格林威治大学(University of Greenwich)位于伦敦,建于1890年,其前身是伍尔维奇理工学院(WOOLWICH),是英国创办的第二所理工学院,建在18世纪皇家军械库的遗址附近。20世纪90年代初伍尔维奇理工学院与英国一大批综合性理工学院一起被英国政府批准升格为大学,成为90多所正规大学之一。目前,格林威治大学是英国规模最大的10所大学之一、英国获得研究收入和咨询收入最高的大学之一,也是教育部推荐的出国留学大学之一。学校拥有本科、硕士和博士等多层次的人才培养体系。并于2013年3月加入“英国大学联盟”。
学校简介
格林威治大学一面是泰晤士河,与金融区 Canary Wharf 隔岸相望,另一面就是格林威治天文台,国际子午线就从校区穿过;她拥有英国最好的建筑与园林设计专业,她的校园建筑群号称英国的凡尔赛,六个各具特色的校区宛如泰晤士河畔的明珠;中国第一批留英学生严复、林永升就是在这里学习造船与驾驶。泰晤士河,这条英国历史悠久的河流目睹了两岸文明的发展和变化,也见证了格林威治大学的成长历史。创立于1890年的格林威治大学,其前身是建造在18世纪英国皇家军械库遗址上的英国第二所工程技术学校 -- 乌威治多科技术学院。格林威治大学由乌威治理工学院开始,先后与附近的达特福德学院、艾弗里 ·希尔学院、加尼特学院和其他学院的相关科系进行合并,1992年由英国皇家教育委员会正式确认为大学。1996年,著名的自然资源研究所归并到大学,与学校的相关学科相融合,进一步提升了学校的综合研究实力。格林威治大学共有五个校区,每个校区都设有图书馆,总共四十多万册的藏书,宽敞明亮的学习环境以及1100台联网计算机为学生提供了舒适、便捷的资料查询手段,丰富的资讯和先进的设施让学校师生感受到极大的方便,吸引来自世界各地的学生在这里阅读、学习。
迈德维校区位于狄更斯故居所在的肯特郡,曾经是英国皇家海军军官训练基地,也是格林威治大学原来的主校区。
迈德维附近的中世纪城堡是一处旅游胜地,城墙、尖塔衬托着迈德维校区和当地小镇的悠久历史.
到迈德维,当然也不能错过市集(Gillingham High Street)。小小市集容纳了大约60来个摊位,除了售卖各种各样的小玩意、衣服等,还有不少精制手工品。
格林威治大学校内共有17座具有历史意义的建筑,或庄重,或典雅,素有现代英国凡尔赛的美称。 这美丽的校园吸引了许多年轻学子来这里求学,平时可以躺在草地上看书,到学校后面的皇家天文台游览,周末同学们结伴到野外自助烧烤,丰富的课余活动让他们的大学生活多姿多彩。
置身于壮观的建筑群中,建筑和园林专业的学生在潜移默化中激发着创作的灵感,得天独厚的条件造就了英国大学里最好的建筑和园林专业。这个专业所设的课程连续多年被英国高校质量认证机构授予优秀课程。
正像英国建筑周报所称:“这里的师生享有在世界一流学校学习、工作的特权。”
如今的格林威治大学拥有17000多名在校生,这些学生来自世界100多个国家,有着各自不同的专业和文化背景,在这里进行人文社会科学、会计学、商业管理、建筑、土木工程、房地产管理、工程学、计算机科学等专业的学习、研究,其中的计算与数学学院的防火工程小组闻名于世.
