Education enhancement

Educational Development and Quality is responsible for supporting the development and implementation of strategies arrived at enhancing the quality of the educational opportunities available to students.

The University's Education Enhancement Strategy (140kb PDF) outlines key themes for enhancing student learning and summarises the educational approach as follows:

Education is our top priority at BU. Our aim is to offer a high quality, transformational education experience that produces self-motivated, self-directed, lifelong learners who are employable in graduate level jobs in an ever-changing world.

Learning at BU is challenging, exciting and rewarding. It is an active, participatory experience, geared to the professions and informed by research. Learners at all levels are encouraged equally to fulfil their potential, with emphasis placed on developing appropriate academic and professional knowledge and skills for success. Technology-rich learning environments provide access to learning resources both on campus and world-wide. Education is delivered by academics who are experts in their subjects and themselves learning: from their research, business engagement and professional practice. They are supported by highly qualified professional staff who use their specialist knowledge to help learners get the most from the libraries, study environments and work opportunities. We recognise too that students learn from each other, and we develop processes and facilities to support and develop these peer learning communities.
