About Plymouth

Plymouth, England's port city, is located in Devon County on the South Coast. Plymouth’s population is about 260,000 people. Historically well known for its shipbuilding and seafaring industries, it has turned more towards the service industries in modern times while maintaining a strong tourism industry.

Plymouth Sound, or The Sound, is one of the world’s most beautiful natural harbours, perfect for waterside walks. Being on the coast, Plymouth’s weather has milder temperatures than the rest of the UK, so it is ideal if you’re looking for a warm and beachfront study environment.

You will find various courses focusing on marine business, marine biology and Earth, marine engineering, ocean and environmental sciences, shipping and logistics, and surf science.
