But the thing that most makes us stand out is our students. They are the inspiration and motivation for all we do.
Here, students build strong working relationships with a network of supporters, from their Personal Development Tutors to their lecturers to the Student Union, and therefore achieve more than they ever thought possible. They work side-by-side with us to improve and develop the University to make their experience as rich and rewarding as possible.
All our programmes involve work placements of some sort, and all students are trained in critical graduate-level skills such as presenting with impact, applying for jobs, managing interviews and influencing others. We work very closely with key employers on all programmes, linking our students to a network of contacts to help them in their future careers.
Our results speak for themselves: we were ranked the top university in England for teaching quality by the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2019, and the 8th university in England for student experience; 95% of students find employment or move into further study within six months of graduating; and in the National Student Survey 2018 we saw four of our courses score 100% satisfaction, and we were joint 12th in the UK for Student Satisfaction.
