The University of London International Programmes is the world's oldest provider of degrees through flexible learning. Our internationally renowned awards have been accessible to students across the world since 1858. Today, we are proud to have more than 54,000 students in over 180 countries.

Teaching institutions have played a central role in the success of the University of London International Programmes over the last 155 years. Not only have they helped us realise our vision of providing a life-changing, high quality university education to those who could benefit, but they have enhanced the learning experience of countless students.

In recognition of this important role, in 2009 we introduced the Teaching Institutions Recognition Framework to formalise our relationships with teaching institutions. This framework aims to create closer links with selected high quality teaching institutions around the world, by recognising those that meet a set of specific quality criteria in respect to the support they provide to International Programmes students.

The Millennium University College is an Affiliate Centre for the University of London International Programmes. This is the highest level of recognition and means that in the considered view of the University of London it demonstrates a sustained commitment to developing excellence in respect of teaching, support to students and administrative processes.

We are delighted that TMUC is a member of our network of recognised centres and we hope that being part of this network will contribute to its ongoing development and result in an even closer relationship with the University of London International Programmes. Ultimately, this will help to ensure that International Programmes students at The Millennium University College have a high quality and rewarding learning experience.

Fatima MohsinBSc Politics and IR

A flower blooms in the brightest of conditions. After testing and trying institutes for my UoL programme for 2 years, TMUC made up for their shortfalls remarkably well in my final year. I do wish I had gotten more time on this campus, but I definitely felt the good vibes from the day I stepped in and onwards.

Being a politics student, I was expected to develop an outgoing persona to create connections and a network. TMUC's administration added up exceptionally in promoting and encouraging me to participate to my fullest in my degree programme and relevant events.

My aims and targets have become clearer as I now graduate and I feel confident and fully equipped to enter a positively competitive world. I further plan to pursue a masters in Peace and Conflict Studies abroad and contribute to Pakistan's international relations arena.

Temour Ali Khan

Education is the key to unlocking the world, a passport to freedom. I can confidently say that I am a proud Student of TMUC and University of London. The environment TMUC has provided me throughout my journey has helped me acquire skill set to pursue my dreams.

In response to those who say to stop dreaming and face reality, I say keep dreaming and make reality happen. The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. I cannot wait to see where life takes me next. I would definitely rate TMUC as one of the best institutions in Pakistan for offering globally recognized and accepted International qualifications.


BSc Politics and IR

Syed Wasil KaleemBSc International Development

I am extremely proud of myself for the milestone that I have achieved at this point in my life, one of the most profound ones thus far I must say, but not for all the obvious reasons that one might envisage. Rather, it was a struggle for myself, a struggle to enable myself to grow and develop, a struggle to find who I truly am, and above all, a struggle to identify my potential and abilities and to strive to live up to them. By the grace of God, I am proud to have significantly succeeded.

Studying with the University of London has undoubtedly been an immensely unique, wonderful and a fruitful journey. Most of all, it has taught me to challenge my existing set of beliefs, values and ideas and to look beyond the obvious in a critical fashion, for there is more than what meets the eye.


Shahnawaz Larik BSc Politics and IR

You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl in life - Jalaludin Rumi

The Millennium University College, my Alma mater, taught me how to spread my wings, it gave me what I required to get up and fly. The University of London International Program gave me the direction I needed to advance myself as a person and my studies. As I look back at the time spent in TMUC I realize that it has provided me with immense opportunities, co-curricular and extracurricular activities that I required to grow as a wholesome student.

I thank my professors who polished my skills and the friends I made in TMUC who helped me become the person I am today - I will always cherish both.


Hadi Fyiz AhmadBSc Business and Management

As the journey of my bachelors come to a prodigious end, I look back at the time where I found myself with a Pre-medical A levels background, with hardly any interest to pursue a life in clinics. There I learnt about the University of London Bachelors program which comes with a lot of academic rigor. Whenever I was kicked down, either by the arduous Economics or the grinding calculations of Mathematics, I found TMUC right by my side whether I needed an extra class for Math or an essential guide book from the library.

I chose to do BSc Business & Management with insignificant knowledge about business and I'm proud to say that I have completed the program with knowledge varying from core management concepts to principles of marketing, derivation of sums to cash flow statements. The effort put in this degree pays off - it requires hard work, dedication and constant assistance of qualified TMUC teachers and not to forget the jewel known to us as VLE. I conclude my write up and begin a new chapter of my life with the well put words by Neil Gaiman-"Now go, and make interesting mistakes, make amazing mistakes, make glorious and fantastic mistakes. Break rules. Leave the world more interesting for your being here.”

