find and reach out to graduates on the platform too. Arrange appointments for advice and coaching, optimise your CV (also known as a resume), carry out mock interviews, book national and international careers events, and take part in an array of career management activities.
Research Strengths
The university has a strong reputation in a range of distinctive research areas, many of which are inspired by the natural environment, culture and industries of the Highlands and Islands, influencing change both locally and globally. This has been recognised in UHI's success in the REF 2021.
