Location & Facilities
As well as the excitement of living in one of the world's most lively and cosmopolitan cities London obviously offers spectacular resources and opportunities for learning outside the classroom. However, Richmond courses also bring the life of the city - its people, institutions, politics, problems and history into lectures and class projects. Add to all this an international faculty, flexible curriculum allowing you to explore outside your main specialization, small classes and campuses in two of London's most beautiful areas and you'll find Richmond a great place to earn an undergraduate or masters degree.

The campus also accommodates student residences, a dining hall, student common room, and faculty and administrative offices.
