London School of Business and Finance
London, City of - United Kingdom
Overview
Founded in 2003, our success is built on going further than academic achievement – we prepare you for career success. That’s why we are committed to developing and delivering industry-focused programmes and investing in your future.
Innovation in business education
With exponential growth over the last 10 years and a truly international student body, LSBF is now one of very few private higher education institutions to have won the Queen's Awards for Enterprise, the UK's highest and most prestigious business accolade.
Conferred by HM Queen Elizabeth II, on the advice of the Prime Minister, the awards recognise organisations with outstanding performance in international trade, innovation and sustainable development.
More ways to study, more ways to grow
We now have six campuses across the UK, Asia and North America – backed by an award-winning online learning platform, powered by InterActive.
Through our state-of-the-art facilities we run undergraduate, postgraduate and professional courses with over 350 specialist study pathways. These are matched with dedicated careers services that help you achieve real success when you graduate.
Diversity as standard
With students from over 150 countries studying with us, every campus, course and classroom also offers a truly global, diverse and enriching experience. LSBF is the perfect place to gain a truly international experience, preparing you for today’s global marketplace.
Academic partners
We offer courses delivered and awarded by Grenoble Graduate School of Business (GGSB) – which is triple accredited by AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB, and in the top 1% of elite business schools.
Our corporate network
Keeping our courses up-to-date with the requirements of leading organisations is a constant practice, not an option. As well as programmes that incorporate work experience with top employers, we have formed strong relationships with successful businesses in the UK and beyond.
Bringing everything together
Through our highly experienced faculty, corporate partners, tailored career services and global reach, we will prepare you for leadership, excellence and success in the world of business.
Excellence
From day one, our focus has been on excellence. Our efforts to deliver the best student experience, first class education and exclusive career support are what make LSBF a unique institution.
In December 2012, a report published by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) gave LSBF the highest accolade – a confidence judgement on its academic standards and on the awards offered at the school.