地理位置
格林威治大学 (Greenwich) -- Greenwich University在伦敦和肯特有五个主要的校园:马太姆格林威治校园(新指定的皇家海军学校)、乌威治校园和艾维利希尔校园坐落在伦敦东南部,达福校园和默威校园坐落在肯特西北部。从这里前往伦敦、乡间、海滨和海峡隧道都十分方便。
伦敦是英国的首都,最大海港和首要的工业城市,也是全国政治、经济、文化与交通的中心,还是世界金融中心之一,世界十大都市之一。伦敦交通发达,古迹繁多,有“英国旅游中心”之称。伦敦以它悠久的历史、斑斓的色彩、雄伟的风姿屹立于世界名城之林。而肯特是英格兰的一个郡,位于伦敦东南,其郡府是梅德斯通。肯特与东萨塞克斯、萨里和伦敦相邻,与萨塞克斯它仅隔泰晤士河口。
学校声誉
格林威治大学充满朝气,在英国国内和国际上发展迅速。它既具有英国老牌大学的外观和品味,又具有现代化大学的风格和符合社会需要的发展方向,已被广泛地认为在发展应用性专业方面在英国大学中处于领先地位,在2000年、2002年和2007年三次被授予英国女王奖章。
校园环境
古色古香的格林威治大学独具风情,向来颇受好莱坞古装奇幻题材大片的青睐,曾多次被好莱坞导演相中。例如《雷神托尔2》,《加勒比海盗4》,《黑暗骑士的崛起》,《木乃伊》、《国家宝藏》、《奇异恩典》、《黄金罗盘》及《女王》等片都曾在此取景。

大学概况University Profile
Greenwich’s new Stockwell Street development has just opened as the centrepiece of a £150m investment programme. The university’s own specialists in architecture have contributed to a building dedicated to research and teaching that will include the UK’s largest landscape roofs.
Students will also benefit from a large architecture studio, a model-making workshop, TV and sound studios. Students from across the campus will use the building’s library - which is double the size of the current one, with 370 study spaces - as well as its lecture theatres, seminar rooms and other facilities.
The high-quality digital TV and sound studios will be a major fillip to the university’s work in digital media and creative design. The investment programme includes a new hall of residence nearby, also opening this year, which will provide 358 ensuite rooms for students, as well as a café and gym for residents.
The university already had what it rightly regards as “one of the grandest university settings in the world”. The former Royal Naval College buildings, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, are now part of a World Heritage Site. Wren’s baroque masterpiece is being used, with the former Dreadnought Hospital, to teach over half the university’s students, covering humanities, law, business, maths, computing and – appropriately – maritime studies.
There is also a prize-winning Medway campus, centred on the former Chatham naval base, which has been developed in partnership with Kent and Canterbury Christ Church universities. Greenwich put £20m into the campus, which houses the schools of pharmacy, science and engineering, the Natural Resources Institute, nursing and some business courses.
A joint learning resources centre serves the Chatham Maritime campus and the University of Kent’s neighbouring premises. The campus has exceeded its original target of 6,000 students and now has improved teaching facilities and expanded student services.
Other schools are situated at Avery Hill, a Victorian mansion on the outskirts of southeast London, which boasts a £14m sports and teaching centre with a café, sports hall and 220-seat lecture theatre. There are also laboratories for health courses that replicate NHS wards. The campus contains a student village of 1,300 rooms, alongside teaching accommodation for the social sciences.
The large education faculty is one of the few to offer both primary and secondary teacher training courses. Greenwich is also the only university in the country to have an on-campus strategic relationship with a recruitment firm. It has invested more than £1m in the service, launched in 2013, which aims to place final-year students or recent graduates in full-time, graduate-level jobs which are suited to their skills, as well as finding them high-quality internships and other opportunities along the way. The consultants also provide one-to-one mentoring and advice and coaching sessions such as CV workshops.
Greenwich has set itself some challenging targets: among them are to reach the top 50 in the UK and the top ten in London within five years. Given the targets effectively amount to the same thing, achieving either will be tough from the university’s present position in our rankings. The undergraduate intake was up by 800 in 2013, compensating for an even larger fall when the fees went up in the previous year.
The university achieved good results in the last Research Assessment Exercise, which showed a quarter of the work reaching world-leading or internationally excellent levels. A fifth of the university’s income is from research and consultancy – the largest proportion at any former polytechnic – and it is planned that the total should reach £21m. Greenwich is undertaking an ambitious programme of investment in research by increasing the proportion of research-active staff to 75%.
One in five of the 26,000 students is a postgraduate. Thirteen associated colleges in Kent and London teach the university’s courses, while strong links with institutions in Europe and further afield provide a steady flow of overseas students, as well as exchange opportunities for those at Greenwich.
The 5,000 students from outside the European Union put the university among the top six international recruiters. The university attracts more students than any other UK institution from India and large numbers from Bangladesh, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Mauritius and Nigeria.
A commitment to extending access is reflected in a high proportion of mature students. More than half of the undergraduates come from working-class homes – the biggest proportion of any university. The dropout rate of close to one in seven is about what is expected for a university with the course and student profile of Greenwich.
The university is in the top six in the People and Planet Green League of universities’ environmental performance: the new hall of residence will be powered by biomass and has green roofs on each of its three blocks, along with other sustainable features.
