Digitally led and focused on graduate employability, the university provides high-quality undergraduate and postgraduate education across a wide range of subject areas including computing, design, law, and business, engineering and healthcare. What’s more, if Staffordshire’s current portfolio isn’t already diverse enough, new and industry-relevant courses are being launched every year, such as their pioneering Esports undergraduate course - the first of its kind in the UK, or their brand new range of pathway courses, where you have the choice to tailor your own degree while studying.
Staffordshire pride themselves on being The Connected University, connecting you with staff, business and career opportunities. As a result of their commitment to constant improvement, they have been shortlisted for University of the Year in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2020 and are now recognised as a Top 40 UK University in the Guardian league tables 2020. Staffordshire’s academic staff are constantly contributing to world leading research too, which has led to us breaking into the top 1000 institutions in the World University Rankings 2019.
Graduate employability is at the forefront of their objectives. As a result, all courses provide the opportunity for relevant work-placement, and as a student, you can benefit from a vast network of professional connections from academic staff and alumni alike.
This is the main campus of Staffordshire University, and primarily offers law, business, sciences, applied computing, engineering, arts, design, journalism and media production courses. The Stoke campus features its own student nightclub called the "LRV" short for the Leek Road Venue. This nightclub hosts a variety of student nights on various days of the week but its main open nights are on a Wednesday and Friday. A public film theatre is situated on the side of the Flaxman building on College Road, and shows mainstream and independent films on a regular basis to an audience of up to 180 people, as well as being used for large lectures. In 2006, a new TV studio facility was opened by former BBC Director General Greg Dyke in the Arts, Media and Design faculty building on College Road, Stoke. Here are some amenities near our campus.
