Enroll in Britain’s most comprehensive floating university programs where ferry journeys provide advanced educational content in marine biology, environmental science, and maritime engineering. These university-level programs make complex academic subjects accessible to families while providing hands-on learning experiences that traditional universities cannot match.
The advanced Isles of Scilly curriculum covers three hours of intensive marine studies including dolphin behavioral psychology, seal social anthropology, and whale conservation biology. The Scillonian operates as a mobile campus where families participate in university-level research while enjoying accessible presentations that make complex scientific concepts understandable for all ages.
Specialized Hebridean programs offer advanced courses in marine acoustics through seal communication studies and conservation biology through sea eagle recovery programs. These graduate-level subjects become accessible through hands-on field experience that combines theoretical knowledge with practical application in real marine environments.
Engineering university programs include advanced mechanical studies of ferry systems and maritime technology applications. The Glenelg-Skye ferry’s traditional mechanisms provide historical engineering courses, while Devon’s tugboat operations demonstrate contemporary maritime engineering that bridges traditional knowledge with modern applications.
