Buckinghamshire New University - Director Of Estates

BNU BASED AT PINEWOOD STUDIOS Our small and growing site at the world renowned Pinewood Studies enables our students studying creative courses linked to the film and TV industries to learn right in the heart of this exciting industry.

AYLESBURY CAMPUS Our newest campus continues our vision of offering education that equips students with the skills that employers are looking for. The new campus provides access to degree level courses and professional development programmes, allowing individuals to access employer-led education and training locally, and for employers to work in partnership with us to meet their needs. Based at the head of the Grand Union Canal basin, next to the Waterside Theatre in Aylesbury, the campus includes specialist and general teaching facilities.

MI SSENDEN ABBEY Missenden Abbey is a dedicated conference and events venue set in ten acres of beautiful grounds in Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire. This unique part of the Buckinghamshire New University estate is also used as a training facility and hosts BNU- accredited postgraduate and professional short courses. Missenden Abbey was originally founded in 1133 by a group of Augustinian Canons from Arrouaise in Northern France. After being forfeited to the crown following the dissolution of the monastery and changing hands a number of times throughout its impressive 800- year history, it became an impressive part of the Buckinghamshire New University estate in the 1990s. The University has ambitious plans to relaunch Missenden Abbey as a high end boutique hotel providing opportunities for our students to gain valuable work experience on our international hotel management programmes.

UXBRIDGE CAMPUS Our Uxbridge Campus opened its doors to students in 2009. It is the home of our prestigious nursing and health care practice courses and is based in the centre of Uxbridge. The School of Nursing & Allied Health benefits from the fantastic facilities this campus offers, including an impressive range of specialist medical equipment and high-tech learning facilities such as clinical skills rooms and simulation manikins. The campus is contained within one building and students enjoy the same friendly and inclusive atmosphere that flows throughout the University. Permanent representatives of Bucks Students’ Union are based at Uxbridge, and it also has its own café. A shuttle bus runs regularly between our High Wycombe and Uxbridge campuses, ensuring students are able to benefit from facilities on both sites.
