In the top 15 in all United Kingdom league tables, and the Times and Sunday Times International University of the Year in 2020, Lancaster University has established itself as a world player in research and teaching. Students from one hundred countries make up a thriving community based on a beautiful parkland campus.

Lancaster has several partnerships across the world to ensure it delivers teaching that takes students to the frontiers of knowledge and produces graduates who can compete in a global job market. There are four strategic global partnerships offering Lancaster degrees in China, Germany, Ghana and Malaysia and the vision for all our strategic partnerships is to offer a full university experience across teaching, research and engagement. Approximately one-third of all Lancaster University students are studying on one of these partner campuses.

The strategy seeks to consolidate Lancaster University’s status as a leading global research-intensive university. Global leadership is defined as being a “go to” university for research, teaching and engagement that is widely respected for its record of transforming lives, communities, practice and thinking in countries across the globe.
