Why Sussex?

Most Taiwanese students choose Sussex because of the quality of our teaching and research. Brighton is also an attractive location because it's lively, cosmopolitan and close to London. 

The majority of our Taiwanese students are studying for taught postgraduate (Masters) or research (Doctorate) degrees and popular schools include:

School of Business, Management and Economics
School of Engineering and Design
School of English
School of Media, Film and Music
Doctoral School 

Each year, we also welcome visiting students from National Taiwan University under our institution-wide exchange programme.
