Welcome to New College Durham University Centre situated in the heart of Durham.
When you look around our campus, I’m sure you will agree that we have some of the best teaching and learning facilities in the region. The resources and accommodation effectively support a high-quality student experience. It is a fantastic place for work, study and to get to know other people. The University Centre offers a range of higher level technical and professional qualifications to individuals and employers across the region.
Our aim is to ensure you make the most of your time here and that at the end of your course you leave with the qualifications you need to pursue your chosen career or go on to higher level study. Hundreds of students successfully graduate each year, and we will do everything we can to ensure that you do the same.
As well as following your chosen course, you can also take part in a wide range of additional learning opportunities to enhance your learning. The College works closely with organisations such as Business Durham, NetPark and Durham City Incubator (DCI) providing opportunities to develop knowledge and skills in innovation, enterprise, and entrepreneurship. There are also opportunities to engage with research and develop your international experience.
New College Durham also has an active Student’s Union. The Students’ Union is your voice in the College, helping us to make sure that students’ views are heard and taken into account at all levels of College Management. Playing an active part in the Students’ Union and supporting its activities is one way to get more out of your time here.
Whatever your course and no matter how long you spend with us, I am sure you will enjoy your time
here at New College Durham.
Have a great year!
Andrew Broadbent,
Principal & Chief Executive
