The University receives income from many sources, but by far the largest sum is from tuition fees. Income is used to fund all of the day-to-day activities of the University, including the provision of teaching and support to our students, both through the academic departments they register with and the services that they are able to access (library, learning resources, sports facilities).
The funds are also used to enable longer-term investment projects, ensuring the estate and facilities are up to date, and providing student bursaries.
