About UCLan Cyprus (University of Central Lancashire Cyprus)
UCLan Cyprus opened in 2012 as the Cyprus campus of the University of Central Lancashire, a large public university based in Preston, England. It was the first British university to set up a campus on the island. Students follow UK-designed courses taught in English and graduate with a dual award: one degree certificate from UCLan in the UK and one from UCLan Cyprus, which is licensed as a private university in the Republic of Cyprus.
The campus is smaller and more personal than a typical UK university, with four schools: Business and Law; Computing, Engineering and Mathematics; Health and Wellbeing; and Arts, Media and Communication. Notable facilities include an electronic engineering lab, psychology labs with a child observation suite, a sport science lab and the first moot courtroom at a Cypriot university. The BSc Computing degree is accredited by the British Computer Society.
