The Eden Project welcomed its second intake of university-level students this week after a highly-successful first year.

The campus has expanded and now includes a state-of-the-art eco-building known as the Green Build Hub. This will provide students with library and study facilities and incorporate a new design studio.

Eden Project Learning also now offers an access to science course for students wanting to update their science qualifications prior to starting a degree course.

Eden Project Learning is a partnership with The Cornwall College Group (TCCG) to develop home-grown talent and transform education in Cornwall by offering the chance to train to degree level at the Eden site near St Austell, with programmes awarded by Plymouth University.

University-level programmes include Horticulture, Garden and Landscape Design, Event Management, and Contemporary Storytelling and Performance. More than 60 students are starting this week.
