The '''University of Bath''' is a [[campus university]] located in [[Bath, Somerset|Bath]], [[England]]. It received its [[Royal Charter]] in 1966, making it one of the newest "traditional" universities in the [[United Kingdom]]. The University has appeared at the top end of national league tables since its inception and has established a strong reputation in teaching and research.
== History ==
Despite being granted university status only forty years ago, the University of Bath can trace its roots to a technical school established in [[Bristol]] 100 years earlier, the Bristol Trade School of 1856. In 1885, the school became part of the [[Society of Merchant Venturers]] and was renamed the Merchant Venturers' Technical College. Meanwhile, in the neighbouring city of Bath, a pharmaceutical school, the Bath School of Pharmacy, was founded in 1907. This became part of the Technical College in 1929.
In 1949, the college came under the control of the Bristol Education Authority and was renamed the Bristol College of Technology, which was subsequently changed again, in 1960, to the Bristol College of Science and Technology when it became one of ten technical colleges under the umbrella of the Ministry of Education. The college was mainly housed in the former Muller's Orphanage at Ashley Down, Bristol, which now houses part of the [[City of Bristol College]].
[[Image:University of Bath.jpg|thumb|450px|centre|University of Bath (Claverton Down Campus).]]
In 1963, the government completed an inquiry into the state of higher education in the United Kingdom. This was known as the [[Robbins Report|Robbins Committee report]]. It was this report that paved the way for the college (along with a [[Plate glass university|number of other institutions]]) to assume university status.
Although the grounds of Kingsweston House were briefly considered, the [[Bristol|City of Bristol]] was unable to offer the growing college a suitable site. Following discussions between the College Principal and the Director of Education in [[Bath, Somerset|Bath]], an agreement was reached to provide the college with a new home in [[Claverton Down]], Bath, on a [[greenfield land|greenfield site]] overlooking the city of Bath.
Construction of a purpose-built campus in Bath began in 1964, with the first building, now known as 1 South, completed in 1965, and the [[Royal Charter]] was granted in 1966. Over the subsequent decade, new buildings were added as the campus took shape. A campus in Oakfield, [[Swindon]], was opened in 2000.
In November 1966, the first degree ceremony was held at the [[Assembly Rooms]] in Bath.
Recent discoveries from city records reveal that there were plans in the [[19th Century]] to build a college of the [[University of Oxford]] on the very same site, which would have resulted in a university of a very different character. Such plans, however, did not come to fruition.
== Campus and facilities ==
[[Image:Uni.of.bath.campus.arp.jpg|thumb|The Parade, a central pedestrian thoroughfare connecting most academic blocks.]]
The university's main campus is located on [[Claverton Down]], two [[kilometre]]s from [[Bath, Somerset|Bath]]. The campus is compact; it is possible to walk from one end to the other in fifteen minutes.
Architectural plans of the university show that the design involved the separation of vehicular and pedestrian traffic, with road traffic on the ground floors and pedestrians on a raised central thoroughfare, known as the Parade. Buildings would line the parade and student residences built on tower blocks rise from the central thoroughfare.
Such plans were mostly adhered to. At the centre of the campus is the Library and Learning Centre, a 24/7 facility offering computing services, information and research assistance as well as books and journals. A number of outlets, including restaurants, bars and fast-food outlets, plus two banks, a union shop, a book shop, hairdresser, insurance company, a small supermarket and an oriental supermarket, as well as academic blocks, are housed around the parade. Buildings are named based on their location relative to the library - 1 East, 2 East and so forth based on their distance from the library with the same applying to the south and west. Odd-numbered buildings are on the same side of the parade as the library, and even-numbered buildings are on the opposite side.
Buildings along the east-west axis are mostly directly accessible from the parade, which is generally considered to be "level two", but later additions, such as 7 West, 9 West, 3 West North and 8 East, follow this rule less strictly. 7 West is generally only accessible via 5 West or 9 West, and 3 West North, 9 West and 8 East have entrances at ground level at varying distances from the main parade. Buildings on the south of the campus, 1 South to 4 South, are accessible via roads and pedestrian walkways by the university lake and gardens.
Buildings, like many so-called [[Plate Glass University|plate glass universities]], were constructed in a functional, modernistic style using [[concrete]], although such designs were later derided for lacking the charm of the [[Victorian architecture|Victorian]] [[Red Brick university|red-brick universities]] or the [[Ancient Universities|ancient and medieval]] ones. In Bath, there is a particular contrast between the concrete campus and the [[Georgian architecture|Georgian style]] architecture of the [[World Heritage Site|World Heritage City]] of Bath.
The eastern part of the campus is dominated by the Sports Training Village, built in 1992 and enhanced in 2003 with a significant new extension.
The northern perimeter of the university is bounded by student residences including Westwood, Eastwood and Solsbury and Marlborough courts. The original plan for students to be housed in tower blocks above the parade continues with Norwood House. However, the second tower block, Wessex House, now hosts a number of offices rather than residences.
The university also owns buildings in the City of Bath, mostly student residences dotted around town, although Carpenter House is also home to a life-long learning centre and a business facility (the Innovation Centre).
Today, major campus works continues, notably the completion of the new building 3 West North in 2005, the reconstruction of a major building on campus, 4 West, and the construction of new student residences at the north-eastern perimeter.
