Studying at Heriot-Watt University has been a mixed experience. The university has a good campus environment with a diverse international student community, and there are opportunities to develop academically and prepare for future careers. However, there are areas that could be improved, particularly the reliability of the Wi-Fi and the overall student experience. Getting support when needed is important, and improving communication and access to academic resources would make a difference. Overall, the university offers a good opportunity to study in an international environment, but there is still room for improvement. read more

As an international student, my experience in Heriot-watt has been exceptionally good so far. Of course it came with its struggles such as going through my visa process and communicating with the university from overseas which was a bit of an issue due to the response time of the university. However, it’s one of the best decisions I have ever made. read more

Studying at Heriot-Watt University has been very different from my experience at school in China. The beautiful campus, surrounded by greenery and little animals, makes everyday life feel peaceful and enjoyable. I especially love the library, where I can admire the green lawns outside the windows and relax when I feel tired from studying. Oriam also makes it easier to enjoy sports, and there are even places to practise the piano for free! I really appreciate the friendly, student-centred teaching style and the variety of activities available outside the classroom. For me, Heriot-Watt is not just a place to study, but also a place to enjoy life and discover new interests. read more

Love it here so far. The people I’ve met have been really friendly and the lecturers are approachable and respond the emails in a timely manner! Heriot-Watt has a beautiful campus and since it isn’t too far from the city centre there are lots of buses running throughout the day. The traditional accommodations are also quite nice. The room is big enough for uni essentials and a bit of decoration read more

Heriot-Watt University
Heriot-Watt is a practice-focused university well-known for engineering, computer science, AI and robotics. Its Edinburgh campus is a spacious, green parkland site, quiet and ideal for studying. It takes roughly 20–30 minutes by bus to reach Edinburgh city centre. On-campus accommodation is mostly self-catered single en-suite rooms with all bills included. Halls are a short walk from teaching buildings, library and sports facilities, and guaranteed for eligible new students, though availability is limited. Teaching is practical and project-heavy, with strong industry links. You will work on plenty of coursework, group projects and lab tasks. Library and specialist facilities including the GRID and National Robotarium are great for technical degrees. The student community is diverse and international. The vibe is calm rather than party-focused. It’s a solid choice if you prefer a quiet campus and prioritise hands-on technical training, but less ideal if you want to live right in the cit read more
