Polytechnic of North London

The Polytechnic of North London was the result of a merger of the Northern and North Western Polytechnics in 1971. Its degrees were awarded by the Council for National Academic Awards (CNAA). In 1992, the Polytechnic gained University status (by the Further and Higher Education Act of the same year) and with that the power to award its own degrees and diplomas. In 2002, the University of North London merged with London Guildhall University to form the institution as it is known today, London Metropolitan University.
