Cultivating possibility in London’s heart How Regent’s University London stands out from the crowd
Choosing a university can be a daunting time for young people and parents alike. It marks their first step into adulthood, and brings with it both excitement and apprehension.
But London punches well above its weight for university students, with the chance to gain valuable experiences, build a network of professional connections, make friends from all over the world, and enjoy a thriving social life. No wonder it’s been named the best city in the world to be a student for the fourth year in a row [QS World University Rankings].
Based in in the heart of the city is Regent’s University London – a unique institution that reimagines higher education for today’s generation.
Experience a new way of learning
At Regent’s, education isn’t all about lecture halls and essay-writing. Instead,
it’s about learning by doing, from some of the best in the business, through real challenges, projects and briefs that bring students’ studies to life. This form of ‘active learning’ tests their ability to apply their knowledge to real workplace scenarios and build relevant, future-ready skills.
The University acknowledges that all students are unique and offers a flexible curriculum enabling them to design their own course – mixing modules across subject areas to expand their skillset and deepen their knowledge. They can combine Business, Sustainability, Finance, Languages, Theatre, Digital Design and more – and that’s encouraged, because experimentation fuels growth.
Build global connections
It’s important to start building connections and networks from a young age, and Regent’s can help with both. It attracts students from over 140+ nationalities, meaning it’s easy to make friends from all corners of the globe. Students all form such deep relationships; they often join forces to launch brands and businesses, invest in each other’s start-ups and share advice and contacts.
In class, teaching staff keep their fingers on the pulse – building strong bonds
with businesses and brands at the highest level. Their partnership with Walpole
(the official body for UK luxury) attracts names like Harrods, Ferrari, McLaren Automotive, Burberry and Meta, and offers opportunities to pitch ideas, work on briefs and build authentic connections with powerful CEOs and MDs.
Receive tailored support – for life
With a population of under 3000 students, Regent’s can afford to take a tailored approach – with learning and support centred around student’s individual needs and goals. In their first week, they’ll be paired with a Personal Tutor and Student Experience Officer, providing two friendly faces that they can turn to throughout their time at university.
Career consultants, academic advisors, alumni mentors and the Student Union also offer guidance and support via tutorials and group workshops – and regularly invite guest speakers onto campus to share their insights and experiences. No matter what challenge your child might face, Regent’s has someone that can help. Not tomorrow, not in a week’s time, right now.
And once your child graduates, they’ll be given an exclusive black card which they can use to access support services, alumni networks, expert facilities and campus events for life.
Work and play in the city
With such a strong reputation and influence worldwide, studying in the city will be
sure to get your loved one noticed. With a variety of placements and internship opportunities on their doorstep, not to mention museums, libraries, events and businesses, it’s the place to be to see their career soar – setting them apart when it’s time to apply for jobs.
And when they’re not studying, they’ll have London as their playground – visiting iconic landmarks and bustling shopping streets, experiencing café culture and
city nightlife, or travelling further afield: from the UK’s coastal towns to Europe’s sun-soaked beaches. The options are endless!
At Regent’s, we’re cultivating possibility.
