Following in the footsteps of Cambridge-based Anglia Ruskin University, the University of Northampton has joined forces with the London School of Marketing to offer international students a UK accredited degree, with a majority of learning delivered via online and students submitting coursework from their home country.

Students from countries including: Qatar, Nigeria, Pakistan, China, Dubai, Jordan, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Russia are offered a range of courses from an MBA top up, an MA in Human Resource Management and LLM International Commercial Law.

CFO of London School of Marketing, Anton Dominique, said: “The partnership with the University of Northampton means we can offer our students a wider selection of courses to choose from. In particular for those looking to do a specialised postgraduate qualification such as Human Resources, Accounting, Finance or Law.”

He continued: “Since first teaming up with Anglia Ruskin University we’re seen a big increase in the number of students looking to gain a UK University accredited degree. As a successfully established online course provider of educational qualifications, we will continue to expand our product portfolio, in order to meet the rising needs of international students.”

Reportedly, the new initiative has already seen 130 students enrol on the available courses.
