Middlesex University offers courses and qualifications that are designed, assessed, and quality assured by the university but delivered in partnership with another institution. One such program is the BA (Hons) Graphic Design (Top-up).


This partnership began in the early 1990s and has facilitated an overseas study program through HKU Space for nearly 30 years. Lecturers from HKU Space work closely with course leaders from Middlesex University to address local delivery and specific regional needs while ensuring alignment with the general module requirements and learning outcomes. This international educational collaboration encourages Professional Development Planning from a global perspective. Students not only learn UK-standard academic content but also apply their local experiences to projects within a global context.


The University of Hong Kong School of Professional and Continuing Education is a private post-secondary education institution in Hong Kong. The school is a private subsidiary of the publicly-funded University of Hong Kong.


Some localized Lecturing material:


Eugenie's experience at HKU Space: I have been part of HKU Space for nearly seven years, and it has been an enriching learning journey. With this international university partnership, I also gained the academic standard from Middlesex University. The program carries a big space of flexibility in course material to ensure a student's learning journey is remarkable. Most students from this project have working experience and are looking forward to a change in their careers.


Course material by Middlesex University: A well-planned syllabus and high-quality lecture material, resulting in an excellent learning outcome. Students can apply visual communication skills and marketing/PR research skills to design. However, the lecture and tutorial time is limited as it is a summer course, and some students found it challenging to finish all learning outcomes during such a short period. It was my pleasure working with the team; the learning centre has excellent facilities and updated equipment, with clear instructions on module coordination as


Testimonial

‘HKU SPACE has been a franchise partner of Middlesex University since the early 1990’s. This means that whilst course content is developed by Middlesex University, HKU SPACE provides local lectures and tutorials that comply with Middlesex’s Quality Assurance processes. These courses have been instrumental in meeting the changing needs in education in Hong Kong. Both institutions are committed to this quality provision which is underpinned by the key role of link tutors as well as the excellent teaching provided by Middlesex staff during their visits.'
