Applications are now open for Higher Education courses starting in 2027 at Wiltshire College & University Centre, giving prospective students the opportunity to gain a university-level qualification while studying closer to home.
Whether you’re progressing from a Level 3 course, looking to develop new skills or considering a career change, the College’s Higher Education offer combines industry-focused learning with the support and flexibility to help students achieve their goals.
The 2027 offer includes university-level courses in:

- Motorsport engineering
- Film production and esports
All designed to equip students with the skills and experience needed for the careers of the future.
Designed in collaboration with employers and university partners, the courses blend academic study with practical experience, helping students develop the skills needed to succeed in some of the UK’s fastest-growing industries.
Students benefit from smaller class sizes, expert tutors and strong employer links while avoiding many of the costs associated with moving away to study – proving that you don’t have to go far to go further.
Nicola Dew, Quality Manager for Higher Education and Compliance at Wiltshire College & University Centre, said: “We know that Higher Education looks different for everyone. Some students progress directly from a Level 3 course, while others are returning to education, looking to upskill or considering a completely new career path.
“Our courses are designed to support those different journeys, offering flexible study options, practical learning and clear progression routes into employment. By studying locally, students can gain a recognised qualification while staying connected to their support networks, building valuable industry contacts and preparing for the careers they want.”
Discover opportunities with our free virtual open events
To help prospective students explore their options, the College is hosting two free online Higher Education virtual open events on Wednesday 8 July and Wednesday 2 December at 5PM.
