Middlesex University, Public university in Hendon, United Kingdom.
Middlesex University is a public university in Hendon, north London, whose campus spreads across several buildings with lecture halls, libraries and communal spaces. Facilities include technical workshops, media studios and health laboratories for hands-on training in different disciplines.
The institution began in 1878 as St Katherine's College in Tottenham, where it trained future teachers. It gained full university status in 1992 and later moved its main base to Hendon.
The name refers to the historic county of Middlesex, which now forms part of Greater London. Over forty percent of students come from households where no one attended university before, making the campus a place of social opening.
The site is accessible via Hendon Central station on the Northern Line, reached in roughly 30 minutes from central London. The campus has cafeterias, a bookshop and student residences close to academic buildings.
The university maintains branches in Dubai and Mauritius, allowing students on certain programmes to switch between the three locations during their studies. This option lets them complete courses on different continents and gain international experience.
