Welcome from the Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of Bradford

Professor Mark Cleary

Welcome to the University of Bradford's website. I hope you will look through the site, and find a course or research topic that interests you.

We are very positive about what the University has to offer you:

• We are committed to the total learning experience reflected by six 'excellent' scores in recent subject reviews including Pharmacy; Physiotherapy, Radiography, and Optometry; Nursing and Midwifery; and Archaeological Sciences, with top marks for Peace Studies and Interdisciplinary Human Studies
• We have invested more than £7 million in the development of new lecture rooms and teaching facilities to enhance the student environment
• Our courses not only develop you as a person, they also equip you for the fast-changing world of work
• We collaborate with industry and the professions at all levels - placements, sponsorship and collaborative research - all of which support an excellent graduate employment record
• Whatever your subject, there are opportunities to develop your IT, teamwork and communication skills, and learn or improve a foreign language
• The University is outward-looking, relevant, modern and cosmopolitan. It is also friendly, unpretentious, and student-oriented
• The City of Bradford is full of character: cultural, lively and interesting

Do visit us. We want to see you here, and we want you to see us. We sincerely hope you will then want to apply to Bradford to study.

I personally look forward to welcoming you to the University of Bradford.
