Subject Discovery Days are free, themed campus events for sixth form and college students, featuring interactive subject sessions, project challenges and group activities. Students can explore our award-winning campus, hear from current students, and discover where their chosen subjects could take them in the future.
Inspire your students to explore their future study and career opportunities with Edge Hill University’s Subject Discovery Days. These free, on-campus events are designed for sixth form and college students aged 16+, offering an exciting introduction to a range of subject areas and the chance to experience university-level learning firsthand.
Each Subject Discovery Day has its own unique theme, allowing students to engage with their chosen subject in interactive and memorable ways. Whether through project challenges, friendly competitions, practical workshops or collaborative group activities, students are encouraged to develop their skills, explore new ideas and experience how their subject is studied at university.
There is also the opportunity to explore Edge Hill's award-winning campus and facilities, hear from current undergraduate students studying related courses, and ask questions about student life, studying at university and future progression routes.
Subject Discovery Days are designed to complement A Level and BTEC study, enabling students to deepen their understanding of their chosen subject while supporting informed decision-making about progression to higher education. The strong focus on careers and progression means these events can also contribute towards Gatsby Benchmark objectives within your school's careers programme.
