Uni awarded top guide accolade

The University of Bath has been recognised as University of the Year in the Sunday Times Good University Guide 2023. The institution has also been once again named the best university in the South West.

This year sees the institution rise by one place to eighth overall in the country, after finishing ninth in the 2022 Guide. Its University of the Year award comes as a result of their ‘improvements in almost every measure.’

The university ranks fourth for undergraduate university experience and fifth for graduate prospects, with more than than 90 percent in highly skilled jobs or further study 15 months after leaving. Bath’s course completion rate (96.2 percent) is the sixth-best in the country.

Bath MP Wera Hobhouse said: “My warmest congratulations to everyone at the University of Bath on this outstanding achievement. This wonderful honour is well deserved.”
