About The University of Cumbria

The University of Cumbria is a modern university formed in 2007, serving a large and predominantly rural region of North West England through campuses in Carlisle, Ambleside, Barrow-in-Furness, and London. Its distributed model reflects the university's mission to widen access for communities across one of England's most sparsely populated counties.

Subject strengths include nursing and allied health professions, education, outdoor and adventure studies, policing, and forestry and conservation. The Ambleside campus, set within the Lake District National Park, is particularly well regarded for environmental and outdoor studies, and partnerships with the NHS underpin its health-focused programmes.
