The University of Lincoln has risen more places than any other university in this year’s Good University Guide published by The Times.

The University of Lincoln

Situated about 130 miles north of London refers to Lincoln as having effected “the most dramatic transformation of any university in recent times”, with well over £180 million having been spent on building a stunning modern campus in the heart of a beautiful and ancient small city.





Lincoln is one of the most historic cathedral cities in Europe.

The University lies in the heart of the city and as such students have the benefit of easy access to the historic centre with its many amenities. There are cinema’s, sports facilities, arts centres and restaurants and cafes to suit a variety of taste and budgets

Summer School 2011




The summer school 2011 included field trips to sustainable architectural projects, guest speakers, straw-bale house building, seminars, a trip to London and time to relax and enjoy the Lincoln on foot or bike.

“I like the course a lot, it has been a lot of fun and I did gain lots of experience from everyone here. They have been very helpful and it has been very different from what we take in Egypt. Hope we can come again. Thank you.”
