学校概况
罗汉普顿大学(Roehampton University)是一所友好、现代的公立大学,致力于提供学习与研究的最佳环境。两个绿化极好的校区位于伦敦西南方向,距离伦敦市中心只要约20分钟车程。罗汉普顿大学所处的地理位置非常独特,既靠近国际都市的中心,又远离喧嚣坐落在一片美丽、静谧的绿野之上。占地1000公顷的雷奇蒙皇家公园(Richmond Park)和大学相邻。学生既可以领略国际大都市的繁荣,又可以在安静、安全的环境中完成学业。与许多国际大都市相同伦敦充满了各种工作机会。国际学生无论读书期间从事兼职工作,或者学业完成之后致力于长久在英国获取国际工作经验,伦敦都为其提供了无数机会和可能性。
罗汉普顿大学自1841年招生以来,经历了教育业数十载的变迁,但始终保持着优秀的教学传统。大学共有四所学院,即商业与社会科学学院、艺术学院、教育学院、以及人文生命科学学院。大学目前有近9000名学生攻读不同学术课程,其中近900名是来自100多个不同国度的国际学生。学校目前共约60名中国学生在读。这为中国留学生提供了真正国际化的学习环境。
《星期日泰晤士》报院校指南(“The Sunday Times University Guide”)中这样评价:在研究领域里,罗汉普顿大学迅速跳跃到现代化大学的前沿。
(“Roehampton University jumps immediately to the top of the class of modern universities for research strength”)
Roehampton is a friendly, modern, lively community, dedicated to providing the best possible opportunities for learning and research. Our beautiful and historic campus in southwest London provides a stimulating environment in which to pursue your studies. The centre of London, one of the liveliest and most cosmopolitan cities in the world, with exceptional cultural and social facilities, is just a short journey away.
Our students enjoy close contact with academics working at the cutting edge of their subject and you will find yourself both challenged and supported to do your best work. We are proud of the achievements of our students, who have a strong record of doing well at Roehampton and of moving into exciting career opportunities after graduation.
Roehampton is made up of four Colleges, which, together with the Students' Union, provide a strong sense of community, where you can quickly feel at home, make friends and enjoy the many social and cultural activities on offer.
One of my priorities on joining Roehampton in September 2004 was to consult staff and students on a vision for the University. This builds on Roehampton's traditions and strengths while enabling us to create a distinctive identity and creating a University of which we can feel proud.
