Two Degrees | One Programme

An American Approach to Learning

We’re enormously proud of our American heritage. Richmond is the UK university where all undergraduate degrees are offered in the American system of education, based in the liberal arts, allowing you to shape your own learning according to your interests and needs.

Combined with the UK specialist approach to education, this academic path provides a wealth of opportunities that few UK universities can match.

Careers & Internships

An internship provides students with exposure to the demands of specific jobs in specific sectors and allows students to learn from professionals in their chosen field.

The practical skills and experience that students gain by carrying out an internship not only provide a taste of what it would be like to work in a given sector, but it also greatly increases a student’s employability in an ever-competitive job market.
