UTC Swindon
University technical college in Swindon, Wiltshire, England
UTC Swindon is a University Technical College (UTC) in Swindon, England that opened in September 2014[2] for students of ages 14–19. The college specialises in engineering and is sponsored by Oxford Brookes University and Johnson Matthey Fuel Cells.[3]
The campus is on the northwestern edge of Swindon Railway Village, built in the 1840s for workers at the Great Western Railway's Swindon Works. The college is partly newly built and partly in a single-storey building of c. 1845 which was formerly part of the GWR School. Also on the site is a preserved cast iron water tower of 1870, which served the Works.[4][5][6]
The college has capacity for 600 pupils.[1]
