Higher Education
Higher education can be the gateway to inspirational and interesting careers and progression, with graduates rewarded with income levels and advancement opportunities that can lead to higher job satisfaction and a stimulating career pathway.
The University Centres at DN Colleges Group offer a range of higher education options, delivered locally and in close collaboration with our university partners: the University of Hull, the University of Lincoln, the University of Huddersfield, Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Cumbria.
With over 2,000 higher education students, we continually invest in our University Centres, extending our university presence for our communities with qualifications centred around the needs of our students.
Our higher education portfolio offers undergraduate, postgraduate and professional courses. As well as Bachelor’s degrees and foundation degrees, these include higher level and degree apprenticeships, initial teacher education and Higher National programmes (HNC & HND). Courses are either validated by one of our university partners or awarded by Pearson, the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) or the Chartered Management Institute (CMI).
From business and management, education, engineering and technology to the arts and creative media, social sciences and sports, our courses are led by highly experienced staff, working closely with external partners and organisations to ensure high quality programmes and a rich student experience.
