a British university providing degree courses that students can take at home. It started in 1969 and its main office is in ↑Milton Keynes.

Students study at home and send their work to their tutors. Many go to monthly tutorials at study centres in a regional centre near their home town, and they may also attend summer schools. Most students take ↑part-time degree courses lasting four or five years, though there is no time limit. Postgraduate and professional courses are also offered.
