University of Bedfordshire - Luton Campus

The University of Bedfordshire is based in Luton and Bedford, the two largest towns in the English county of Bedfordshire with an additional campus in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, for students studying Nursing and Midwifery. It has more than 24,000 students, over 2,000 staff and a turnover of over £130m [2]. Nearly 3,000 international students study with the University [3] and it has a global network of 70,000 alumni.[4] The University was created by the merger of the University of Luton and the Bedford campus of De Montfort University on 1 August 2006 following approval by the Privy Council.[5] In 2012 it achieved Fair Trade status. [6][7]

History

The University of Bedfordshire is made up of a number of higher education institutions with histories dating back into the Nineteenth Century. The University’s two main campuses are in Luton (in the town centre), and Bedford (on Polhill Avenue). Both have been recently extensively modernised with new teaching and social facilities and new on-campus accommodation.[8]

Luton Modern School was founded in the 1890s and the Luton Modern School and Technical Institute opened its doors in 1908 on the Park Square site still used by the present University today. This became Luton College of Higher Education with the merger of Luton College of Technology and Putteridge Bury College of Education in the mid-1970s.[5]With the passing of the Further and Higher Education Act, 1992 it converted to university status in 1993 and will celebrate its twentieth anniversary in 2013.

The Bedford campus was originally the Bedford Training College for Teachers, founded in 1882 and Bedford Physical Training College founded in 1903. These merged with a further education college to become the Bedford College of Higher Education in 1976. In 1994 the higher education parts of the college merged with De Montfort University (based in Leicester). [5]

In December 2005, the University announced that it was taking over the Bedford campus of De Montfort University purchasing the site for £15 million. With permission from the Privy Council, it changed its name to the University of Bedfordshire on 1 August 2006. [5][9]

The University has a third campus based at Putteridge Bury, a neo-Elizabethan country mansion located on the edge of Luton on the A505 road to Hitchin. The campus is situated in approximately thirty acres of landscaped gardens. Putteridge Bury can be traced back to Edward the Confessor's time and has links to the Domesday Book. The current building was completed in 1911 and was designed by architects Sir Ernest George and Alfred Yeats in the style of Chequers, having had various redesigns and rebuilds over the years. The campus is home to the University's postgraduate Business School as well as the University’s Conference Centre.[5]

There are also two dedicated campuses for the teaching of nursing and midwifery degrees at Butterfield Park on the outskirts of Luton and at the Buckinghamshire campus at Oxford House in Aylesbury. [5]

Faculties

The University of Bedfordshire has four faculties:Creative Arts, Technologies and Science;Education and Sport;Health and Social Sciences;and the University of Bedfordshire Business School [10]

Academic Reputation

In 2004, Luton University's then high drop-out rate, and proposals to relax the consequences for students failing second-year exams, had led the Sunday Telegraph to ask "Is this the worst university in Britain?"[11] Luton's vice-chancellor responded by noting the challenges inherent in its mission as an access institution to offer the life-changing experience of higher education to people from families with little or no experience of university and for whom university is not an obvious destination after school; and drew attention to its teaching quality, which had been rated 14th out of 121 similar institutions the previous year by The Times.[12]

However, The Sunday Times awarded the University of Luton the title of Best New University in 2004 (prior to the purchase of the Bedford campus and rebranding).[13] [14] hold The QAA conducted a thorough institutional audit of the University as a whole in 2005 (prior to the merger of the University), which resulted in the audit team’s questioning of the academic standards of its awards and its lack of confidence in the university's quality standards.[15] However, after the audit was taken the QAA was provided with information that indicates that appropriate action was taken by the University in response to the findings of this report. As a result the audit was signed off in July 2007.[16]

In 2007 the University of Bedfordshire was short-listed for the Times Higher Education Supplement's University of the Year 2007.[17]

In 2008 Professor Les Ebdon said that he had accepted voluntary redundancy from 30 staff members. The university said that less than half were academic staff. Professor Ebdon said: "I don't know of any university in the East of England which isn't making some adjustment to staff numbers. Most of us have squeezed other expenditures as much as we can. Staffing is the area left where expenditure can be taken out, and it is the biggest cost." According to the same article "Relative to many other universities, Bedfordshire spends a low proportion of its income on staff."[18]

Bedfordshire was ranked 71 of 114 British universities in The Times Good University Guide league table, released in June 2009,[19] 72 out of 113 in The Independent Complete University Guide,[20] and 88 out of 117 in The Guardian University Guide.[21] The Guardian's league tables are compiled mainly on the basis of teaching data (staff/student ratio, job prospects, inclusiveness), and The Times's also include data on research ratings and the percentage of students who complete a degree.

The university has been criticised for its association with the Institute for Optimum Nutrition,[22][23] an unacredited and controversial organisation whose founder, Patrick Holford's advocacy of vitamin C as better than conventional drugs to treat AIDS was described as 'very scary' by the British Dietetic Association.[24]

According to the THES in 2008 the university threatened legal action against a web site after one of its course was labelled "shocking" because of its staff-to-student ratio.[25]

After the QAA audit conducted in 2009 the University was awarded a “Confidence” rating.[26]

[32] The University is also ranked 88 (out of 116) in The Times Good University Guide, a rise of 18 places. The Times reports that the percentage of graduates gaining a first or upper second class degree has risen from 44.4 per cent last year to 53.6 per cent and there has been an increase in spending per student by the University on services and facilities, from £1,368 in 2011 to £2,004 in 2012. [33]

In 2012 the University of Bedfordshire received a First Class Award and was ranked 36th out of 145 in the People and Planet Green League 2012 – rising 17 places from the previous year.[6] In 2012 the University also received accreditation as a Fair Trade University.[35]
