The Arts University College at Bournemouth
Established in 1885, The Arts University College at Bournemouth has developed into one of Britain’s leading specialist university-sector institutions offering courses in art, design and media. The Institute’s single campus consists of a series of purpose-built studios accommodating approximately 2000 students on full-time courses. Each course has an allocated number of places for UK and international students, which helps to ensure that all overseas students integrate with British students as much as possible. The majority of programmes have comparatively small year groups, ensuring that students have a greater chance of getting the attention and support that they expect and need. There are currently approximately 260 overseas students from 55 different countries studying at the Institute.
