Our Partners

Collaboration is at the heart of University Studies. We believe that great things happen when we work together with students, communities, and industries.

University of East Anglia

We’re proud to partner with the University of East Anglia (UEA), which has been the awarding body for our degree students since September 2021. UEA is a highly regarded UK Top 25 University (Complete University Guide 2024) and World Top 30 University (The Times/Sunday Times University Guide 2024), influencing policymakers and industry leaders worldwide.

Our close partnership with UEA ensures that the education you receive meets the highest standards in UK Higher Education. We design the experience, provide the support, and develop the intellectual content of the degrees, and UEA helps us to reach, strive and refine what we do, as well as, ultimately, providing you with a UEA degree that will be recognised and respected the world over.

Pearson

All our Higher National Certificates (HNC) and Diplomas (HND) are awarded by Pearson, the UK’s most recognised provider of Higher National qualifications. This collaboration gives you the confidence that you’re part of a recognised and respected community of Higher National award holders; qualifications that British companies know, respect and require for technical roles such as those in the engineering sector. By giving our students command of a high-quality and nationally standardised body of knowledge, our delivery of Pearson’s HNCs and HNDs reflects our commitment to learning that can take you where you want to go and improve your professional prospects so you can secure your ideal career.

*West Suffolk College’s partnership with the University of Suffolk is currently in the process of being withdrawn, with no new recruitment to University of Suffolk validated programmes at the College beyond the 2020-21 academic year. All students who commenced their course under the awarding authority of the University of Suffolk in 2020-21, or earlier, will continue to be registered with the University of Suffolk and will be taught out under the current partnership arrangement in accordance with the University’s Student Protection Plan.
