More on UHI Millennium Institute
Description from Wikipedia:
The UHI Millennium Institute (Scottish Gaelic:Institiùd OGE nam Mìle Bliadhna) is a federation of 15 colleges and research institutions in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland delivering higher education. It is incorporated as a charity and limited company and its Executive Office is in the city of Inverness, capital of the Scottish Highlands.
In April 2001 the Scottish Parliament awarded UHI Higher Education Institute status, and it now provides university level courses. UHI degrees are authenticated by the Open University Validation Service, the University of Strathclyde and the University of Aberdeen; Higher National Certificate and Higher National Diploma courses are awarded by the Scottish Qualifications Authority. University status in the UK is awarded by the Privy Council and has not yet been granted to the UHI.
UHI has a number of distinctive undergraduate, Masters and research programmes. All use the Highlands and Islands as the starting point to look to the wider world and most can be studied at a range of locations across the area.
Through its Faculty of Health, UHI has strong links with the new Centre for Health Sciences located behind Raigmore Hospital. This is being funded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise, the Scottish Executive and Johnson and Johnson. Phase I of this opened in early 2007, phase II is under construction and phase III has been funded. The University of Stirling is moving its operations from Raigmore Hospital to the CHS.
