In the most recent Research Excellence Framework exercise, a joint submission by the School and Scotland's Rural College in the unit of assessment on Agriculture, Veterinary &amp; Food Science placed first in the United Kingdom. The Institute became part of the University of Edinburgh in 2008 and moved to a £60M state-of-the-art building at the Easter Bush Campus in 2011. This is now occupied by &gt;400 staff, students and visitors, including around 65 Group Leaders and Tenure Track Fellows on a path to independence. The Institute has a vibrant programme of postgraduate research and a thriving student community (<a href="https://vet.ed.ac.uk/roslin/work-study/postgraduate" target="_blank">https://vet.ed.ac.uk/roslin/work-study/postgraduate</a>) (opens in a new browser tab).
