University of Gloucestershire - City

The University of Gloucestershire offers a wide range of degrees, courses and apprenticeships at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Typically, students learn theory from industry experts and put their learning into practice in course work, real-world projects, placements and field trips. The school has a 150-year tradition of education dating back to 1847​. There are over 100 academic courses to choose from and approximately 10,000 students studying at the three campuses in Gloucestershire.

The City campus building will be brought back to life as a vibrant campus in the heart of the city – a modern centre for teaching, learning and community partnerships where graduates that will be trained there will go into jobs that are crucial to the future.
