The University of Sunderland, UK, a globally recognised public university with a strong reputation for academic excellence, is proud to offer its undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes in Nigeria, delivered through London Academy Business School (LABS) — a trusted delivery partner with campuses in FCT Abuja and Lagos State.
This Transnational Education (TNE) partnership provides students across Nigeria with the opportunity to earn internationally respected UK degrees without the need to travel abroad — making world-class education more accessible, affordable, and flexible.
Every year, over 2 million Nigerians apply for university admission, but only around 700,000 secure a place. This leaves 1.3 million students searching for meaningful alternatives. To help bridge this gap, the University of Sunderland now offers two admission intakes per year in Nigeria — expanding access to high-quality education for those who may have missed out.
This initiative also offers a practical solution to the rising JAPA syndrome — helping retain young talent within Nigeria by delivering stable, globally relevant education locally, in an environment students understand and feel connected to.
LABS has received full approval from the Federal Ministry of Education to deliver foundation and pre-degree programmes designed to prepare students for university-level study.
In partnership with the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), LABS also offers job-ready graduate training focused on developing practical skills that meet the needs of today’s employers — equipping graduates to thrive in the workforce and contribute meaningfully to the economy.
LABS is accredited to offer pre-degree, undergraduate degree and postgraduate degree, at BA (Hons) Business Management, BA (Hons) Business and Marketing Management, BSc (Hons) Computer Science, BSc (Hons) Network Systems Engineering Top-Up. MSc and MBA in Business and Finance. Professional courses in Accountancy, Information Technology, Tourism, Law and Health and Social Care. International Foundation and A Levels.
