Campuses

Middlesex University has several campuses across north London. Each offers specialist facilities and is friendly and welcoming. Ranging in style from modern centres to buildings, which have been standing for hundreds of years, the campuses include a mansion house and country park estate, purpose-built sites, and bases at four leading teaching hospitals. Each campus has its own distinct personality and unique atmosphere - and at the same time offers the same 'Middlesex experience'. Halls of residence are located on campus or conveniently close by. The predominantly urban surroundings of the University means there is also a good choice of private rented accommodation.

Commuting is straightforward: public transport links connect the campus network, there are designated University cycle routes and all its major centres have car parks.

Following are the various study options available for the students:

• Access to Higher Education
  
  If a student is returning to education after a long break or in later life, he can choose to study on one of the several Middlesex validated access courses run by the university's partner colleges. This stepping-stone is particularly well suited to students without formal qualifications.
   
• Undergraduate Pathways
  
  The students have options to study at undergraduate level and develop their degree based on the University's modular programme.
   
• Postgraduate Pathways
  
  Postgraduate study encompasses three main study routes and most can be followed on either a full or part-time basis.
