New Study Group partnership launches to create business-focused London campus

The University of Huddersfield and Study Group have launched a new partnership to create a London campus offering business-focused postgraduate courses to international students.

The new campus, to be known as University of Huddersfield - London, will offer Master's courses in a range of subjects including Management, International Business, Computing and Marketing.

International students will be able to study a postgraduate degree validated by a UK university that excels in employability and high-quality teaching, which is delivered by a leading international education provider specialising in preparing students for higher education.

The first cohort of students will begin their study at University of Huddersfield - London at the start of the 2025-26 academic year.

The campus itself will be based in a new building on the recently redeveloped Sugar House Island, close to the business district of Canary Wharf and the Olympic Park where London hosted the Games in 2012.

London is consistently ranked as the number one city globally for students and is home to multinational company offices and European Headquarters, providing a range of post-study career opportunities for international students. 

Professor Alistair Sambell, Pro Vice-Chancellor for International and Dean of Huddersfield Business School at the University of Huddersfield said: "As one of Yorkshire's leading TEF gold-rated universities, we look forward to bringing our teaching excellence to international students wishing to study in London, on the doorstep of potential future employers.

"The University of Huddersfield has a diverse community of over 3,500 international students from over 100 countries, and we look forward to providing additional opportunities from our new London campus."

Provost and Chief Academic Officer at Study Group, Professor Elena Rodriguez-Falcon said: "Embedding employability into modern curricula, co-designed by a University renowned for teaching quality and industry links is an exciting opportunity for international students looking to study in London.

"Developing students for their future careers is core to Study Group's purpose - equipping students with the skills and academic qualifications they need to thrive. Enabling global career opportunities with an employability mindset is at the core of our partnership with the University of Huddersfield - London."

Study Group's partnership with the University of Huddersfield began in 2008, with the establishment of an International Study Centre on the University's town centre campus in Huddersfield.

The organisation works with 50 universities around the world bringing an expertise in international education.
