BPP University

History

BPP was established in 1976 by Alan Brierley, Richard Price and Charles Prior to provide specialist training for accountancy qualifications. Pioneering the use of new word processing technology they created specialist study learning texts for those sitting chartered accountancy exams. They quickly grew, adding classroom tuition and opened learning centres around the UK and in Europe.

BPP University offers a wide range of modern, relevant postgraduate programmes and professional qualifications to help you realise your ambitions and tailor your learning to your specific interests.

We are dedicated to preparing you for a professional career. We offer a strong commercial approach, within a business culture designed to help you stand out in the workplace after you graduate. Our programmes are designed in partnership with employers and respected professionals in the fields of law, business, finance and health.

Research

As a leading education provider, scholarship and research are also central to our mission. Articulating, developing and supporting scholarship and research activities receive our full commitment.

As a professionally focused University, we aspire to contribute to the development of the professions by delivering the best and most appropriate scholarship and research in each of our Schools’ contexts. BPP University fully recognises the various types of research and levels of evidence required and ensures that all its scholarly activity and research is of direct relevance to professional practice.
