Bournemouth University

Whatever your time with us has in store for you, it’ll be an exciting journey – from meeting lifelong friends in halls, to your experience on placement, exploring the local area or joining a club or society. 

Run by students, for students. SUBU (Students' Union at Bournemouth University) is here to make your university experience better. It helps you make friends, be heard, find things to do and offer support when you need it. You can become a SUBU member when you start with us. Where you take the relationship from there is up to you – but you can get involved as much or as little as you like.

SUBU’s biggest department is Student Opportunities – dedicated to bringing you a mindboggling range of clubs, groups and academic societies to try, so that you can pursue your interests with like-minded people

We have two campuses at Bournemouth University – Talbot and Lansdowne.

Our great teaching is complemented by industry-standard facilities and support. We offer fantastic collaborative working spaces. Laptops you can borrow by the hour. Beach hut themed Technobooths and well-stocked libraries for getting assignments done, and after a long day you can relax on our rooftop cafes to help you wind down.

Talbot Campus is home to new TV studios, editing suites, sound stage, audio studios, PC labs, screening room, a motion capture and green screen facility, and cross-faculty collaborative learning spaces.

Lansdowne Campus is mainly used by students in the Faculty of Health & Social Sciences. Our new Bournemouth Gateway Building is home to simulation suites including an operating theatre, hospital wards, a maternity birthing room and residential flat for care scenarios – as well as an MRI scanner.
