About the institution
The University of Worcester gained university status in 2005. The university has an ‘earn as you learn’ scheme, focusing on giving students the opportunity to complete part-time work experience while studying. Facilities include the 2,000-seat University of Worcester Arena, used by both students and elite athletes; The Hive, the UK’s first joint university and public library; and the National Pollen and Aerobiology Research Unit, which assists the Met Office in producing the pollen forecast.
