The international recruitment landscape continues to evolve, and universities need effective ways to connect with students across diverse markets. At Oxford International Digital Institute (OIDI), we’ve been developing and expanding our Global Hub Network to strengthen regional engagement and provide high-quality, scalable solutions for international education.
What Are Global Hubs?
Our Global Hubs operate in partnership with trusted institutions worldwide, delivering programmes such as the International Foundation Programme, Pre-Master’s Programme, and Pre-Sessional English through a blended learning model. These hubs are in-country centres, offering students local support and face-to-face teaching alongside OIDI’s digital platform.
- For example, at our hub in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, students study at Nogoon Jade International Academy while following the OIDI curriculum and receiving specialist tutor support.
- Through these hubs, students can progress to over 30 universities and more than 300 degree options via our UK partner centers.
Current hub locations include the UK, MENA, Nigeria, East Asia, and Southeast Asia. To explore all locations, visit our Global Presence Tool (filter by OI Global Hubs).
Why This Matters
The expansion of our Global Hub Network offers universities:
- Broader Reach in Key Regions
Hubs in countries such as China, Nigeria, Cameroon, and Pakistan help open recruitment pipelines in emerging markets.
- Consistent Academic Standards
All hubs follow centrally managed curricula and quality assurance processes, ensuring academic comparability across locations.
- Enhanced Student Experience
Combining face-to-face tutorials with guided digital learning provides structure, flexibility, and local pastoral support.
