University College Birmingham

University College Birmingham (UCB) is based in the heart of the UK’s second biggest city, with over 10,000 students from around 90 countries, University College Birmingham is highly respected by employers and industry for providing career-focused education and training.

We specialize in vocational courses in both the higher education and further education sectors and continue to grow our portfolio of apprenticeships.

We offer a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses, as well as some higher-level apprenticeships. Our reputation for excellence means the University is popular with international students and this year we were delighted to win the international category at the Whatuni Student Choice Awards 2023.

We are committed to providing the best facilities for all our students and have invested over £200 million in our campuses to enhance the student experience and ensure students have the very best, practical environments for their training.

Campuses located in the heart of the city

The practical facilities across our campuses – all developed with real industry in mind – are fast-growing, while we have also invested £6.1 million into fresh-thinking learning support spaces, giving you the very best environment to expand your mind. 

Sustainable and easy to navigate, each campus has its own distinct character and has been designed specifically to enhance the student experience.

We are also right in the center of the city’s business and hotel district, opening up no end of placement and work opportunities for our students.
