Second in a three-part series of provocative articles by Dr Beata Fröhlich, LLM (UCL), Dean of Marbella International University Centre (MIUC), an exclusive academic partner of the University of West London.

At MIUC, we give students what they need to succeed in their chosen profession. In fact, our teaching courses and facilities are designed around it.

MIUC is a global academic institution providing a new kind of learning experience based on a career-oriented curriculum and a unique living environment.

Emphasising the interconnection of high-quality education and industry in the modern world, MIUC prides itself on dynamic undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, combining a modern approach to teaching practices with a strong emphasis on student welfare support services.

World Top Faculty: Our Strength Lies in Our People

MIUC’s highly qualified international lecturers, the vast majority of whom hold PhDs, have studied at some of the world’s top universities, including McGill University, Columbia University, Berkeley University, and University College London. Not only are they experienced academics, but they are also successful industry professionals with strong work ethics.

Our faculty is anything but only academic: we’ve designed our platform with educators who also have business experience, with backgrounds including Executive Programme Director at Brussels Airlines, Director of Business Development at Ernst & Young, Senior Manager at KPMG, and Director of Human Resources for Marriott.

This makes an enormous difference; our educators provide students with valuable career-specific insights, expertise, and skills while also delivering the highest quality academic programming.

Included in our mission is supporting every student in their pursuit of careers with great organisations that value international and cultural inclusion and who understand that in a highly connected world with fewer boundaries and more international trade and cooperation than ever.

Future employers who see the value in hiring graduates who choose to grow in a country other than their own as they build meaningful lives are turning to higher education institutions like MIUC and tapping into the best of the latest and future generations to come.

In the third and final article in this series, you will learn about the importance of our faculty, staff, and leadership in delivering inspiration with knowledge, technology with humanity, and education with purpose.
