Queen's Campus is a site owned by the University of Durham located in Thornaby-on-Tees in the borough of Stockton-on-Tees, now home to the Durham University International Study Centre.
It was founded in 1992 as University College, Stockton (UCS), a joint venture with the University of Teesside. Teesside withdrew from the project in 1998, and the campus was renamed University of Durham, Stockton Campus (UDSC). In 2001 it was divided into two colleges, John Snow College and Stephenson College, and in 2002 renamed Queen's Campus to celebrate the golden jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II.
In 2016, the university announced that it would be moving all colleges and departments from the campus to Durham City beginning in 2017, and repurposing the campus as a new International Study Centre to prepare overseas students to study at Durham, run by Study Group. This was completed in 2019.
