Meet the staff, tour the campus and find out about life as a student at the University Centre Truro & Penwith.
Our University Centre aims to give our Higher Education students the very best learning experience with outstanding individual support, leading to high levels of achievement and the best employment opportunities.
What To Expect
Head to our Fal Building Foyer, where our Student ambassadors and University Centre team will welcome you to the event. During your tour of the building, you will be able to visit specialist facilities such as the Learning Centre, Nursing Simulation Suite, Media facilities and our new state-of-the-art lecture theatre.
There will be a lot to take in during the event, so taking some information away with you will make your discussions at home a lot easier. Grab some of our course literature before you leave and a free notebook and pen to make notes while you talk with members of staff.
