Flags of the West Indies

The University of Central Lancashire welcomes students from the West Indies.

We have a strong partnership with West Indies as in 2012, the School of Forensics entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the University of West Indies, which ran until 2014. Not only this, but in 2015 our Institute for Black Atlantic Research proudly hosted a symposium to celebrate the launch of Caryl Phillips new novel 'The Lost Child', a prequel to Emily Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights'.
