University of Cumbria, UK

The University of Cumbria was formed in 2007 and has campuses in Carlisle, Lancaster and Ambleside, all in the north-west of England around the scenic Lake District. The University also has specialist teacher-education centre in London, which is rated as one of the UK’s best by Ofsted.

The University of Cumbria prides itself on a ‘small and friendly’ image, with little over 13,000 students spread across its six campuses. As it was formed from several existing institutions, Cumbria has varied specialist faculties, ranging from agriculture and forestry to teacher training and English. The University of Cumbria also has a close relationship with the local creative arts community, which in turn gives art, design and media programmes a boost.

Services for International Students
