YORKSHIRE’S NEW


CAMPUS BY THE SEA


In 2014, a report by HEFCE (Higher Education Funding Council for England) named some parts of the country as ‘HE cold spots’ – areas where, one way or another, higher level skills required by industry are not being covered by available HE provision. The report, not for the first time, named North Yorkshire as one such cold spot.


UNIVERSITY OF THE YEAR


Coventry University, the current Times Higher Education Awards ‘University of the Year’ and Good University Guide’s ‘Modern University of the Year’ 2014, 2015 and 2016, then moved to help address this imbalance, opening the Scarborough Campus in 2015, initially teaching in iconic Scarborough locations.


PURPOSE BUILT STATE-OF-THE-ART CAMPUS From September 2016 teaching begins in a brand new, purpose built state-of-the-art campus at Weaponness, wherein all course areas offered are linked to careers, in subjects where there is evidence of a demand for graduates in the region.


INDUSTRY INPUT


Wherever it is possible, input has been sought from major industry institutions and local business to help inform the curriculum, to best ensure relevance.


Course areas on offer include Law, Business, Early Years, Accounting, Engineering, IT, Counselling and Biological & Chemical Sciences. The BSc (Hons) Combined Engineering degree, launching in 2016, includes a 30-credit module on Renewable Energy Engineering.
