What makes us different

We were awarded triple gold in the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) 2023, which assesses higher education institutions in England on the quality of experience and outcomes for their undergraduate courses and subjects. 

92% of our research is world-leading or internationally excellent (according to the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021) so your studies will be informed by some of the most exciting and innovative ideas across all fields. 

Our vibrant campus, and location on the edge of the city of Bath, offer sporting, social and cultural opportunities. The Sport University of the year award reflects our commitment to offer sport at every level. We are one of the safest campus sites in the UK - we were one of the first universities in the country to win a national police approved security award. 

Join our friendly, high-achieving community to gain the knowledge, skills and experience you’ll need to thrive in a world of global networks. 

The focus on employability at the University is amazing. Many professors know that employability is a priority for students, and they teach and build the courses accordingly.
