About Us

We are a progressive London university that puts our students first. We are proud to provide expert teaching that is informed by inspiring research and practice.

Innovation and diversity

For nearly 140 years Middlesex University London and its predecessor institutions have been home to innovators and change-makers. We boast one of the most diverse communities of students and staff of any university in the UK, with almost 19,400 students and 1,900 staff from 140 different countries at our modern north London campus in Hendon.

Teaching and research excellence

We are proud of our achievements in teaching and research. In 2017 we received a silver award for high-quality teaching in the government's new Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF). We also became the highest-ranked modern university in London in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide.

Employability and future careers

Over 91% of our students are in employment or further study six months after graduating. To achieve this, we work with employers to make sure that our students learn what employers need giving them a solid foundation for inspiring careers.

Our contribution to the community

Middlesex University London is dedicated to making a positive difference to the local community in Barnet. We generate more than £280 million a year for Barnet’s economy, including supporting some 3,800 local jobs.
