The University of Buckingham

The University is proud to have been shortlisted for University of the Year in the Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024, reflecting the University’s ongoing dedication to teaching quality and student life. The University delivers more than just an education; it provides a launchpad for students’ careers. Its commitment to career-focused courses has seen it ranked 2nd for Graduate Prospects (on track) in theComplete University Guide 2023. Award-winning small class tutorials ensure every student is known by name and supported throughout their studies, including by dedicated personal tutors. As pioneers of the two-year degree, Buckingham offers a condensed version of the traditional three-year degree, meaning students can gain a full honours degree and complete their studies a whole year earlier. Alternatively, students can complete both their undergraduate and master’s degrees in just three years, saving both time and money. The University also launched the UK’s first private Medical School, which recently secured General Medical Council (GMC) accreditation. The GMC commended Buckingham for its ‘excellent professional, academic and pastoral support that extends throughout the University and clinical learning environments’. A wide variety of scholarships are available for eligible international students.1 + 2

The University of Buckingham offers a unique ‘1+2’ option (a foundation programme and undergraduate degree with honours in just three years). This is made possible due to Buckingham’s innovative term structure but does not lead to an increased workload for its students on a day-to-day basis. Foundation pathways are available in Business, Law, Computing, Economics, Accounting and Finance and Journalism.
