University of Bath

The University of Bath was conceded college status in 1966 by Royal Charter, however our roots can be followed back to the Bristol Trade School - a specialized school built in 1856. In 1885 the school was renamed the Merchant Venturers' Technical College and in 1929 the Bath School of Pharmacy got to be a piece of the school. By 1960 the school had turned into the Bristol College of Science and Technology and, taking after the Robbins Report of 1963, which prescribed prompt extension of colleges, started to take a gander at picking up college status. With the school quickly extending and no suitable site accessible in Bristol, a chance discussion between the school vital and the Director of Education in Bath prompted a consent to furnish the school with another home in Claverton Down, Bath. The principal expanding on grounds was finished in 1965 (turning into the building now known as 4 South), only a year prior to the Royal Charter was conceded.
