The University of Bath received the Royal Charter in 1966 and has since become a state university near the English city of Bath, with around 15,000 students. The institution is called a campus university.

Even if the university is very young, she is now one of the top UK universities and is now also in the rankings of the Guardian and the Times of the top ten of UK universities.

History

The history of the institution dates back to the year 1856, when in Bristol under the name " Bristol Trade School " technical school was founded. Since 1885 the School of the Society of Merchant Venturers belonged to and was called the "Merchant Venturers ' Technical College ". 1907 in Bath, a neighboring town of Bristol, founded the " Bath School of Pharmacy ," which was in 1927 part of the Bristol Engineering Colleges. In 1949, the " Bristol Education Authority ", the inspectorate about the college and it was called then " Bristol College of Technology ", and from 1960, " Bristol College of Science and Technology" as the school oversight changed to the British Ministry of Education. In the former property of the College is the City of Bristol College today. Efforts in the early 1960s to improve the state university education enabled the college the way to the attainment of university status. The city of Bristol was unable to provide a suitable site for the associated expansion of the school. In a joint compromise between school leadership and ministry, therefore, the establishment of the new university was decided to " Claverton Down", where construction began in 1964 and was finished in 1966, although in the following decades or more additional buildings, dislocated part, followed.

Discoveries of recent years have shown that focused on the establishment of a College of Oxford University for discussion on the present site in the 19th century.
