About
At London Metropolitan University we place students at the center of everything we do. We're constantly reviewing our courses to respond to the demands of the job market and give you a diverse choice. We offer most of our courses on both a full-time and part-time basis, and we are committed to providing you with the best possible support and resources.
Our dedicated careers and employability team will support and advise you both during and after your studies. We run a mentoring scheme, which can put you in touch with a professional from your chosen sector, as well as a graduate internship scheme, which offers around 30 paid internships each year. Many courses include work placement modules that count towards your final degree and many are accredited by professional bodies, which will give your qualification extra weight.
Our facilities include a £30 million Science Centre, a state-of-the-art mock courtroom and newsroom, specialist art and design workshops, and some of London's most advanced computer labs. Continued investment in IT facilities sees the installation of new PCs, for example in our Holloway Road Learning Centre, which also hosts a world-renowned research library. We are dedicated to supporting you throughout your studies. Our Student Services department is accredited by Matrix and has been awarded the Buttle Quality Mark for Care Leavers.
We are currently investing millions of pounds in creating a single campus in Islington, which is developing a more connected community. We have strong links with the local area and are committed to environmental sustainability, installing LED lights, solar panels, and energy-efficient air conditioning. As a result of this effort, we have been named England's number-one university for carbon reduction.
London Metropolitan University's rich history dates back to 1848 when the Metropolitan Evening Classes for Young Men were established. The University as it is today was created in 2002 with the merger of London Guildhall University and the University of North London, the first merger between two universities in the UK. However, its roots firmly lie in the nineteenth century. With a strong educational foundation, the University provides students with a quality education that is backed by years of experience.
