The cost of studying at University of Strathclyde largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen. 

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay £28,250 annually, to study in University of Strathclyde.

Employment prospects are excellent, with recent graduates working in power engineering consultancy, global power utilities (generation, supply and distribution), renewable energy sector, Oil&Gas industry and manufacturing. Professional and technical positions are as electrical engineers, power systems specialists, energy transition engineer in future electrification systems such as transportation, Oil&Gas and asset managers in large energy utilities such as Iberdrola, EDF Energy and China State Grid.
