The Thames Experience is a dynamic combination of curricular, co-curricular, and extra-curricular programs designed to challenge students, unlock their potential, and empower them to become positive change-makers in society. Thames offers personalized, international, and practical experiences enriched by an entrepreneurial spirit that reflects the best of human values.

Personalized Learning
Thames recognizes that every student is unique, with individual strengths, challenges, and aspirations. Upon entry, students establish a baseline to track their growth throughout their academic journey. Mentoring and coaching play a key role in helping students set meaningful and attainable goals, develop appropriate strategies, and monitor their progress.

Students have the flexibility to tailor their academic pathways, choosing their degree, major, concentration, electives, and even country destinations, with the ability to shift their plans as their goals evolve. Beyond academics, Thames fosters holistic development by complementing rigorous coursework with co-curricular and extra-curricular programs that strengthen leadership skills, an entrepreneurial mindset, and social responsibility. With mentor guidance, students actively shape their learning experiences to align with their personal and professional aspirations.

Global Exposure
In today’s interconnected world, international experience is a key advantage. Thames students can broaden their perspectives through summer terms in Japan, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States, France, or Spain, as well as through international study tours and campus visits tailored to their goals and preferences. The institution’s diverse student body further enhances global learning, with 25% of students coming from international backgrounds.
Students may also take summer courses at Thames’ prestigious partner universities, including:

• Temple University (Japan Campus)
• Rennes School of Business (France)
• Southern Cross University (Australia)
• Collarts (Australia)
• University of Northampton (UK)
• University of Limerick (Ireland)

Subjects completed abroad contribute to degree requirements at Thames, ensuring a seamless academic transition. The institution also offers short-term international study and campus tours lasting one to two weeks, immersing students in diverse cultures, business practices, and academic environments.

Practical Learning
Thames emphasizes the importance of action-oriented learning. All undergraduate courses are designed with applied problem-solving and project-based learning methodologies that integrate technology, equipping students with the skills needed to excel in the modern workforce.

Applied Problem-Solving
Students are trained to identify real-world challenges, assess their context, and formulate solutions by applying and adapting relevant theories and concepts. Courses and assessments are intentionally structured to develop critical and creative thinking skills.

Project-Based Learning
Instead of relying on traditional rote-based testing, Thames evaluates students through project-based learning. Assessments are designed collaboratively between students and instructors, aligning with students’ interests and professional goals. This hands-on approach ensures a deeper, more meaningful learning experience.

Technology-Enhanced Education
Recognizing the essential role of technology in the 21st-century workplace, Thames integrates digital tools into the learning experience.
The institution utilizes a dedicated Learning Management System (LMS), Thames X, which houses all course materials, projects, and assessments. This platform enables students to submit work, receive feedback, and engage in asynchronous learning while maintaining active interactions with peers and instructors. Additionally, program heads and the Dean can monitor student performance and provide timely interventions through mentorship and counseling.

Thames also offers internationally recognized and certified technology-related courses through ICDL®, covering fields such as Creative Technologies, Data Analytics, and Cybersecurity, ensuring that graduates are equipped with cutting-edge digital competencies.
Through its comprehensive and dynamic approach, the Thames Experience prepares students to navigate and lead in an ever-evolving world.
