Anglia Ruskin University
Anglia Ruskin University, based in the beautiful east of England, has a history dating back to 1858 when the Cambridge campus was opened as a School of Art. The University now has five academic faculties offering a range of high-quality undergraduate and postgraduate courses in the beautiful academic city of Cambridge, with a second campus in the historic town of Chelmsford. Both campuses are in the city centre, close to shopping and leisure facilities, and both Cambridge and Chelmsford are within an hour of London and its international transport links.
Courses
 Anglia Ruskin’s courses are offered across five faculties: Ashcroft International Business School; Faculty of Science and Technology; Faculty of Arts, Law and Social Sciences; Faculty of Education; Faculty of Health and Social Care. As well as full three-year undergraduate and one year postgraduate degree courses, there are also one-year or one-semester study abroad programmes available.
Every one of our courses aims to develop skills which are transferable to future careers, as well as academic knowledge and advancement. The University is proud of the quality of the teaching it offers which is reflected in its success in the Guardian University Guide league table. In 2006 we were ranked in the top 20 in the UK for a number of subjects, including English, art and design, and architecture.

Anglia Ruskin is currently reviewing the range of scholarships on offer, to try and make the awards more accessible than ever to our international students. Further details can be found on our website, or will be sent to you when you apply
