Liverpool John Moores University is a thriving, vibrant university located at the heart of one of the most exciting cities in the UK. Our three large campuses ensure that no matter where you go in Liverpool, you are never far away from an LJMU building.
LJMU is proud to be a modern university, with learning and the advancement of our students at the heart of all our activity. Our ethos is dream, plan, achieve and we aim to nurture the dreams of every single student. Our approach is holistic in nature - we provide stimulating and challenging programmes of study that are informed by scholarship and research, and that engender a spirit of academic enquiry; and we also provide an environment conducive to the personal development of our students - for example, through our Foundation for Citizenship we encourage students to become thoughtful, ethical people. We understand the importance of real-world experience and help students to gain practical experience through work placements. We also are aware that university isn't all about working and studying so we encourge students to socialise with their peers in a variety of ways - for example, in conjunction with Liverpool Students' Union we provide an wide range of sporting and recreational opportunities for our students and staff
