Our Partners

At the heart of University Studies is collaboration: with students, with communities, with industry.

We set out to establish these high-quality connections, because we know the best way to achieve greater things is by working together. By partnering with key institutions in British Higher Education we can bring you a tailored, personalised experience that you can trust is on a par with the British University sector.

We are very proud of our partnership with the University of East Anglia, as the awarding body for all our Honours students joining from September 2021. The University of East Anglia is a highly respected top-30 UK University and a global top-50 research institution, which influences policymakers and industry leaders across the globe with new ideas, knowledge and solutions that have a far-reaching impact.

Because the UEA works closely with University Studies to support our development of new degree programmes, you can be assured the education you are receiving from us is equivalent to the very 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.

All Higher National Certificate (HNC) and Higher National Diploma (HND) courses at USWSC are awarded by Pearson, the world’s learning company, and the UK’s recognised provider of higher national qualifications. We have collaborated with Pearson to give 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*West Suffolk College’s partnership with the University of Suffolk is currently in the process of being withdrawn, with no new recruitment to University of Suffolk validated programmes at the College beyond the 2020-21 academic year.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.
