We have a large number of staff from mainland Europe at Kent which means that we are able to gain a European perspective from our teachers and colleagues in all that we do.
Kent’s cosmopolitan atmosphere is generated by a large number of international students, over 40% of them from Europe. In the academic year 2009-2010, there were over 1,400 non-UK European students from 30 different European countries. European students make up roughly 10% of new students, about 17% of postgraduate students.
As we have such a large number of students from Europe, we have built up expertise on European education systems which ensures that European applications are assessed accurately and fairly.
There is a large number of European-focused clubs and societies eg. Club Italia, the Erasmus Society, the German Society, the Hellenic Society and the Hispanic Society. As the UK’s European University, we also celebrate the EU’s official Europe day every year too!
There is a large number of European focused student clubs and societies at Kent's Canterbury campus.
Kent's Medway campus is home to a number of European focused clubs and societies.
