Which is the best art university in the UK?

Can anybody recommend a good UK university for doing a degree in eng.lit, history or art?

  • Im looking at potential universities and colleges at the moment and i'm wondering if anyone can recommend a good one in the UK (preferably england) for studying english lit, history, history of art or fine art?? I'm looking for a good quality university with a good reputation but also a good cultural scene - galleries, exhibitions and live bands, also a good nightlife. Any suggestions? I'm particularly interested in going to somewhere around London or one of the other bigger cities.

  • Answer:

    I would recommend London. It is the capital city of England, and it is well known all over the world. I went to Goldsmiths College, University of London. It has a great atmosphere and whole range of arts subjects to choose from. The actual area of the uni is not the most salubrious - but has the advantage of cheaper accommodation. It is about 15 minutes or less by train to London Bridge and Charing Cross. Central London) The are other universities which are in the city and might suit you better if money is not a problem and you like to be close to all the galleries and nightlife. Manchester University also has a good name for English Lit. Oxford and Cambridge are the cream. All university cities are good for cultural and night life - but London gets my vote. Good luck!

Glasgow School of Art. Its one of the best Uni's in the country (part of Glasgow Uni) and Glasgow is one of the biggest, best cities in UK. The nightlife is excellent and there are lots of art galleries, museums, pubs and clubs. Loads of live bands get discovered in Glasgow (oasis being one of many). There are loads of places live bands play.

Lancaster university is really good for what you want to do. You can also check out Royal Holloway and University of Durham. Hope this helps:) University of Ediburgh would be a good one too as the surroundings are lovely. UCL will also be perfect for what you are interested in.

The University of East Anglia is an internationally recognised centre for English (Malcolm Bradbury taught there, as did Harold Pinter and Andrew Motion). It also has the Sainsbury's centre (not a supermarket) one of the largest private art collections in the UK. If, however, you aren't sure whether to do English OR art, you'll find it hard to get in. Both subjects are oversubscribed and you'll be competing against people who are 100% focussed on one course and have honed their 6th form lives to getting there!
