The University of Nottingham is a world-leading comprehensive research-intensive institution with a distinctive and pioneering global platform. The University’s ethos is built on the premise that education and research transforms lives and societies around the world. This drives a commitment to excellence in teaching, learning and graduate outcomes, and to unlocking the potential of 45,000 students across campuses in the UK, China and Malaysia. At the University of Nottingham, the culture is ambitious, simultaneously creative and collaborative, and without boundaries. Looking ahead to the period 2020 and beyond, the University is in the process of developing our new 21st Century global strategy, which will undoubtedly seek to build on our commitment to place the student experience at the heart of everything we do.
