Bath Spa University is based in and around the beautiful historical city of Bath, UK. The university evolved from the Bath School of Art which came into existence 160 years ago and continues to enjoy the distinction of being one of the leading arts schools in the UK.
With an emphasis on creativity, culture and enterprise, Bath Spa University was ranked 7th in UK for quality of Teaching and Learning by Times Higher Education in 2010, and scored 88% in National Student Survey 2011.
Subject Strengths: Art & Design; Education; Science, Enterprise and Environment; Humanities and Cultural Industries; Music & Performing Arts.
The campus is home to all undergraduate courses and subjects except Art and Design. There can’t be many universities in the UK that rival this unique setting. It's an amazing parkland estate (leased from the Duchy of Cornwall), and despite its idyllic rural setting, it's only four miles from the buzz of central Bath.
The grounds were designed by the well-known landscape architect Capability Brown in the eighteenth century. The campus also has its our very own nature reserve, a lake with its own lakeside walk, woods, historic listed buildings, and rolling fields.
