Teaching quality

Kingston University staff members are research-active and respected in their fields. Many maintain business and industry links or are active practitioners of their subjects.

Our students work with people at the forefront of the latest thinking and practice. Several have been awarded the prestigious National Teaching Fellowships.

This dynamic combination of researchers and practitioners creates a cutting-edge environment, recognised in the external reviews of the University.

A global qualification

Teaching qualityA degree from Kingston University will stand you in good stead wherever in the world you want to work. Our wide range of courses is constantly increasing to make sure it remains relevant.

If you are an international student, studying in the UK will add extra value to your CV and enable you to prove to employers that you:

  • are competent in English;
  • can integrate into another society;
  • have a different range of academic and professional skills; and
  • have a wider perspective on life.

We offer shorter degree programmes than institutions in many other countries, including the US, Canada and European non-Bologna institutions. For example, most of our full-time MA/MSc courses are one year.

This gives you more flexibility and the chance to move into the job market sooner. We also offer flexible options, particularly popular among UK students who have work or other commitments.

A cutting-edge university

Further evidence of the high quality of our teaching and innovative outlook includes initiatives such as:

  • HEFCE-funding of £4million for a teaching alliance with St George's, University of London and Royal Holloway, University of London; and
  • the purchase of two archives and letters relating to Iris Murdoch and the subsequent establishment of the Centre for Iris Murdoch Studies.
