The University College has been offering specialist education for over a century and enjoys a strong reputation both nationally and internationally for providing the creative industries with practitioners of the future. We offer a range of courses including Preparation for Higher Education, Higher Education, Postgraduate study and part time short courses. All 3000 students are based within one attractive campus which is a creative community where both staff and students share a commitment to the disciplines of art, design, media and performance.

Our facilities include purpose-built studios and extensive modern workshops with relevant tools and equipment to allow experimentation and learning of industry skills. Importantly, we offer a specialist environment which reflects the way in which individuals and communities work together in the creative industries and where we offer students the professional skills, knowledge and confidence to realise their ambitions and to succeed in their chosen career.

If you are considering any of our courses, we would encourage you to visit us at one of our regular Open Days which are organised to show you what we have to offer and to answer any questions you may have. You will be able to find out more about the course you are interested in, meet staff and students, tour the campus, view our specialist facilities and discover why the University College is so special.
