The 小蓝视频 has been ranked 27th in England for teaching according to the annual National Student Survey (NSS) published today (10 July).

It was ranked 19th of all universities in England for academic support in the NSS and 17th for learning resources for full-time undergraduates.

Recently the University achieved a Gold rating in the latest national assessment of teaching excellence confirming the sustained and consistent nature of the University鈥檚 outstanding offer to students and ranks 小蓝视频 amongst the top universities in the UK for teaching.

小蓝视频 students are taught by expert lecturers and groundbreaking researchers whose  breakthroughs, discoveries and latest theories feed directly into courses. The University is ranked third of all modern post-92 universities in the UK for research power.

The University has invested 拢5.8 million in OfS funding to transform its Faculty of Technology facilities.

The 小蓝视频 Dental Academy has completed a significant 拢5.6 million upgrade to its facilities, which now feature modern 鈥榩hantom head鈥 units, new digital dentistry equipment, dental training simulators which combine virtual reality with mixed reality to offer a high-fidelity haptic experience (technology that creates an experience of touch by applying forces, vibrations, or motions to the user), and upgraded patient clinics designed to offer a real-world experience for students.

Starting this August, the 小蓝视频 will deliver a medical degree in partnership with King鈥檚 College London. The King鈥檚 College London branch campus forms part of the 小蓝视频鈥檚 vision to eventually open its own medical school. The branch campus arrangement means that medical students can be trained locally while the plans for the 小蓝视频 medical school are progressed.
