The University of Luton merged with De Montfort University’s Bedford campus on 1 August 2006 and became the University of Bedfordshire. Although a new University, it still remains an institution with a rich heritage. The Bedford campus dates back to 1882, which was the founding of the Bedford Training College for Teachers, and the Luton campus has academic roots that date back to 1904. The University of Bedfordshire has approximately 16,000 students and 1,200 members of staff, making it the largest university in the county. The University has recently invested £36m into improving both the Bedford and Luton campuses and the facilities that each offers. As a result of this, the University has been placed third in the country for Media related courses, and 12th for Sports Science courses for 2007, according to the Guardian newspaper, UK.

As part of the development, £2m has been spent on the business school. Students on Business courses now have access to unique, state-of-the-art facilities during their studies - the University is now the first and only institution within the UK to offer such exclusive leading-edge equipments and resources.
