We’re on the side of people with guts – Rebels with a cause. We’re about people who love to learn how, but want to challenge why. But why do we have to stop here? Why can’t we take it further, to the bit where it really gets interesting? We’re about the people who huddle outside a class long after it’s finished because there’s much more to be said, more arguments to be had. We’re about people who are bold enough to challenge inequality and the status quo. People who don’t expect the world to change simply because they posted on social media or nodded when someone else spoke. At Essex you’re not just a student, you’re a member, someone with genuine licence to shape what goes on around you. To us it doesn’t matter where you’ve come from. We’re interested in how you want to grow and what you want to change. We’re after people who will help us push the frontiers of knowledge. Challenging convention is in our DNA. The University of Essex is where curiosity prevails, and where exploring new ways of thinking and pushing boundaries, isn’t just encouraged, it’s expected. Essex is a truly international institution with along history of welcoming students from around the world. International students are not just students, they are members. The University of Essex is committed to two things: excellence in teaching and excellence in research. They put student success at the heart of their mission – supporting every student from every background to achieve outstanding outcomes – preparing their students to thrive in their future lives.
