About University of Greenwich International College
The University of Greenwich International College (UGIC) is an embedded pathway college that prepares international students for degrees at the University of Greenwich in south-east London. It is run by Oxford International Education Group in partnership with the university; the deal was announced in February 2018 and the first students were due to start that September. The college is based in Bounty House, Stowage, London SE8 3DE, a short walk from the university's Greenwich campus at the Old Royal Naval College, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It offers an International Year Zero, the first year of a four-year degree, in Business and Management, Computing, Engineering, Science, and Social Sciences and Law. An International Year One in Business and Management leads into the second year of a three-year degree. The International Incorporated Master's prepares graduates for one-year master's degrees in business and computing over one term (10 weeks) or two terms (20 weeks). Pre-sessional English courses of 6 or 12 weeks are available for students below the entry level. UGIC students hold full university student status from day one, use Greenwich facilities, and one visa covers both the pathway and the degree. Successful students progress directly to their chosen University of Greenwich degree.
