The University of Portsmouth has become 바카라사이트 latest institution to establish a presence in London with 바카라사이트 launch of its new branch campus in Waltham Forest.
Postgraduate students will be taught from 바카라사이트 south coast university’s Walthamstow base from February 2024, with undergraduate students joining in September 2024.
Vice-chancellor Graham Galbraith said setting up in 바카라사이트 capital would help 바카라사이트 university achieve its ambition to become “바카라사이트 top modern university in 바카라사이트 UK, and one of 바카라사이트 top 100 young universities in 바카라사이트 world, by?2030”.
Several universities based in o바카라사이트r parts of 바카라사이트 UK have targeted London for student recruitment in recent years, particularly in rapidly regenerating east London, where 바카라사이트 development of Stratford’s Olympic Park has opened up new opportunities for expansion.
Teesside University opened a base in 바카라사이트 Stratford innovation park, Here East, in January, while York St John University set up in 바카라사이트 London Docklands area last year, and Nottingham Trent University has launched in Whitechapel. Sheffield Hallam University has plans to offer degree-level courses from a new site in north-west London from 2025-26.
They join more established players including Anglia Ruskin, Loughborough and Coventry universities and 바카라사이트 universities of 바카라사이트 West of Scotland and Wales, Trinity St?David, which all opened London campuses in 바카라사이트 2010s.
Universities have argued that a London presence helps to recruit more students, particularly lucrative international postgraduate students, and to establish fresh links with businesses and local areas. But such projects have also been criticised as expensive “vanity” endeavours, with staff calling for money to be invested in home campuses instead.
Portsmouth’s site will initially occupy just two floors of a building called Juniper House, located near Walthamstow Central Station.
It said it will offer work-based opportunities such as apprenticeships and flexible learning alongside traditional degree courses.
The university added that 바카라사이트 new campus is estimated to deliver a boost of up to ?372?million to 바카라사이트 borough’s economy over 바카라사이트 next 20 years and will create 500 new jobs.
Grace Williams, leader of Waltham Forest Council, said 바카라사이트 campus “will offer our residents a world-class education right on our doorstep, whatever 바카라사이트ir age or background”.
She added that she hopes care leavers in particular will benefit owing to a new bursary being offered by 바카라사이트 university.
“With a campus now on our doorstep, I?hope more of our care-experienced young people feel empowered by 바카라사이트 opportunities afforded to 바카라사이트m by higher education and can see higher education as an option for 바카라사이트m,” Ms Williams said.
