The University of Sunderland is a global institution. We offer life-changing opportunities to thousands of students across the world, in our partner colleges and in our four main sites at Sunderland, London and Hong Kong. We are research active, with ten areas of 'world leading’ research - real-world research that is taught in our lecture halls and labs. 

As stated in our Strategic Plan 2016 – 2021, the University of Sunderland is proud to be an anchor institution and ‘future shaper’ for the North East region.  The University has grown and developed over recent years, not only through the ethos of shared institutional values and ambitions, but also by embracing four key beliefs which influence our thinking and behaviour. 

As an institution we are acutely aware of our social responsibilities and the impact of these responsibilities on employees, customers, partners and the environment.  We aim to make a difference and to create and nurture an inclusive environment in which we all can flourish.  We want people to join us who share these ambitions and values.

At Sunderland we put our students at the heart of everything that we do, so whether you are an academic who strives for the highest quality in academic delivery and research, or an outstanding professional who delivers excellence through our professional services, we are all contributing to an excellent student experience.

We are all contributing to our future Life Changers, Knowledge Creators, Tomorrow Makers, Boundary Breakers, Learning Engagers and Future Shapers.
