University College Falmouth is a university college in Falmouth, Cornwall, United Kingdom which opened in 1902. It had previously been the Falmouth School of Art and then Falmouth College of Arts until it received degree-awarding powers (and the right to use the title 'University College') in March 2005.
University College Falmouth is the first institution of higher education in Cornwall to be able to award degrees in its own name. Previously, all degrees in Cornwall were awarded from the University of Exeter, University of Plymouth or other universities located outside the county.
University College Falmouth has two campuses. Woodlane within Falmouth, and the Tremough campus of the Combined Universities in Cornwall, near Penryn.
