Dundee is a major Scottish city, so is relatively easy to navigate and get around.
Dundee Airport is close to the city centre along the banks of the river and links the city to cities across the UK. However, it doesn’t fly many international routes.
Dundee has good rail links, with Invergowrie, Balmossie and Monifieth stations all serving the city and surrounding area. The city has Intercity links as well as local and rural lines.
Road access is good, with the M90 and A90, A92, A930, A85 and A929 all running relatively close to the city. The city centre itself is actually easy to navigate by car, which is a bonus.
Our accommodation for Dundee students is all in the city centre, so getting around will be a breeze!
