We work closely with a number of collaborative partners both in the UK and overseas to deliver courses that lead to a university award. These relationships give us the opportunity to enhance our academic offering and provide the best possible learning experience to a wider audience.
We are able to support franchised or validated collaborative partnership arrangements (Collaborative Arrangements 2023-24 ). The University is ultimately responsible for the academic quality of all of its awards and as such, all of our collaborative partners are subject to quality processes as outlined in the Collaborative Academic Partnership Lifecycle Process Guide.
