The innovative distance learning university - Anglia Ruskin

In establishing our reputation as a leading distance learning university, Anglia Ruskin’s course designers have drawn on their extensive experience of providing top-quality higher education to students from a range of commercial and social backgrounds.

Our innovative approach to distance learning is exemplified in our impressive virtual learning environment (VLE), which harnesses the vast power of the Internet to provide an online educational experience which is second to none. In many ways, it’s learning made easy.

When it comes to university distance learning, nowhere else comes close

Whatever you require of a distance learning university, the breadth and depth of our higher education offering means we are confident of offering an online degree course that delivers the skills and knowledge that you need - in a format that allows you to fit your studies around your professional and family life.

The secret of the success of our distance learning degrees lies in their flexibility. You decide where, when and how to study.  At home, in your workplace, in your local library, at dawn, during your lunch break, in the evening or at night, at the weekend, full-time or part-time - the choice is yours.

Moreover, we are now offering flexible start dates for many of our courses, allowing you to begin your quest for further qualifications - not only in the autumn of each year, but also in January. Some courses, such as our international business degrees, also offer start dates at regular intervals throughout the year.

Much more than just a distance learning university

In addition to being a leading distance learning university, Anglia Ruskin offers a wide range of other higher education options - including full and part-time courses at our campuses in Cambridge and Chelmsford, and a range of work-based learning and training programmes.

To ensure that we deliver relevant, useful courses that will enhance not only your education but also your employment prospects, we partner with other educational establishments whose services and courses complement our own.

Currently, our partners in education include:
