The latest edition of the Complete University Guide places Dundee as the top destination for Dentistry once again, and second in the country for Forensic Science. Other subjects in the national top ten include Medicine and Pharmacology & Pharmacy.

Meanwhile, the University also ranked 19th in the UK and second in Scotland for graduate employability – a climb of 16 places.

These successes have contributed to a significant rise for the University in the Complete University Guide 2026, with Dundee now placed at 39 in the UK – a rise of 12 places on last year’s table.

Professor Blair Grubb, Vice-Principal (Education) at the University, said, “This new ranking is extremely positive news for everyone associated with the University of Dundee.

“Through what has been an uncertain time, the hard work and dedication of University colleagues has never wavered and this success is a testament to everyone’s collective efforts.

“Dundee has always been synonymous with producing high-quality graduates who help to transform lives both locally and globally. This ranking is recognition of that work across a range of disciplines and motivates us all even further in building on these strengths.”
