About
History
Huddersfield has a rich history of vocational education, which is still a cornerstone of the present institution, and this dates back to the creation of the Huddersfield Scientific and Mechanic Institute in 1825.
Education
We offer high quality teaching with a strongly vocational emphasis. In fact, we were voted a top university for teaching quality in the Times Higher Education Supplement league table in May 2005. We're also among the UK's top 10 providers of 'sandwich courses' where students undertake a paid work placement in industry or commerce. That's one of the reasons why we've got an impressive record for graduate employment. It's a direct result of our practical and vocational approach, combining real work experience with high academic standards.
Research
The University of Huddersfield’s researchers are dedicated to solving the problems and answering the questions posed by industry, science and society as a whole. Our pioneering research is showcased by internationally recognised centres of excellence, strategic industry relationships and a commitment to providing state-of-the-art facilities and equipment.