=== Oakfield campus ===
The university's Oakfield campus, based in [[Swindon]], offers full-time, part-time and community courses. A conference centre and small business and innovation centres were opened in 2005.<ref>{{cite web| title=About the University and the Oakfield Campus|publisher=University of Bath|url=http://www.bath.ac.uk/swindon/about/|accessdate=2007-03-22}}</ref>
== Academics and courses ==
The university's major academic strengths have been the physical [[science]]s, [[mathematics]], [[engineering]] and [[technology]]. Today, the university is strong in [[management]], [[humanities]] and the [[social science]]s. Courses place a strong emphasis on [[vocational education]]; with many industry links, the university recommends students to take a one-year industry placement in the penultimate year of the course, although it has recently removed formal recognition of these placements from students' final degree certificates.
According to the latest government assessments, Bath has 15 subjects rated "excellent" (''the highest on the scale''). These are: [[Business]] & [[Management]] ([[Association of MBAs|AMBA]] accredited); [[Architecture]] & [[Civil Engineering]]; [[Economics]]; [[Computer Science]]; [[Electronic & Electrical Engineering]]; [[Mechanical Engineering]] ([[Institution of Mechanical Engineers|IMechE]] accredited); [[Mathematics]], [[Statistics]] and [[Operational research]]; [[Education]]; [[Molecular]] [[Biosciences]]; [[Biosciences]]; [[Physics]] and [[Astronomy]]; [[Politics]]; [[Hospitality]], [[Leisure]], [[Recreation]], [[Sports|Sport]] and [[Tourism]]; [[Social Policy]] and [[Administration (business)|Administration]].<ref>[http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,8404-1246309.html ''The Times'']</ref>
[[Image:University of Bath Parade at Night.jpg|thumb|450px|centre|University of Bath Parade at Night (Claverton Down Campus).]]
== Admissions and students ==
Admissions generally require top grades at [[Advanced Level (UK)|A-Level]] with seven applications for each place,<ref>[http://www.push.co.uk/Uni_Profile.aspx?id=DBA53EA6-8CA2-490D-84CF-382C34BFD08B University of Bath], Push, accessed [[25 August]] [[2007]]</ref> the number of applications rising by 16 per cent in 2007.<ref>[http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/education/good_university_guide/article2166281.ece Profile: University of Bath], ''The Times'', [[15 August]] [[2007]], accessed [[25 August]] [[2007]]</ref>
The university has grown rapidly, particularly in the last few years. As of December 2006, 11,965 students were studying at the university; of whom 8,985 (75%) were undergraduates (full-time and part-time) and 2,980 (25%) were postgraduates.
Over 25% of students are international students (those with non-British domicile), reflecting the university's strong international reputation, with the largest number coming from [[China]] (including [[Hong Kong]]), [[Germany]] and [[Greece]].<ref>[http://www.bath.ac.uk/about/facts/ Facts and figures], University of Bath, accessed [[25 August]] [[2007]]</ref>
== Housing and transport ==
=== Housing ===
Most students in the first year live in one of the 3,000 self-catered single study bedrooms located on and off campus. In subsequent years, students generally live in town in privately owned shared student houses, although a number may be offered excess rooms off-campus. Postgraduate students have the opportunity to choose between postgraduate campus residences and off-campus residences.
There are 4 Senior Resident Tutors and 33 resident tutors spread amongst the campus and off-campus residences.
Resident Tutors are usually PhD students who live with student to ensure the provision and maintenance of a varied standard of welfare, health and safety, social activities and good order for students living in University residential accommodation.

== Expansion ==
;Claverton Down
*The university continually upgrades its Claverton Down campus with major new teaching blocks. A proposal to move the boundary of the [[greenbelt]] from where it crosses the campus to its edge, to facilitate further development, was agreed in October 2007 by the [[Bath and North East Somerset|local council]] following a public inquiry.
*In July 2005, building 3 West North (officially opened on [[27 October]]) was completed.
*The deconstruction of the [[asbestos]]-contaminated 4 West was completed in mid-2005 and the new 4 West building is being constructed.
*The ICIA Arts Complex is planning to expand by adding a new building adjacent to the theatre. It is hoped to start work in 2008.
*Due to be completed by summer 2008 is the new R5 building, to be known as Woodland Court. This student accommodation is expected to house 355 students [http://www.bath.ac.uk/news/2006/12/21/r5-approval211206.html]. The design has been awarded an excellent rating for environmental performance by BREEAM, although the building work severely disrupts students living nearby, especially during exam periods.<ref>{{cite web | title=Planners approve University of Bath's sustainable student residences| url=http://www.adp-architects.co.uk/newsdetail.php?NewsID=37}}</ref>
;Swindon
* Under the Gateway Project, the university had planned to build a major new campus next to the Great Western Hospital and the Coate Water nature reserve. The project had met opposition from environmentalists and locals<ref>{{cite web|title=Swindon Civic Trust Town Centre University Proposal|publisher=Swindon Civic Trust|last=Hayward|first=Alan|author-link=Alan Hayward|url=http://www.swindoncivictrust.org.uk/Resources/SCTTownCentreUniversity.htm|accessdate=2007-03-22}}</ref> but had met with Government approval.<ref>{{cite news|title=Coate gets the vote|publisher=Swindon Advertiser|last=Osborne|first=Anthony|url=http://archive.thisiswiltshire.co.uk/2004/10/20/104033.html|date=2004-10-20|accessdate=2007-03-22}}</ref> The University withdrew from the project in March 2007 citing "prevailing planning and funding conditions".<ref>{{cite press release|title=University of Bath withdraws from Gateway project|publisher=University of Bath|date=2007-03-01|url=http://www.bath.ac.uk/news/2007/3/1/gateway-withdraw-release.html|accessdate=2007-03-22}}</ref>
