The University of Lincoln has risen to 17th in The Guardian University Guide 2020, published today (7th May 2019).

This latest success follows a series of great achievements over the last year including a multi-million pound grant to advance research into a ‘Holy Grail’ medical imaging system for cancer patients, the establishment of Lincolnshire’s first medical school in partnership with the University of Nottingham, and a top ten ranking in the National Student Survey.

The University was rated TEF Gold – the highest standard possible – in a national independent assessment of teaching quality in higher education. It also has established fantastic links with organisations including Siemens, Thomson Reuters Foundation and The Guardian which create excellent opportunities for our students.

The Guardian University Guide 2020 was published today for undergraduates choosing courses for 2020 entry. The guide, produced by Intelligent Metrix, ranks universities according to spending per student; student/staff ratio; graduate career prospects; entry requirements; a value-added score; student continuation rates; and student satisfaction, based on results from the annual National Student Survey.

The institution is known for a pioneering approach to working with employers, which has been recognised with a Lord Stafford Award and Times Higher Education Award. In the National Student Survey 2017, students rated Lincoln in the top 20 in the UK for academic support, learning resources and learning community with several of our courses placed number one overall for their subject areas. Among Lincoln’s most recent graduates, 95 per cent were in work or further study six months after finishing their course, with more than three quarters in graduate level roles.
