Where can I study abroad?
With the opening of our Malaysia Campus in 2000, The University of Nottingham was the first UK university to open a branch campus overseas. This was followed in 2004 by the opening of our China Campus in Ningbo.
Malaysia
The Malaysia Campus is situated near the town of Semenyih, 45 minutes drive from the capital Kuala Lumpur. The purpose-built campus opened in 2005 and provides on-campus accommodation, free sports facilities (including an outdoor swimming pool), and a multi-level library, as well as state-of-the-art teaching and learning facilities. The campus has 3,399 students from over 67 different countries.
China
The China Campus is situated in Ningbo - a city of over five million people situated on the East coast of China. Ningbo is just a one hour flight from Shanghai and two hours by air from Beijing.The campus at Ningbo provides accommodation, sports facilities and a shopping street. The campus has 4,431 students.
