Established in 1983, the Centre for Health Economics has a leading international reputation, and is now one of the world’s largest health economics research units, employing about 40 researchers and having associations with at least 200 academics forming the broader community of health economics specialists at the University of York.

The University of York is widely recognised as one of the leading research universities in the UK. The University is also at the top of the teaching quality rankings. It has high levels of demand for undergraduate and postgraduate places from the UK, Europe and across the world. The University was described by The Sunday Times as “one of Britain’s academic success stories, forging a reputation to rival Oxford and Cambridge in the space of 40 years”.
