Our History

The University can trace its origins back to 1898, when the earliest of its parts were formed as the Bath Academy of Art.  The Newton Park campus was first leased by Bath Teacher Training College in 1947 from the Duchy of Cornwall.  Bath College of Higher Education was formed in 1975 from the merger of two colleges; Bath College of Education and Newton Park College of Education.
