History
Education has an extensive history in Northampton dating back to the 13th century whilst the University of Northampton has evolved from the beginning of the 20th century.
Education
Nothampton wants to break the mould of what Higher Education can be. This has led us to build a whole new University from the ground up that is designed to reflect the way that you actually learn rather than the way you are expected to learn. Join us and you will be one of the first students through the doors of our Waterside Campus.
Perhaps you want to study for a degree to kick-start your career or take it to the next level? Maybe you’re passionate about a subject that has grabbed your interest and want to learn every detail you can? Maybe you want to change the world for the better? Our commitment to transforming lives and inspiring change is at the heart of all that we do.
Research
All the research that we undertake, and the work that we do to generate new knowledge, is designed to have a social impact, helping improve people’s lives and the environment. Delivering social impact through research is a key part of our strategic plan Transforming Lives + Inspiring Change and is integrated with the Changemaker Challenges.
The Changemaker Challenges include making a positive difference to Northamptonshire in the key areas of:
- Health and Wellbeing
- Education
- Culture, Heritage and the Environment
- Enterprise and Innovation
The University is working with local partners to deliver these four Challenges as we strive to improve Northamptonshire.
Career
The University of Northampton has built on our global reputation as a leader in social innovation to create a unique employability offer that we believe will ensure that our Graduates will stand out from the crowd and become highly employable, digitally literate, global citizens of the future.

Amazing uni
It's an amazing university. The staff are lovely, the campus is brand new and clean, it's a perfect uni in my opinion. They have been really supportive and have kept us up to date with all information we need.
Distance Learner
I'm doing my MBA online. Quick responses from tutors whenever I have needed support. The online facilities, especially the digital library for research, are very good. You can view feedback through the NILE website and there is plenty of guidance available on how to structure and write essays, which has been really helpful.
A Mixed Three Years
Could be worse but also could be alot better too. Staff are hit and miss as some lecturers really know their stuff where others do not. For my course the available modules were diverse and interesting and I would really recommend it. The main difficulty was with planning for assignments and sometimes the ambiguity of what they were asking us to do which left many of us stressed and confused. Lecturers were attentive and replied quickly to contact and there is a wide availability of one on one options too. The facilities are all new from when I started and are brilliant and have lots of spaces to work and study. The social life is also okay with social groups holding activities each week on a Wednesday night. Overall its not been a bad 3 years but it hasn't been without its challenges and stress
