Hartpury College was established after World War II as an agricultural education centre with only 50 students. Today, we have more than 3500 with record numbers of students studying at both the College and the University Centre. The College remained relatively unchanged until 1990, when a new Principal initiated a rapid expansion programme, starting with the provision of a larger variety of Co...llege courses.
The first higher education degree in Equine Studies was introduced in 1992, followed by the first degree programme in Equine Science in 1994. In 1999, the first Masters degree programme opened with the first PhD student coming in 2004. In 2017, Hartpury was granted ‘Taught Degree Awarding Powers’ (TDAP) and we will award our own degrees from September 2018. This provides us with the independence to grow and further strengthen our Higher Education offering.
Hartpury has had the acorn as its symbol for over 20 years. More than just a reflection of the beautiful countryside that surrounds us, it symbolises the potential that lies within us all. Hartpury provides everything the acorn will need to grow - the best facilities, the best staff, and the best environment to support students’ ability to grow strong.
At Hartpury, we believe we are the best at what we do and we aim to continue to lead the way by innovating and evolving to give our students the best possible experience and environment in which to develop, supported by experienced and passionate staff. Developing a high performing organisation that develops and is guided by strong and effective leaders with the vision and energy to deliver our strategic aims is key to that ambition. In this section, you can meet the governors, find out more about Hartpury’s Corporation – effectively the board of directors – and its responsibilities, as well as wider governance and policy information and our committee structure.
With more than £50million invested, we have grown and developed over the last 20 years into a leading education provider across all of our specialist areas and, in 2016, we had record numbers of both College and University Centre students. In 2017, Hartpury was granted ‘Taught Degree Awarding Powers’ (TDAP) and we will award our own degrees from September 2018. This provides us with the independence to grow and further strengthen our Higher Education offering. Our Hartpury 2020 Strategy sets out our vision and plans for growth and enhancing the quality of our provision so that we enable our students to be the best they can become.
