Brunel University - An international school that accepts students directly with IB diplomas. Brunel University is well known in the United Kingdom for Design & Engineering and is named after the UK’s greatest engineer, Isambard Kingdom Brunel.  Students holding an IB Diploma can enter Brunel University directly as part of a facilitated admission through Popabroad or UCAS. What this means is that a student doesn't have to take any additional course work to be excepted. The student's overall points awarded in the IB diploma will be the qualifying factors for admission. Admission to Brunel is competitive and students will be evaluated on the overall scores and extra curricular activities.

This direct path gives the student a unique competitive advantage if they want to study abroad. Brunel also provides its students with real world organization work experience as part of their core studies. The organizations that sponsor students are well know throughout the world such as brands like BMW and HSBC Bank. Combining work experience with abroad studies will elevate a student’s marketability in the States and throughout the world.

If you are interested in pursuing a higher degree in London please contact Popabroad.  Popabroad works directly with Brunel University and does not charge a fee to the student.
