University of Bath
University of Bath, Claverton Down, BA2 7AY Bath, United Kingdom
Description:
Bath is one of the smaller universities in Britain, supporting a hard-working, hard-playing community. There is a predominant sense of participation across campus - social functions are usually sell-out affairs; music, drama and the arts are all flourishing; and there is a justifiably proud record of achievement in sport.
