History

The history of Middlesex University began in the late 1880s, when two educational institutions opened their doors in north London - St Katherine's College and the Hornsey School of Arts and Crafts. Both would become part of Middlesex Polytechnic, which was founded in 1973. Middlesex was awarded the title 'University' - by Royal Assent - in 1992. The granting of Royal Assent is the formal method by which a constitutional monarch completes the legislative process of Lawmaking by formally assenting to an

The institution was created in 1973 when Enfield College of Technology, Hendon College of Technology and Hornsey College of Art, joined to create Middlesex Polytechnic. Hornsey College of Art is a former college centred in Crouch End, London, now part of Middlesex University. The College of All Saints (St Katherine's College, founded 1878, uniting with Berridge House in 1964 to form All Saints) and Trent Park College joined in 1978 and in 1992 it became Middlesex University. Trent Park is a Country park, formerly the grounds of a mansion house which currently forms the Trent Park campus of Middlesex University in the north of London In 2005, Middlesex University opened an overseas campus in Dubai, offering undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in Business, Computing Science, Media Studies and Psychology. Dubai (in دبيّ,) is one of the seven emirates and most populous city of the United Arab Emirates (UAE

Former campuses

Tottenham

The campus was closed in Summer 2005, and its programmes of study have been moved to the university's other campuses. The Tottenham campus started life as St Katharine's College, one of the first British teacher training colleges in 1878, later to become the College of All Saints - a Church of England college of higher education and a constituent college of the Institute of Education, University of London, for whose degrees it taught. The name change was a result of the 1964 union of St Katharine's with Berridge House, Hampstead, on the Tottenham site. The college expanded in the 1960s, although much of the campus retained its Victorian architecture. After the union with Middlesex Polytechnic, the campus was home to humanities and cultural studies, business studies, law, sociology and women's studies, all of which have been moved to other campuses. The College of All Saints itself continues to this day in the All Saints Educational Trust.

Bounds Green

Bounds Green campus, home to the Engineering and Information Technology schools was sold to a residential developer in December 2003. It was used extensively for location shooting for the 1989 film, Wilt. Wilt is a movie adaptation by LWT of the Tom Sharpe novel of the same name, released in 1989

Schools of Middlesex University

Middlesex University is divided into four Schools:

Students

Middlesex University has a very diverse student body, around 22,000 strong, many of whom are mature students. Professor John Grahl is a distinguished academic and professor of Human Resources Management at Middlesex University. Around 5,000 students are from overseas, coming from more than 100 countries (2004). The application/places ratio is 6. 1:1 (2002). The University also has student exchange links with 100 colleges and universities around the world.

Students' Union

As of 2005, Middlesex University Students' Union (MUSU[2]) is undergoing a period of large-scale change. Academic year 2004-05 saw the university management force MUSU, against the wishes and votes of MUSU members, to give up its commercial areas, i. e. shops, bars, cafeterias and entertainments. These have now been taken over by a company called Scolarest, a major player in catering facilities to UK educational institutions, who already handle catering facilities for the university proper. This situation has arisen due to a dispute over a £250,000 debt owed by MUSU to the university.

MUSU has four sabbatical officers, each with a specific portfolio, and who also represent the students on their base campus. MUSU runs a number of student lead entertainment and communication activities under the name of MUD (Middlesex University Direct). This includes a radio station (MUD Radio) and a student magazine (MUD Magazine), which is published six times a year and is available to students for free.

In 1981 Union president Nick Harvey joined protests outside Rochester Row police station after six Irish students were detained without charge under the Prevention of Terrorism Act. Nicholas James "Nick" Harvey is a British Politician. That year student John Kennedy stood in the Crosby by-election to high-light the case of seven students suspended from the Polytechnic after an occupation demanding nursery facilities. election leaflet
