The University of the Built Environment launched

The University’s vision is to be the centre of excellence for built environment education. This new name reinforces that ambition and highlights our expanded scope. The University now has over 4000 students and offers professional degrees and apprenticeships across disciplines such as construction, real estate, planning, sustainability and architecture. In addition to the industries we serve, we are committed to research, partnerships and collaboration, as recently demonstrated by the merger with The London School of Architecture.

As an institution, they remain grounded in their Royal Charter and deeply connected to their history. With a new name, they look ahead—committed to shaping the future of the built environment.

This is more than a name change; it is a statement of intent. It marks a bold new chapter for their community and network. In embracing this new identity, they reaffirm their mission to lead, innovate, and inspire across every aspect of the built environment.
