Welcome!

Welcome to Northumbria University, we are delighted that you are considering studying here and are pleased to welcome you on campus for our Open Day.

Open Days are a great opportunity to find out more about why we are a research-intensive university that unlocks potential for all, changing lives regionally, nationally and internationally; and Winner of University of the Year at the Times Higher Education Awards 2022.

Visit our outstanding facilities and discover the range of support services we offer our students, as well as enjoying the vibrant student community that we have here in Newcastle. Be sure to talk to our staff and students and ask lots of questions while you are here.

We hope you enjoy your day!

We recommend that you arrive on campus at least 30 minutes before your first talk or activity to give yourself time to check in at one of our Registration points.

Please note that information, advice and guidance received at the Open Day is accurate as of today, but can be subject to change as we review our courses to ensure that they are up to date and relevant and that you are receiving the best possible educational experience. Our website is the most up to date place to review our information. In the event of changes the University will consult and inform students in good time and will take reasonable steps to minimise disruption.

Which Campus?

Check Which Campus to Attend

Northumbria University has two campuses in Newcastle – City Campus and Coach Lane Campus.

Please make sure you check which Campus the subjects that you are interested in are held at.

If the subjects that you are interested in are at City Campus, you are on the correct side of the Programme for your Subject Sessions. If you are interested in any of the courses in the list to the right, these are at Coach Lane Campus, so please turn the Programme over for further information on your Subject Sessions, General Sessions and Tours.

There is lots on offer at both campuses so you won’t miss out. There is also a free shuttle bus between City Campus and Coach Lane Campus running on the day if you would like to see both campuses (see page 7).
