The value of a British degree

British higher education is world class. The excellence of the teaching and research in British universities is acknowledged worldwide.

• If you study through the University of London International Programmes, wherever you are in the world, you will be studying for a degree which follows the rigorous standards set by the British government for all UK higher education.
• The approach to learning that we follow, and is common to all British degrees, fosters independent thinking, analytical skills and self-discipline. This will give you an edge when you're competing for a job as these are skills employers value.
• Studying in English will enable you to improve your English language skills and give you a headstart in an international career.
• As we use dependable assessment methods - including unseen written exams, with rigorous checks for cheating, you can be confident about the value of your degree.
• An  independent body - the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) safeguards the quality and standards of Higher Education and regularly audits the quality of UK universities.
