Students in a bar in Dundee

Like the University, Dundee is international and multicultural. It is home to residents from many countries and ethnic groups.

“The best moments so far have been meeting friendly people. I think Dundee has the most friendly people I have met. People are so welcoming, so eager to help, and to give direction. Of course, it's daunting moving from your home country to a country that you've never been to, but I feel at home here.”

Grace Kayola from Zambia, MPH Public Health
