Perhaps three features mark us out from
other
UK
Universities:
-
Small and friendly - we are about a twentieth of the size of
the average
UK
University, with a strong collegiate
feel, set in an historic market town, but not too far from the
bustle of Oxford, Milton Keynes and even London.
-
Remarkable international community - although
UK
students remain the biggest single group, the University has
current students from 70 to 80 different countries and an alumni
network that stretches round the world.
-
Dedicated staff - not only do we have a student:academic staff
ratio of 7.8:1, twice as good as most
UK
Universities,
we have an incredibly stable community of academics and
non-academics. It is this last feature that allows us, for example,
to offer fast track undergraduate degrees in two years and to
fulfil the University's motto for students of 'Flying on our own
Wings'.
