"Students participating in the New Paltz - Middlesex program have the advantage of experiencing first-hand and at relatively low cost the educational system of a British university. New Paltz has established a comprehensive, well-thought-through oreintation process to inform students about the details of the program. Both institutions seem wholly committed to making the program work."

Study Abroad in Dundee, Scotland
Dundee University

Program Location

Like the University, the city of Dundee is a comfortable size. With a population of around 160,000. Dundee is large enough to support the range of cultural, sporting and recreational activities expected of a major city but small enough not to be overwhelming or impersonal for those coming to study at Dundee. The city lies on the estuary of the River Tay, on the eastern coast of Scotland. Travel north and you reach the highlands; south and you enter the ancient kingdom of Fife and on to St. Andrews and Edinburgh. Students enjoy easy access to the city's modern facilities, yet are only a short distance from the peace and tranquillity of the unspoiled countryside which surrounds it. Dundee is located 490 miles form London and just 65 miles from Edinburgh.

University of Dundee

The program offers students the opportunity to spend a semester immersing themselves in the academic, historical, political and cultural life of Scotland. The University of Dundee has a firmly established reputation for teaching quality and high-level research. Dundee is a campus university where teaching facilities, social facilities and much of the student accommodation are all on the same compact site. Dundee University has approximately 11,000 students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, drawn from the UK, Europe and other countries.
