The University of Bath, established in 1966 near Bath, England, has grown into one of the United Kingdom's leading universities, ranking consistently as one of the top 10 universities in major UK league tables. It is one of the members of the 1994 Group of universities, which consist of internationally recognized UK universities with common aims, standards and values.
The main campus is located in a purpose-built development in Claverton Down, two kilometres from the United Nations designated World Heritage City of Bath. The university's major academic strengths are the physical sciences, mathematics and technology, but the University of Bath is becoming increasingly strong in management, humanities and social sciences.
In addition, the university is host to a number of UK's top Olympic athletes. In November 2003, the University of Bath opened the first phase of its massive new sports complex, the English Institute of Sport for South West England. New facilities include eight indoor tennis courts, basketball and netball courts, a large gymnasium, in addition to its existing astroturf football pitches, 50m indoor swimming pool, and athletics track. Its football team, known as Team Bath F.C., play in the semi-professional Southern League and in the 2002/2003 season were the first university team to enter the FA cup since 1880, advancing to the first round proper.
The university is also currently upgrading its existing campus with many new teaching blocks being built; and is also developing a new campus in Oakfield, Swindon which currently offers part-time and community courses.
