Our people

We believe our exceptionally committed people, coupled with our students, make the University of London International Programmes the undoubted worldwide success it is today. 

Since the founding of the University of London International Programmes in 1858 (then known as the External System), our people, including staff from the constituent Colleges of the University, have continued to play a key role in retaining our position as a world leader in distance and flexible learning. 

Today, across 180 countries, the 52,000 strong student community of the International Programmes continues to grow year-on-year, as does the community of recognised teaching institutions providing local student support for our programmes.

Across the globe, the International Programmes is proving to be a vibrant and dynamic organisation which is highly valued and recognised for its internationally renowned study programmes and for its positive impact on the lives of individuals, society and the world at large. 

Our people in London are at the heart of this vibrant and dynamic organsiation, which cuts across all barriers to deliver our high quality programmes.
