Collaborative Partnerships

Queen Margaret University has strong international links with countries such as India, Singapore, Greece and the Gulf States. We have collaborative partnerships with overseas institutions as listed below.

Through collaborative partnerships, a number of the courses we teach in Scotland are now also taught in various centres of learning throughout the world. Some of our agreements allow international students to come to QMU to study part, or all, of their degree course.

In 2008, we became the first UK university with a campus in Singapore, following the opening of the QMU Asia campus, a joint venture between the university and the East Asia Institute of Management (EASB).

As part our commitment to our local community, we have also have collaborative agreements with East Lothian Council and with Jewel and Esk College focused on enabling each institution to fulfil its potential for the benefit of society. We also have a number of local collaborative partners with whom we deliver a range of specialist programmes.

We have an active international student exchange and study abroad programme that includes agreements with universities in USA, Canada, Australia, Spain, Japan, Sweden, Norway, Portugal, Czech Republic, France and Germany.
