About Us

NTU Global is responsible for driving forward NTU’s international reputation and embedding internationalisation across the University in line with the Connecting Globally core principle of our strategy, University, reimagined. This includes oversight and development of international partnerships, student and staff mobility, summer schools, internationalisation at home and the global student experience.

As a university, we believe today’s global challenges can be overcome by working in collaboration with our partners worldwide. From economic and political instabilities to climate change, international collaboration is key to our mission as a truly global university. We are not restricted by borders or boundaries and work in partnership to deepen and share our insights and understanding of the world for the benefit of society and our planet.

Our inclusive global community of students and staff is drawn from over 160 different countries. Our award-winning student support team and Global Lounges promote intercultural understanding and friendships, as well as develop our students’ global skills and networks. It’s one of the many reasons we were named ‘Modern University of the Year 2023’ by The Times and The Sunday Times and the ‘Best University in the UK for International Students’ at the WhatUni Student Choice Awards 2022.

We are a passionate, committed and high-performing team with an inclusive global outlook that supports each other and has fun. If you’re a great communicator, enjoy being part of a diverse team, and would like to contribute to the internationalisation of one of the UK’s largest and most ambitious universities, we’d love to hear from you.

At NTU, we continue to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports and celebrates the diverse voices and experiences of our students and colleagues. We welcome the unique contributions that you can bring and we encourage people from underrepresented communities and backgrounds to apply to join our team.
