College a standard-bearer in higher education

Perth College is the largest partner in the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI), Scotland’s newest university, and is also a leading college of further and higher education.

The campus has students at all stages in their life-journey, with some taking the first steps in their career, others developing their expertise, or returning to study after a career change.

Training, education, and skills development opportunities are available to local people, the wider community and international students through a main campus and network of learning centres at Pathways in Perth city centre, Blairgowrie, Crieff and Kinross.

Study options include full-time, parttime and distance and online courses in nationally recognised qualifications, designed to meet the needs of industry and commerce.

They include leisure, access, Highers, HNC/D, degree and postgraduate programmes.

A range of courses are on offer in business and accounting; computing; management; food studies and hospitality; sport and fitness; creative industries; music and music business; audio engineering and theatre arts; language school; aeronautical and aircraft engineering; air service training; automotive engineering; mechanical and electrical systems; built environment and science technology; beauty therapy; hairdressing; early years; health and social care; humanities and social sciences; new opportunities; social and vocational studies; National 5, Highers and Modern Apprenticeships and the Centre for Mountain Studies.

The new Academy of Sport and Wellbeing provides a vibrant addition to the Crieff Road campus.

The start-of-the-art facility, which includes a climbing centre, has an academic focus on achieving excellence in the delivery of sport, health and wellbeing courses to degree level.

Perth College UHI ensures students’ voices are heard, not only at a local level but also nationally, through the Students’ Association.

In addition, advice and guidance is available through the Student Services team for help with personal matters, study and career goals and student finance.

Extra study support is available, as is specialised assistance for those with physical disabilities or learning difficulties. A nursery for one to five-yearolds is open to students’ children and to the wider community.
