Northumbria University
Newcastle upon Tyne Polytechnic was formed in 1969 through the amalgamation of Rutherford College of Technology, the College of Art and Industrial Design and the Municipal College of Commerce. Subsequently, two separate mergers added the City College of Education and Northern Counties College of Education. In 1992, the polytechnic gained university status and became the University of Northumbria at Newcastle. Bede, Newcastle and Northumbria College of Health Studies merged with the university in 1995.
