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. This article is about the English city. ... The Society of Merchant Venturers (or just the Merchant Venturers) is a private charitable organisation in the English city of Bristol, which dates back to the 13th century. ...

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.

In 1963, the government completed an inquiry into the state of higher education in the United Kingdom. This was known as the Robbins Committee report. It was this report that paved the way for the college (along with a number of other institutions) to assume university status.

Construction of a purpose-built campus in Bath began in earnest 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.

Campus and facilities

The Parade, a central pedestrian thoroughfare connecting most academic blocks.

The university's main campus is located on Claverton Down, two kilometres from 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 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 universities, were constructed in a functional, modernistic style using concrete, although such designs were later derided for lacking the charm of the Victorian red-brick universities or the ancient and medieval ones. In Bath, there is a particular contrast between the concrete campus and the Georgian style architecture of the World Heritage City of Bath.

The Eastern part of the campus is dominated by the Sports Training Village, built originally 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 a number of 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 incubation 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.

Academics and courses

The university's major academic strengths have traditionally been the physical sciences, mathematics, engineering and technology. Today, the university is strong in management, humanities and the social sciences. Courses place a strong emphasis on vocational education; with many industry links, the university offers and 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.

Future expansion

Claverton Down

• The university continues to upgrade its Claverton Down campus with major new teaching blocks opening every other year. 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 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 [5]. 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.^[11]

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^[12] but had met with Government approval.^[13] The University withdrew from the project in March 2007 citing "prevailing planning and funding conditions".^[14]
