Study in a UNESCO World Heritage City

Bath Spa University

UNESCO World Heritage country manor

When it comes to choosing where to study, degree offerings and courses are top of the list. Bath Spa University has you covered there, with undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes across an impressive range of subjects. However, what you study is only one part of the equation. Where you study is pretty important, too – and there are few places that can match what Bath Spa University has to offer.

Not only do you have the opportunity to live in Bath, one of the world’s most charming cities, full of cosy cafes and pubs, world-class museums and shopping, and inspiring Georgian architecture, with streets that have been the backdrop to numerous shows including recent hits Bridgerton and Poldark, but you also get to study on campuses that make Hogwarts look run-of-the-mill.

Newton Park, the university’s main campus, sits on a beautiful parkland estate, replete with rolling hills, plenty of wildlife, lakes, a country manor and even a medieval castle. Corsham Court, our centre for postgraduate study, has Grade 1 listed historical status, and boasts of landscaped formal gardens, impressive views everywhere you turn, and some resident peacocks strutting across the greens.

However, not everything feels like it’s been torn from the pages of a Jane Austen novel. Studying at Bath Spa University means you can take advantage of modern, state-of-the-art facilities, too. Whether at the RIBA award-winning arts campus, with technical workshops surrounded by open, flexible studio spaces, or in Commons at Newton Park, with high tech digital media labs and professional-grade TV studios that have been used by BBC crews, Bath Spa University has plenty to offer to support your creativity.

On top of all that, Bath has consistently been ranked as one of the safest cities in the UK. It’s walkable, surrounded by green countryside, and has plenty of offer for food, drink and entertainment, as well as good employment opportunities for students. Bath has everything to be considered the quintessential student city, yet, if you are looking for a change of scenery, the buzzing big city of Bristol is only 15 minutes away, and global hub London only 90 minutes by train.

If you are the least bit curious about seeing yourself as a student here, come check us out, either virtually or by coming to see us in person. We love it here and think you would, too!
