We're a university that puts its students first and have been doing so for over a hundred years. Our central location is great for seeing all that London has to offer and our strong employer links keep our course content highly relevant. Our students are our customers and their achievements and satisfaction are paramount to us. So we continually develop and improve a truly integrated framework of student support that works across and between faculties. Get to know us and you'll see why we're the university of choice for over 25,000 students.
We give our students the talent to meet workplace needs to improve their career progression. Course content sees students carry out cutting-edge radiography examinations; design for international rugby league teams; start their own theatre company; create innovative products like the Tyligo or turn a hobby into a career. We won the bid to be the only London university to offer government staff both the Masters in Business Administration (MBA) and Masters in Public Administration (MPA).
