Falmouth University About Us We have a history of more than a century of creativity and design. Beginning in 1902 as Falmouth School of Art, our institution now boasts a global reputation and courses that represent the breadth of the Creative Industries, one of the fastest growing employment sectors in the UK. Falmouth is looking to the future, working at the cutting-edge of innovation; where technology, creativity and invention bring ideas to life. Today, our vibrant and inclusive community is home to more than 5,000 students from all over the world. Our students study on two campuses offering worldclass facilities that rival any professional environment. They’re dynamic places where people collaborate across disciplines and departments to push boundaries and create work that makes an impact. We do things for real at Falmouth, so our students learn from experienced professionals with great connections. Not only that, our students get hands-on industry experience while they study, getting ready for life after graduation.

We know that the student experience is about more than a great education. So, our Students’ Union offers more than 150 clubs, societies and opportunities to get involved with volunteering. Not only that, we’re in an incredible location that offers festivals, music, theatre, art, culture, sport and fantastic food, right on the doorstep. Of course, there aren’t many universities that have a campus only a five-minute walk from the beach. And further afield, there’s the sort of natural environment that has been inspiring creatives and inventors for generations.
