Our story
UHI Inverness is a partner of UHI, a further education and higher education partnership serving our communities and connected to their needs. We’re more than a college and more than a university.
From our campuses in Inverness, we offer flexible learning opportunities from access level through to PhD, to suit more people, at more levels, for more reasons.
Specialise with forestry
Scotland’s forestry sector is expanding rapidly, with more skilled workers needed across a range of roles to drive the green recovery and support sustainable forest management. The Scottish School of Forestry is the country's only forestry training provider delivering both further and higher education up to honours degree level. Set within its own practical training environment in Inverness, we've been training forestry workers and managers for the public, private and voluntary sectors for over 50 years.
