Overview of Partnership 

Goldsmiths, University of London and Pearl Academy have established a 2+1 articulation partnership designed to provide students with a clear progression from undergraduate study in India to a UK honours degree. 

Under this model, students begin with two years of study at Pearl Academy in BBA in Fashion & Lifestyle Business Management or Bachelor in Global Luxury Brand Management. They then progress into the final two years at Goldsmiths, completing either the BSc (Hons) Business Management, BSc (Hons) Marketing, or BSc (Hons) Management with Marketing.

This collaboration brings together Pearl’s strengths in creative business management with Goldsmiths business subject expertise. Graduates benefit from a strong international education pathway, combining deep regional expertise with UK‑based honours certification.
