Vice-Chancellor’s introductionFor BU to thrive in this very competitive world, it needed to restate it commitment to academic excellence in an academically rich environment and to plan afresh for the future. I am delighted to say that these plans are coming to fruition. Over the past year, BU has grown in confidence as an innovative, international institution offering high quality academic programmes geared to the professions. Its student centred learning environment emphasises intellectual achievement and employability and it has become a University that is clearly proud of its strength in research, enterprise and professional practice and the standing of its centres of academic excellence. BU is totally committed to preparing each and every one of its students to fulfil their potential and become effective lifelong learners, able to take their place as significant contributors to the global economy.
