“Given the smaller than average class sizes, I get the opportunity to provide a bespoke and very practical

experience in my teaching. I enjoy being able to hone those crucial skills that are required for all students

when they move into employment, and I love that when a student graduates, I know their back story,

and how hard they have worked to accomplish their degree. From a lecturer’s perspective, there is no

better feeling than seeing your students succeed.”––

Zaman KalaLecturer | LLB Law

The location is just a short walk from the main campus, and is close to both road and rail links. Plenty of parking means that those who drive can leave their car in a secure area as there is 24/7 security and CCTV surveillance. There are also accessible ground-floor rooms for disabled students.

Alongside Orlando Village, you’ll also find private accommodation, if this is something you’d be looking to explore, speak to our Student Advisors see p38 for contact details.

“There are plenty of options for you when coming to Bolton for your studies. You can find yourself a place in

“I am currently studying a qualification in customer service and am hoping to progress onto a business admin qualification as well.

Alliance Learning (ConnectED) fitted my traits to a job that was right for me by finding out about me personally, before I went to any interviews.

Deciding which University to attend is a big and important decision, which is why we recommend attending an Open Day as it is the best way to get a touch and feel for your chosen University. You can speak to our passionate lecturers, hear from the students, tour the facilities, and listen to talks about studying at Bolton.

By visiting our campus, you can get to grips with what it is like to be a Bolton student. At the end of your visit, you’ll know everything you need to know about studying with us and discover why we’re voted No.1 for Student Satisfaction.

If you want to get an understanding of what daily life is like for our students, why not join an ‘Access All Areas’ event. Sign-up and get the opportunity to take part in mini-lectures, tours and discover the support our students receive. Fill out the booking form, and we look forward to welcoming you to the University of Bolton.
