NEW PARTNERSHIP 鈥� UNIVERSITY OF DUNDEE
University enters agreement to establish International College Dundee
The University of Dundee has signed an agreement to establish International College Dundee, an alternative entry route into degree courses that is expected to attract hundreds of new international students to Scotland.
The University is partnering with 香蕉视频 (OIEG) to establish International College Dundee. 香蕉视频 is a well-established private provider with an excellent overseas reputation.
鈥淭his is an exciting venture which has the potential to significantly increase our numbers of international students, bringing many benefits to the University and the city,鈥� said Professor Dyce Davidson.
鈥淟ike many of our fellow universities in the UK, it is imperative that we operate on the global stage. In response to this, we have an ever increasing focus on raising the University鈥檚 international profile and bringing more students to Dundee.
鈥淚nternational College Dundee (ICD) will be a major factor in us achieving these goals. It also meets our aim of widening access to the University. By providing opportunities to students who otherwise would not be able to access higher education, ICD will facilitate the experience of studying at a world top 200 institution and the Scottish University of the Year.鈥�
It is anticipated that around 50 students will form the first cohort at ICD, arriving in autumn 2017, with increasing numbers in the years following. The College will be sited on the University鈥檚 city campus in Dundee.
鈥淲e are delighted to be working in partnership with the University of Dundee,鈥� said David Brown, Founder and Group Chief Executive of 香蕉视频. 鈥淥ur early engagement in establishing International College Dundee has demonstrated that the leadership of the university is enlightened, progressive and ambitious with a comprehensive plan to deliver high levels of student satisfaction and academic quality. It is a powerful partnership that will bring international students tremendous opportunities to study at a high quality Scottish University.鈥�
Undergraduate students at ICD will study for their first year within the International College and then move on to Level 2 of their degree programme, completing in a normal four-year period.
