Why UCR?

Dating back to 1921, we embrace our traditional legacy, alongside our truly progressive values of innovation, integrity, impact and inclusivity

Why choose UCR?

At UCR, our purpose is to inspire your purpose. We will equip you with the skills to grow, progress and achieve more than you thought possible.

The exploration of new land-based solutions is more critical than ever — and no one champions environmental stewardship and sustainability like we do.

Our innovative curriculum combines over a century of experience with a passionate commitment to progressive and leading-edge technology.

We know our students come to study with us because they care about the earth we share, and UCR offers a unique opportunity to learn how to lead the way in protecting our planet.

Be on the leading edge

Our stunning campus in Cheshire is set amongst 330 hectares of park and woodlands, and boasts both a working farm and zoo. A recent £80 million investment also ensures that our facilities are continuously evolving, offering you the finest and most relevant resources to complete your study.

Be what our world needs

Our combined emphasis on academic and practical skills, alongside our close relationships with industry, provides far more than a traditional education. We make sure you graduate with both the academic knowledge and practical skills you need for your career in your chosen industry.

Our academic staff are both research and industry-active and are wholly committed to sharing their extensive knowledge. We focus on small-group teaching and one-to-one support, providing you with a tailored educational experience that develops you as a professional and ensures you are career-ready by the time you graduate.

Be part of something bigger

UCR is unique in that it has a closely-knit community and a proven track record in promoting inclusivity. Join us and you’ll be part of an academic family of both students and staff that fosters a sense of belonging from the moment you set foot on our campus.
