¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· Leicester (¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ·) is to offer a range of Business courses to students in Kazakhstan through a new international partnership.
¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· has partnered with international study provider EdPeritus to offer a range of courses from ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ·’s Faculty of Business and Law including Accounting and Finance, Business and Marketing, and Law, among others, located on a campus in Esentai City, Almaty.
Teaching is set to start in September this year.

Simon Bradbury, Pro Vice-Chancellor International at ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ·, said the new partnership showed the strength and reputation of ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ·’s courses in Business and Law worldwide.
He said: “The Kazakh government is very keen to be able to offer ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· qualifications in Kazakhstan and this is because of our strong reputation internationally.
“For us, it means the opportunity of developing another strong international partnership, extending the global network ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· has and being able to share our teaching and extend the opportunities we offer our students to a new audience.”
The campus in Almaty, which will be managed by EdPeritus, will also offer students a medical centre, food outlets, indoor fitness centre and outdoor sports area. ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· will oversee the delivery of academic programmes and ensure a quality student experience. Students will also have the opportunity to study on ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ·'s Leicester campus for one year.
The offer is part of ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ·’s TransNational Education (TNE) strategy, which includes working in collaboration with overseas partners to offer ¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· programmes to students around the world.
Final academic approval is due to take place on Wednesday 14 July.
