Trip to Keele

23-25 Jan 2011

Keele
Its name came from Anglo-Saxon Cȳ-hyll = "Cow-hill".

Keele University
Keele University is a campus university located near Newcastle-under-Lyme in Staffordshire, England. Founded in 1949 as an experimental college dedicated to a broad curriculum and interdisciplinary study, Keele is most notable for pioneering the dual honours degree in Britain. The University occupies a 617 acre (2.5 km²) rural campus close to the village of Keele and houses a Science Park and a conference centre, making it the largest single-site campus university in the UK. The University's School of Medicine and School of Nursing and Midwifery operate clinical courses from a separate campus at the University Hospital of North Staffordshire in Hartshill, Stoke-on-Trent. The University estimates that there are now upwards of 5,600 full-time students at Keele; 1,300 part-time students; and around 4,000 participants on professional and short courses. The University is committed to further growth, with the stated objective of increasing its numbers to 10,000 full-time students.
