Our seniour International Officers are Caroline Feeley and Felicity Lawrence and our International Officers are Cleo Bowen, Shahid Hussain, and Julie Zhu.

Nichole Bruce supports our link with the University of Gondar in Ethiopia.

The Study Abroad team is Caroline Feeley, Julie Leverett, Amy Persse, and Lucy Stubbs.

In many countries we also work with agents who can offer advice and help you with your application to the University of Leicester.

Within the International Office, we all have our own special areas of responsibility and expertise, but we also work as a team, so that even when some staff are away from the office, your enquiries will be dealt with promptly.
