The city has a good number of pubs, restaurants, and shops; hence, it is easy to get a part-time job while studying at the University of Edinburgh.

In fact, there are quite a few on-campus jobs through the university's own hiring services. However, it is not that easy with full heavy academic commitments and good time management skills, as to be fair; there are always opportunities, although it is subjective and dependent on individual circumstances and capability of juggling work and study.
