Student Journey

The University of Bedfordshire is committed to provide an excellent student experience in a vibrant and diverse academic community. We want our students to start their journey motivated and secure, to do well throughout their time with us and to be prepared for future endeavours.

What is the Student Journey?

The 'Student Journey' has been developed and introduced for the academic year 2022/23 to understand the journey that students follow while studying at the University of Bedfordshire. It maps the student experience from applicant to alumni – covering Welcome, adaption, transition activities and service delivery – under the three key themes:

Begin, Thrive and Succeed.

All three themes are not stand alone and do interchange throughout the student journey.

The Student Journey aims to:

• Enable our students to start their journey at all transition points with a sense of belonging, confident in knowing how to access support, systems and key university services.
• Provide our students with the opportunities to develop confidence, skills and experience to thrive during their time at University of Bedfordshire.
• Ensure our students are ready for their next steps by providing them with the opportunities to discover more about themselves and be confident in their future life choices.

What are we currently working on?

The University is engaging with a diverse range of staff and students across the University, with a view to capturing where we are now, reflecting on how we deliver what we do and identifying where we can improve.
