Thamesbridge College is a newly established private higher education institution based in Milton Keynes, England.

Founded as a subsidiary of International Business School (IBS), Hungary, it draws on more than three decades of IBS experience in delivering UK-validated programmes across Central Europe.

Thamesbridge is currently preparing for registration with the Office for Students (OfS), reflecting its commitment to the highest standards of academic quality, governance, and student protection.

The College will offer undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in areas such as general management, events management, entrepreneurship, banking and finance, and supply chain management, with its first intake planned for September 2026. Initial cohorts will be intentionally small, allowing for a personalised learning experience and gradual, sustainable growth.

Our approach places a strong emphasis on employability – working closely with local and regional employers, embedding their insights into curriculum design, and providing flexible study options that meet the needs of both full-time and working learners.

Our mission is to empower learners through innovative, career-focused education that blends real-world skills, emerging technologies, and personal growth.

Our vision is to become the UK’s leading university for career-focused, practice-based education.

Our values guide everything we do:

• Courageous – We challenge convention with purpose, driving innovation in how and what we teach.
• Agile – We respond quickly and effectively to change, seizing opportunities in a fast-moving world.
• Student-centred – We put learners at the heart of everything we do, from teaching and assessment to support and design.
• Inclusive – We welcome diversity of background and thought, designing for access, belonging and equity.
• Practice-driven – We embed practical relevance into every aspect of teaching, learning and assessment.