Surriya SalahuddinBSc Economics and Management

Studying with the UOL International programs has given me the opportunity to learn about diverse subjects with the ease of obtaining a world class degree in my home country. This degree has given me an opportunity to broaden my horizon worldwide in terms of academics academic and career opportunities.

Joining TMUC in my graduating year has proved to be a very supportive institute, providing ample opportunities to students as well as well-versed teachers to guide us through the program. It ensures to provide students with opportunities that make your experience in the degree and at college worthwhile.


Daniyal ShahidBSc Politics and IR

My name is Daniyal Shahid and I am studying politics and IR at The Millennium University College. I started my degree 3 years before and appreciate how welcoming everyone was at TMUC.

It gave me exciting opportunities such as president of entertainment society first and then president of international relations society, which boosted my social skills and at the same time enhancing my knowledge.

I thank my awesome teachers for encouraging me to do my best, even when times were tough. What I have learned most from these years at TMUC is “Never give up.”

Nabigha HashmiBSc International Development

You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think. With dormant talent and perseverance not tested, complacency becomes normal but given the right set of challenges a student can certainly prevail and rise up to the occasion. "A shiny armor means it has never been tested". TMUC has a culture which makes you go through rigorous regimes enabling you to enhance ones inner capabilities. Needless to say this place has been the best academic experience of my life. Every student who walks through the gates of TMUC must realize that this place holds a reputation which is second to none.


Farheen Ali KhanBSc International Development

To be able to acquire more of what this world has to offer, I must truly appreciate what I already have. So here's to my parents, my great teachers and the university that made it all possible, TMUC. It presented me with the incredible opportunities needed to polish my skills and succeed in this world. Thank you for your support and guidance.

Having grown up abroad, TMUC seemed like the perfect choice to start my undergraduate years. It provides you with the support needed to get through these important years enabled by personal interactions with your professors and a very friendly staff. The diversity and opportunities coupled with the UoL programme make for a recipe of success. The University of London International programme will enhance your skills in such a way, that you will be ready to take on the world with confidence and a voice to be heard.

Osama Naseem LLB Hons

The world is small and the life we have is even smaller, make sure you live it to its fullest!

Just overcome the fear that lies within you so you could tell the world who you are with confidence. Just like diamonds, the artist within you could only shine if you choose the right platform. Indeed, University of London and TMUC contributed to it in every manner possible.

This degree not only enhanced my analytical, writing and research skills but even polished my speaking skills. I am extremely grateful to my teachers who were cooperative, wonderful and amicable throughout my journey of becoming a Lawyer.


Habza ShahLLB Hons

The past three years of LLB have been quite a rollercoaster ride. Studying law can be overwhelming at times but the one thing I am most thankful for is the amazing teachers in TMUC. Their support has helped grow my passion for a law career and the intellectual debates and discussions held in class are absolutely invaluable.

What makes TMUC great is its dedication to constantly provide students with opportunities beyond academics and to engage in diverse group activities that allow students to expand their horizon. I was able to get the college experience I had always wanted.

Haji Idrees LLB Hons

Do not make your goal to be the best. Best is a label. It's something someone else decides for you. 'Better' is more personal. I still remember the day when I had to choose TMUC over other colleges for my LLB Program and I must tell you that I didn't regret my decision of joining the most prestigious college in twin cities. I will always be in TMUC's debt as it has invested in me as a student. Not to forget the best faculty in the college that has helped me in every aspect, no matter if it was personnel or related to studies.

Educational guidance along with proper career counselling has really helped me in decidingabout what I should do in the future. TMUC is a gateway to any reputed university in the world. In short, the three year experience at TMUC will be one of the most important events of my life. The college will have a place in my heart, always.


Hajrah Khakwani Bsc Politics and IR

Higher education in Pakistan has always been under scrutiny. TMUC is my answer to the problem as a contemporary, practical and cultivating form of higher education that fulfils the vacant minds of the youth that cover up an estimated 60% of the total population. The faculty, the leadership and the quality of education provided at TMUC is worthy of compliments and enables the student body to tackle the ever growing market challenges. It's a warm, welcoming institution and I encourage students to be a part of TMUC's extraordinary alumni!

The main reason I chose this degree was because its globally recognized and I didn't have to leave the comfort of my home. I chose TMUC because it feels like home. TMUC is the perfect mix, since they have state of the art campus and the best faculty in the country.
