Durham combines a collegiate system (with 17 colleges) and three academic faculties in Arts and Humanities, Science, and Social Sciences and Health. It is highly selective and consistently ranked in the UK top 5–10 and in the global top 100, with particular strengths in subjects such as law, business, politics, theology, English, archaeology, geography and the natural sciences. Around 21,000–22,000 students study at Durham, almost 30% from outside the UK. The university offers a distinctive student experience centred on its colleges, historic setting and strong academic reputation.
