How we teach
Courses for careers
At the University of East London, we go beyond a traditional education.
Our teaching focuses on the complete person, offering a personalised and flexible approach that takes account of your career-readiness, wellbeing and soft skills, as well as traditional academic tuition.
Online and offline
After a year of teaching online, we’re ready to get back on campus – but we’re holding on to a lot of the innovations we made during the pandemic.
You’ll have plenty of face-to-face contact hours, access to our superb facilities and all the extra-curricular benefits of a life on campus, but with the flexibility to access learning materials, lectures and resources online when you need to.
We’re creating a seamless blend of the traditional university experience and the modern digital classroom.
Personalised journey
Ultimately, your educational experience is tailored to you – you’ll have clarity on your timetabling and learning objectives, dedicated academic and careers support, access to wellbeing services, help with fees and funding, and opportunities to thrive with volunteering, sport and fitness coaching, industry networking and much more.
Flexible study
We also offer a lot of flexibility in our courses, and not just in your module choices. You can study full-time or part-time, with the option to move between study modes when you need to.
Many of our courses also offer placements, internships or apprenticeships that you can choose from to give you additional experience for your CV.
