University Profile
The University of Bath is a top 10 UK university (The Guardian 2021, The Complete University Guide 2021 and The Times & The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021) with a reputation for outstanding research and teaching excellence. A world-class university in a world heritage city – a nurturing environment for enterprising minds. The University has Gold status in the Teacher’s Excellence Framework and our students continue to give us top marks for the quality of our degree programmes and their student experience.
Students are attracted by the excellent academic reputation and outstanding graduate employment record. There are three faculties: Science, Engineering and Humanities & Social Sciences, plus a School of Management. There is plenty to get involved with outside of studies, with over 200 groups and societies, a purpose-built centre of the Arts and our world-renowned Sports Training Village.
We are the only UK research-intensive university offering all our students valuable study abroad or work experience as part of their degree. A placement means students gain valuable work experience and make contacts for the future, making them extremely employable upon graduation. Some may even make an impact in their chosen industry before graduating! Fusing academic thinking with practical experience is at the core of what we do.
