Collaborative Partnerships

Business Enterprise and Management seeks to be a community of collaborative learners. To this end, we have sought out partners in other institutions, at home and overseas, with whom this collaborative learning can be developed. As a result, we have a number of informal and formal partnerships where we can co-deliver our programmes, or welcome students into Queen Margaret University at explicit points via articulation agreements between those institutions and Queen Margaret. As a result, the learning environment of the division has been enriched by the diversity of the student experience.

We have also developed good relationship with the local Further Education Colleges so that students can participate effortlessly between qualifications and institutions within the Scottish Credit Qualification Framework (SCQF). Within Edinburgh these FE Colleges include Stevenson , Edinburgh's Telford and Jewel and Esk.

The relationships with our overseas partners have positively enhanced the learning environment at Queen Margaret via the internationalization of the curriculum. Students studying at Queen Margaret benefit from both the cross cultural diversity of students studying here in Edinburgh, but also from the cross fertilization of ideas that are exchanged with our partner institutions via the students, regular staff visits and exchanges, staff development meetings and continuing dialogue. Our current formal partnerships with international institutions include ITM, Mumbai and Bangalore in India; EASB in Singapore; and HTMi in Switzerland.
