Chesham and Horton
Named after Chesham Street, which was once lined with Victorian terraced houses, the Chesham Building opened in the late 1960s and sits alongside the Horton Building.
In 2011, a £6m extension to the Horton Building created purpose-built clinical wards and specialist health teaching facilities for realistic clinical training.
AI for All
The University is leading the way in using Artificial Intelligence to transform lives, from revolutionising healthcare and tackling climate change to strengthening economic resilience and advancing the exploration of space.
Building on our strong reputation in AI, we continue to evolve our teaching and research to develop highly skilled graduates equipped to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.
Biomedical Engineering
As pioneers in healthcare innovation, we were the first UK university to offer Medical Engineering (1996) and Clinical Technology (2001), linking engineering and medicine to improve health and support the NHS.
This legacy continues today, with a £2.2m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship award funding the development of a revolutionary biomaterial that could speed up healing using the body's own movement, reducing the need for invasive surgery, cutting NHS costs and lowering carbon emissions.
Paramedic Science
Developed in collaboration with the Yorkshire Ambulance Service, our innovative Paramedic Science degree is ranked among the best in the UK.
As the only programme of its kind in the UK to offer a salaried sandwich year, it equips our students with exceptional real-world clinical experience, specialist skills, and accelerated career progression ready to serve the NHS and save lives.

Radiography
We have been at the forefront of radiography education and workforce development since the merger of the Bradford and Airedale College of Health in 1995.
As the only university in the UK with an NHS England-accredited diagnostic radiography programme, we are internationally renowned for producing high quality graduates ready to transform patient outcomes and shape the future of healthcare in the UK and beyond.
