What are the Russell Group Universities?
The Russell Group Universities are a group of
twenty-four universities that self-selected themselves and formed this group.
This group only includes public research universities present in United Kingdom
only. The main objective to create this group was to be able to represent the
interest of different universities to the government. Another one was to ensure
that all these universities contained the ideal conditions which would help all
the students to find equal opportunities and flourish both academically and
socially in the society. These universities feel immense pride in being part of
this group and that they have been playing an important role in the success of
their country.
The Russell Group Website
There is an official website of the Russell
Group as well where they provide all the details of the universities and of all
the research work that is going on in all these twenty-four universities. There
is information on different conferences, the new and huge impacts that these
universities are making on the world along with the achievements of its student

contains videos and all the details to the admission related queries. The
website is fully aimed to help the current and the prospective students which

universities.
