Are lectures recorded and placed online along with the power point presentations used? Specifically for Engineering...

Yes each of our Lecturers upload their presentations to a system called Blackboard which is a Student Information Portal.

Lectures aren’t normally recorded however, it’s currently something our Academic Affairs Officer is looking into so it might only be a matter of time before this starts to happen :smile:

I hope you find this information helpful and if you need anything else do let me know.

That is really great! Do you have any data on how diverse the uni is compared to others? Is it more diverse than the norm, less so, or about average?

Also, what proportion of the student population come from the city itself? I read somewhere that this was quite high, with a quite a lot living at home (like they do on the continent) rather than in hall or private rented accommodation?

When it comes to nationalities on campus, Bradford's 15% is slightly less than the sector average of 18%. This positions Bradford in the middle of the table, raking 82nd out of 159 registered Universities.

When it comes to ethnicity diversity, Bradford ranks 4th out of 159 registered Universities with a 57% ratio of its student population belonging to the BME group (Black and Minority Ethnic).

There were some 3,000 UK domiciled Undergraduate students whose permanent address or homes were located within the Bradford district last year, equivalent to 36% of all UK domiciled undergraduate students.

I hope this information helps and if you need anything further do get back in touch.

Used to be one back in my first year (11/12) but disbanded due to a lack of interest - setting one up is fairly easy though, all you need to do is fill out a form with details of interested students (so, name and student number).

All the sports and socs are listed here: http://ubuonline.co.uk/sports/

I will be starting the Business and Management course at UoB in September, but I in the trail for some charitable organisations giving out funds locally and nationally; after reading some article from the Money Saving Expert, Save the Student and others,

I have contacted: UoB, Citizens Advice and Connexions Bradford, but to no avail. I have tried Turn2us, but it doesn't really seem to have proper ones. Sam please help me with this.

Hi Sam, I was wondering if you could tell me the latest time the a99 management centre bus leaves main campus? It's just that the student union website says 17:30 but the main university site says 16:30. Thanks!
