THE Student, Times Higher Education (THE)¡¯s dynamic digital platform for those looking to study abroad, has today announced that it is collaborating with Global University Systems (GUS), the worldwide network of educational institutions, to help students achieve their goals through a more flexible study experience.
Institutions worldwide have been working at great pace to evolve and adapt to a more hybrid way of learning, which in turn offers international students a larger pool of academic choice. GUS provides a dynamic network of institutions, offering a myriad of certificates, qualifications and degree programmes, as well as career-enhancing resources complemented by proprietary technologies, to convert students¡¯ career objectives into actionable success.
The partnership will allow the 15 million+ prospective international students that visit Times Higher Education¡¯s platform every year to connect with a variety of GUS brands. Furthermore, the partnership coincides with THE Student¡¯s ambition of helping prospective students on their journey to discovering the best suited institution for them.
