Why Choose Us?
A long history of success
Bath Spa University was established as a modern, innovative university in 2005. But our roots can be traced back over 160 years to Bath School of Art. We have a strong (and growing) reputation that encompasses our three schools: the Bath School of Art and Design, Institute for Education and the College of Liberal Arts, including the Bath Business School.
Talented teachers
Passionate. Inspiring. Down-to-earth. Approachable. We're proud to have a team of talented teachers, many of whom bring direct industry experience. Away from the seminar room or studio, most are involved in research - and many are renowned in their respective fields.
In 2017, we were awarded Silver in the Teaching Excellence Framework. The award recognises that Bath Spa University "delivers high-quality teaching, learning and outcomes for its students. It consistently exceeds rigorous national quality requirements for UK higher education."
Flexible courses
Every student is unique. Which is why we've made our master's courses and options as flexible as possible. We offer a broad range of courses across art, sciences, education, social science and business.
Outstanding location
Period buildings, rolling parkland and cutting-edge creativity. Iconic sights and off-the-beaten-track discoveries. Bath is one of the UK's most popular and historic cities. But it's anything but stuck in the past. The city is a hotbed of innovation and creativity, just 15 minutes from Bristol and 90 minutes from London.
Strong caring ethos
Supportive and accessible tutors and lecturers. A strong caring ethos that runs in everything we do. Our student services offer advice on anything from finances to homesickness, as well as offering disability support and so much more.
A Top 6 University for Creative Scene
We were delighted to be voted one of the top six creative universities in the UK in the Which? University Student Survey 2017.

We're part of a global community, continually reaching out and building close partnerships and links with organisations around the world. And we give our students plenty of opportunities to spend time abroad and get an international perspective. At the same time, we love welcoming international students to our beautiful campus and showing them what makes Bath so special
Safe and secure
We provide an environment that allows our students to concentrate on what matters most. The campuses are beautiful, and the city of Bath itself is renowned internationally with an enviable reputation for being enjoyable and safe to live in. In fact, it's ranked as one of the top 'safe student cities' according to research by the Complete University Guide in 2017. It has a personality all of its own, with an intimate yet vibrant community.
