The University of Cumbria is a higher education institution based in Carlisle, in the Cumbria region of the United Kingdom. It operates five main campuses—Carlisle, Lancaster, Ambleside and London—and maintains additional sites at Energus, Workington and Furness College in Barrow-in-Furness. Founded in 2007 through the merger of several legacy institutions, the university continues a long history of delivering higher education in the area. It offers programs in education, health and wellbeing, arts, business and science with an emphasis on employability and practical experience, including placements. Smaller class sizes are intended to provide closer access to tutors and tailored support. It provides financial aid through bursaries and scholarships and aims for a relatively low cost of living around its campuses.
