The University of Buckingham Home of the two-year degree, The University of Buckingham is ranked Top 5 for Lecturers & Teaching Quality (Whatuni Student Choice Awards, 2025)

Home of the two-year degree, The University of Buckingham is ranked Top 5 for Lecturers & Teaching Quality and Top 10 for Student Support (Whatuni Student Choice Awards, 2025). At Buckingham, we offer students the opportunity to study a degree their way, giving a range of options on how to study, and September and January start dates for almost all courses.​

Our University offers two-year degrees and 4.5-year Medicine degrees, so you can use the extra time to focus on what matters most to you. You can combine your undergraduate two-year degree with either a foundation or postgraduate programme, finishing in just three years. This means you will graduate sooner – you could begin your career a year earlier, go on to further study, volunteer, take a gap year or even explore the world. We pride ourselves on being a small, friendly environment to study and live. We keep class sizes small, so you won’t get lost in the crowd. You can develop your ideas and passions in a truly supportive environment at Buckingham. For our larger cohorts, such as Education, we offer flexible and accessible online study options which attract over 1000 teachers and school leaders to Buckingham each year. We also launched the UK’s first private Medical School, accredited by the General Medical Council (GMC). Our academics are internationally recognised as pioneers in their field. They incorporate their discoveries and insights directly into your degree, so you’ll graduate with the latest industry knowledge. Graduates enjoy strong employment outcomes and are well prepared for future success. Our beautiful riverside campus in Buckingham is only 20 minutes from Milton Keynes Central Station and a short drive from Bicester, Aylesbury, Banbury and Northampton. There is free parking on-site, and we are within easy reach of London and Oxford.

The University of Buckingham's School of Law recently welcomed academics, practitioners and researchers from around the world to its third Annual International Conference on Human Rights, Sustainable Development and the Rule of Law 🌍

It featured a keynote address from Santiago A. Canton, who explored the evolving challenges facing international human rights law, the role of the United Nations, and the vital relationship between human rights, sustainable development and the rule of law in an increasingly complex global landscape.

With delegates joining from countries including the UK, Kenya, Brazil, Pakistan, Thailand, Germany, Egypt, Zimbabwe and South Sudan, the conference provided a truly international platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration and critical debate.

Through a programme of insightful presentations and discussions, participants shared research and perspectives on some of the most pressing issues facing the international community today.

A huge thank you to all speakers, contributors and delegates for making this year's conference such a success 💫
