Top UK Universities on YouTube

Introduction

What are the most popular UK Universities on YouTube? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2024 YouTube University Ranking (April 2024 data) of all UK higher-education institutions on YouTube meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate UK higher education-related organization in each country
offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

Some large Universities adopt multiple YouTube channels associated, for example, with each academic division (i.e. College, Faculty, Department, etc.) and each administrative area (i.e. Admissions, Marketing and Communications, Alumni, etc.). uniRank has chosen the most general institutional YouTube channel for each University.
