It is home to the Kent and Medway Engineering, Design, Growth and Enterprise (EDGE) Hub, alongside specialist health, science and medicine facilities. Providing innovative learning and teaching, our industry focused courses support highly skilled work-ready graduates into a range of careers and sectors.
