University of Ulster
The University of Ulster has a large virtual campus operation called Campus One.
Campus One is the University of Ulster's virtual campus. It currently provides distance learning programmes for more than 10,000 students, including over 1,500 fully online postgraduate level students.
Its web site is http://campusone.ulster.ac.uk.
The main University web site is http://www.ulster.ac.uk. On this one can find that the university had 24,654 students in 2005-06 of which 1,112 were Distance Learning Students. Thus 4.5% of all students are distance learning students and so the university comfortably passed the threshold of being a "major e-learning initiative" - and numbers have clearly grown since then.
At around 24,000 students it is medium-sized in UK terms.
The University employs over 3500 staff, has an annual turnover in excess of £120 million and has embarked on a development programme of £200 million over the next 10 years.
