The BCUIC pathways, offered at both undergraduate and postgraduate level, are purpose built to aid students in developing their learning potential and are focussed on aiding students to graduate successfully from their chosen Birmingham City University degree.
The launch was attended by representatives from the University and Navitas, along with dignitaries from the City and a number of current BCUIC students.
Birmingham City University Vice-Chancellor Professor Cliff Allan said: "This month we will be welcoming 100 students from the College to the University, representing a huge step forward in the realisation of our International Strategy.”
Rod Jones, Navitas Group CEO, added: “We have had a great first year working with Birmingham City University and look forward to our relationship flourishing over the coming years.”
