Career Led Teaching

The University of Roehampton London offers a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses across six Schools and Faculties:

You will have access to study skills and career support from your first year, including our thriving career mentoring scheme, which pairs Roehampton students with our successful graduates, and opportunities for placements across all of our courses. Our services are designed to support students from all backgrounds, including those with professional and personal commitments. This includes providing physical and 24/7 online careers and study resources. 

We’re pleased to announce that from September 2023 we are scheduling our teaching across no more than three days each week for the first year of most of our degrees, to provide you with the flexibility you need while you study.  And we'll confirm which days these are well in advance of the start of term, so you can plan ahead.

Our results speak for themselves: Roehampton graduates earn £130 more per year than the average UK graduate and £1,150 more than the average graduate from a modern London university (Longitudinal Education Outcomes (LEO) results); and 93% of our undergraduate students are in work or further study within six months of graduation according to official national figures (Destinations of Leavers of Higher Education Survey results).

Student Life and Facilities

At Roehampton, you will have the chance to get involved, find new interests and develop your abilities beyond your subject of study. Our campus facilities include a world-class library, a state-of-the-art digital media centre, a gym and esports arena - all open to every student. You can play sport and music, join one of our many student societies and enjoy the cafés and bars we have on our beautiful parkland campus.

We have many student societies you can join, and our Students’ Union will help you if you want to set one up. There are around 50 in total, including a Film Society, Vegan Society, LGBTQ+ Society, Esports Society and Gaming Society . Our Students' Union has live music, karaoke and regular Friday night club night, The Bop.  There are cafés, bars and social spaces across our campus, including the Hive Café, which is run by our students and serves produce that's made through our thriving Growhampton sustainability initiative.

We have plenty of opportunities for you to play sport, including football, badminton, yoga, cheerleading and rowing. We also have an active musical scene, and whether you want to play jazz, classical music or get involved in musical theatre. And if you are interested in esports and gaming, we have opened one of the largest and best-equipped university esports arenas in the country. We also have thriving chaplaincy activities for students of faith, including prayer facilities for different faiths across our campus.
