Middlesex aims to be a global university, committed to meeting the needs and ambitions of a culturally and internationally diverse range of students by providing challenging academic programmes underpinned by innovative research and outstanding professional practice. Middlesex’s educational roots stretch back to the end of the 19th century when the first college opened its doors in 1878. Today Middlesex is one of the UK’s largest universities, with around 25,000 students located on three major London campuses and a further 5,000 students studying on Middlesex programmes in campuses around the globe.

Our academic programmes are offered within five Schools: Arts & Humanities, Health & Social Sciences; Education; Business and Computing Science. We are justly proud of our reputation and of the extensive range of our academic programmes. In 2005 Middlesex was awarded £6.5million for the creation of two national Centres for Excellence in Teaching & Learning from the Higher Education Funding Council for England. In 2003 the Quality Assurance Agency Institutional Audit gave Middlesex the highest rating possible. In the same year we won the Queen’s Award for Industry. The last 10 Quality Assurance Agency assessments resulted in ratings of ‘excellent’; and we gained top marks for Student Support & Guidance in the last 15 inspections. In addition, Middlesex University won three consecutive Queen’s Anniversary Prizes between 1996 and 2000.

Our student facilities include well-appointed study-bedrooms, most with en-suite shower and wc. All rooms have internet connection. Our lively student union offers a wide range of social activities to help students make new friends and meet others from around the world. If you take your sports seriously, our qualified instructors offer top-quality coaching. Middlesex sportspeople have competed successfully at regional, national and international levels.
