What’s it like to study a Masters in Wolverhampton?

Originally associated with the woollen trade, Wolverhampton expanded during the 19th century following the discovery of local raw materials and the establishment of mining operations and factories in the area. As it grew to prominence the city was visited by members of the Royal Family and became an important part of one of the first major British railway networks, the Great Western Railway.

The 20th century saw Wolverhampton develop further as a major manufacturing centre and, as part of this proud manufacturing heritage, the city was the place of construction for several early Grand Prix vehicles, including the first to break the 200mph land speed record.
