Open Days & Visits
Before you apply
You, your family and friends are welcome to visit the University. Bath's Open Days provide the ideal opportunity not only to see the campus but also meet with academic staff. However if you are not able to come on either of these days you may visit independently. Information for schools & colleges.
Undergraduate Open Days
University wide open days are held twice a year. These are for people interested in finding out more about our courses, and who are considering applying to us. In addition, many departments hold their own open days. Generally these are for potential students who have already applied to the University and are by invitiation only. Please contact the relevant department for more information.
The next general undergraduate open day will be held in June 2010 (date to be confirmed)

Individual Visits
The University of Bath is open to visitors on weekdays and weekends and you are welcome to visit the campus at any time without the need to register your visit. It may not be possible to see individual departments as Admissions Tutors are likely to be teaching or researching, but you are welcome to contact the departments to see if any members of staff are available.
