Established in 1839, the University of Chester is one of the oldest higher education institutions in the country.
We offer a warm welcome to students and staff from all parts of the world.
The University of Chester has been making history since 1839, when it was founded by such pioneers as the great 19th-century prime ministers, William Gladstone and the Earl of Derby, and a former Archbishop of Canterbury.
The University, a Church of England institution founded in 1839, continues to be guided by Christian values and is justifiably proud of the open, inclusive and supportive environment that characterises the institution.
