All of the courses offered through the University of London International Academy are developed by the Colleges of the University of London: for example, the suite of undergraduate courses in the fields of economics, management, finance and the social sciences are developed by the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), whilst the veterinary-related postgraduate courses are developed by the Royal Veterinary College. You can therefore benefit from their commitment to rigorous research which informs our degrees.
Business and government leaders, professionals and the media turn to University of London academics for the latest thinking on the important issues which shape our world. You can view a selection of our Academic inspiration videos [hosted our YouTube channel - external link] which feature the academics who are involved with our programmes talking about a topical issue.

A University of London degree awarded to a student who studied with the University of London International Programmes is of the same standard as a University of London degree awarded to students who study on campus of a University of London College. Although the study experience is different, the University of London makes no distinction in the standard of the award that students gain who study with the University of London International Programmes. Our students are examined to the same standard as students enrolled at a College of the University.
We maintain robust and effective quality assurance mechanisms. Academics who teach and assess College-based students develop syllabuses, prepare study materials, and are responsible for the assessment of International Programmes students, so you can be confident with the standard of your degree.
The University of London International Programmes has a long track record of working with prestigious independent teaching institutions across the world. We officially recognise institutions that offer study support to our students within our quality assurance framework. To find out more please visit - How can I get local support?
