We’ve invested in impressive facilities so, when you graduate, your knowledge and experience will be up-to-date. From a flight simulator to a hospital clinic, or Sports and Wellbeing Clinic to psychology lab, future employers will see that you know your way around already.

Ideal location

You’ll be studying in one of three main locations, either in beautiful Buckinghamshire (High Wycombe or Aylesbury) or in vibrant Middlesex (Uxbridge). Wherever your course lands you, you’ll find welcoming, safe communities, plenty of entertainment to keep you busy, and miles of glorious countryside to explore. Frequent and fast connections to London give you easy access to the thrills and bustle of the capital from all campuses, without the high living costs. All of the locations are close to train or tube stations. The major London airports, such as Heathrow Airport, are also nearby.

Home away from home

Moving away can seem daunting but we offer a range of accommodation options to choose from and our halls of residence gives you a great opportunity to meet new people.

We also have lots of support services on campus, so no matter what your question or problem, we can point you in the direction of someone who can help.
