Catching up with Bath Spa University London

Monday, 9 December, 2024

Bath Spa University London (BSUL) is part of BSU’s thriving higher education community. Nestled in the vibrant borough of Hackney, the University centre continues to attract local and international students as they embark on a new chapter in their lives. 

With convenient transport links and strong connections with local industries, BSUL students are able to experience one of the world's most exciting cities.  

Focusing on student employability, the centre aims to provide its students with access to a host of opportunities and activities. With dedicated academic guidance, top facilities and a growing community of curious learners, there are countless events for students and staff to get involved in. 

BSUL unveils Adobe mural at their Hackney Campus

In 2022, Bath Spa University proudly became one of the UK’s first Adobe Creative Campuses, providing students and staff access to top-tier graphic design, video editing, web development, and photography software. Since then, the BSU community has fully embraced Adobe’s offerings, including the opportunity to design a mural for the entrance of BSUL.  

The mural was designed by student Vindya Athkoralalage, using the Adobe suite. Inspired to participate by Senior Lecturer in Marketing and Management, Jaganath Karki, Vindya reflected the theme, ‘What does Adobe and Bath Spa London mean to you?’ in her work. 

BSUL hosts leadership panel discussion   

In November, BSUL celebrated the success of its ‘Building your career portfolio’ event – an engaging panel discussion with CEO of Zamco Recruitment, Sheldon Merriman, BSU Academic, Dr. Dejan Ljubojevic, BSU Employability Coach, Jenny Williams, and chair, Course Director Partnership and Development, Dr. Achila Amarasinge.

During the event, students gained valuable insights into crafting standout CVs, identifying their personal strengths, and utilising university resources to gain a competitive edge in the job market. 

Developing skills with BSUL interactive leadership workshop  

This interactive event was designed to help break down barriers for students. It was led by Professor Osman Khan, an expert in leadership with extensive experience advising the Financial Times Stock Exchange 50 and Fortune 500 companies. 

Participants engaged in discussions and hands-on activities to refine their leadership styles and skills.
