We are proud to announce we’ve risen three places in the Guardian’s 2023 annual league table of UK universities - coming in 22nd on the list.

The Guardian University Guide ranks universities according to several factors, including teaching excellence, student satisfaction and career prospects. 

It marks the fifth consecutive year of improvement for Aston University, up 29 places since 2018 and now places us number two in the West Midlands region. 

“Our year-on-year improvements in the Guardian University Guide reflects the high-quality teaching and learning being conducted across our three colleges.

Our overall ranking for career prospects highlights how Aston University is committed to developing graduates who excel in the workplace - something prospective students and employers value highly.

These rankings are a key determining factor for prospective students when choosing where they go to study, and they also demonstrate continued improvement in our educational endeavour.”
