For over 100 years LSBU has been educating students and been a strong part of our local landscape. We, like the city around us, have had to evolve so we know all about progress and innovation. We've invested £47 million into our campus, set in the heart of London, to allow us to continue to provide the best student facilities. The first stage of improvements was completed last year and our new building, K2, now houses our Faculty of Health and Social Care and Department of Education. The building provides general teaching rooms, conference spaces and a cafeteria plus health skills laboratories and staff offices.
K2 was built with sustainability very much in mind and houses the Centre for Efficient and Renewable Energy in Buildings (CEREB). This cross-university project, launching this Spring, provides a focus and location for research, teaching and demonstration of environmentally sustainable energy systems in buildings.
Our aim is to provide fair and equal access to a university education to all those who have the potential to succeed or benefit from it.
London South Bank University welcomes applications from motivated students with appropriate qualifications, both traditional and non-traditional, academic and vocational. Our students come from diverse backgrounds and have a whole range of different qualifications both from the UK and overseas. We consider applicants to our courses solely on the basis of their merit, ability and potential. Applications from mature students who have no formal qualifications may be considered provided they have relevant work experience.
We will consider all information contained within the application form, or produced at interview or audition. This might include past academic performance, predicted grades, personal statements, academic and personal references and any other evidence of skills, aptitude and potential to succeed.
Our admissions policy complies with relevant legislation and is guided by the principles outlined by the Admissions to Higher Education Steering Group, "Fair admissions to higher education: recommendations for good practice".
