Buckingham welcomes wider scale fast-track degrees

1 March 2017

Graduation 2015The University of Buckingham, which pioneered two-year degrees when it set up just over 40 years ago, welcomes the introduction of fast-track degrees on a wider scale as an incentive for innovation and diversity.

Buckingham has been recognised as a quality provider of two-year degrees and was awarded The Times and Sunday Times University of the Year for Teaching Quality in 2016. It has also topped the National Student Survey (NSS) for student satisfaction for the last decade.

Vice-Chancellor Sir Anthony Seldon said: “We have been offering the best quality two-year degrees for more than 40 years and our students tell us year after year that they are happy and impressed with their studies here. Graduate Employability rankings reveal we are leading the way when it comes to getting a job.

“I really hope that the quality and diversity of courses that Buckingham offers can be replicated when other providers set up courses.”
