University of Bristol
Bristol is a successful and ambitious university where we offer you the chance to learn from, and with, some of the leading scholars in the world. Here, you will enjoy the benefits of studying in a research-rich environment where we combine a rigorous approach to learning with an innovative edge.
You will discover how our educational initiatives, including Bristol Futures and the Bristol Skills Framework, enhance your experience. We encourage you to become independent learners and leaders, while making connections between academic disciplines and between the University and the outside world. Our approach means our students are targeted by the best employers, who recognise the unique qualities Bristol graduates possess.
Your student experience is made richer still by our environment. Named best place to live in the UK in 2017, Bristol is one of the most beautiful and vibrant cities in Europe. Its green spaces and lively arts and cultural opportunities make it an exceptional place to live and study. Bristol’s independent spirit, exciting restaurants and vibrant live music scene were recognised by its appearance on National Geographic Traveller’s Cool List 2018.
Bristol has a well-established position as a global leader in sustainability and innovation and a growing reputation as one of the world’s leading digital cities. In 2019 work begins on our new Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus, a once-ina-generation project that will develop a worldclass teaching and research space focusing on digital technologies. We also continue to invest heavily in our existing campuses, upgrading and transforming facilities to build the best possible learning environment.
We hope that the outstanding experience our University can offer will help make Bristol your home away from home. Within our diverse and friendly community of staff and students you will find here a welcoming and supportive environment in which to study, explore and make friends for life.
