New India office for Teesside University

Teesside University is building on its international reputation by opening a new office in India, dedicated to establishing high-quality partnerships and student recruitment opportunities in the region.

The Gurgaon office has also welcomed a new Director, Padmini Parameswaran, to drive forward recruitment from the area.

An official launch took place this week and was attended by representatives from The British Council, UK Trade & Investment, local education partners and international student recruitment agencies.

The new India team is already hard at work and has spent the last few months providing opportunities for students to begin their study at Teesside University from September 2017.

Teesside University, which also has offices in China and Malaysia, has a strong international community on its campus and has graduated students from more than 100 different countries. In the latest i-graduate’s International Student Barometer, Teesside recorded the highest overall average satisfaction levels of all the 42 participating UK institutions, placing the University in the top six percent of the 159 participating world universities which surveyed their international students.

Dr David Bell, Pro Vice-Chancellor (International) at Teesside University, said: 'We are always striving to provide an outstanding student and learning experience for both our home and international students.

'Teesside University is an institution with an outstanding international reputation which provides a rich variety of programmes, underpinned by research, enterprise and the professions.

'We are continually working to engage with potential students and high-quality partners around the world to create opportunities for global study opportunities.

'Our new office in India is part of that commitment and I am looking forward to working with colleagues and partners and showcasing our university as a world-class destination.'
