Doncaster Education City (or DEC) is a £90 million higher and further education facility in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. The centrepiece of the project is a new purpose-built campus in the centre of the town nicknamed The Hub.

DEC is a joint project between Doncaster College, Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council, the South Yorkshire Learning and Skills Council and Yorkshire Forward.

Existing facilities

Doncaster's higher and further educational needs are currently served by Doncaster College. Doncaster College has two campuses - The Hub and the University Centre, Doncaster.

University Centre

In 2004, Doncaster College designated its High Melton campus as University Centre, with the aim of offering more degree courses, again with support from the University of Hull.[1]

The future

The aim of the project is to have a University College, Doncaster by 2009, and by 2012 have a University of Doncaster.[2]
