BPP University London

In September 2007, BPP University made history by becoming the first publicly owned company in the UK to obtain degree awarding powers.

This process involved making a detailed application to the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) for Higher Education in the United Kingdom, which acted on behalf of the Office for Students. BPP University’s unique approach is education that is academically rigorous but also grounded in practical application that is highly relevant to our students, stakeholders and industry.

It has around 15,000 students, studying across 13 centres, in eight locations across England and online around the world. 70% are full-time, over 64% are on postgraduate programmes, while 80% study face-to-face. 92.4% of our undergraduates went on to get graduate-level jobs or were in further study within six months after graduating. This rose to 95.6% for our postgraduates.
