中文介绍

白金汉大学成立于1973年，由时任教育部长的玛格丽特·撒切尔领导

1983年，她在该校晋升为大学的过程中发挥了关键作用，使其成为自1916年大学拨款委员会成立以来英国第一所私立大学。1992年从政界退休后，撒切尔成为该大学的第二任校长，她于1998年离职

它在六个学院提供学士、硕士和博士学位：科学和医学；商业艺术和语言；人文学科法律和教育。后者是英国一些最杰出的教育学家的家园，包括已故的Chris Woodhead（英国教育标准局前局长）

与其他大学不同，它提供传统学位的时间比平时更短，因为学生在两年内学习八个学期，而不是三年内学习九个学期，这意味着他们在两年内获得了相当于三年的学位。一些学校，如人文学科，提供了一种混合的时间尺度方法，例如两年强化模式或通常的三年模式

白金汉有两个主要景点：亨特街（与邻近的尚多斯路综合体）和距离酒店很短的维尼公园。该大学距离伦敦很近，距离牛津和剑桥等距离，靠近M1和M40。开车只需20分钟即可到达米尔顿凯恩斯中央车站

著名校友包括剧作家兼导演Bader Ben Hirsi、Great Yarmouth的国会议员、保守党前主席Brandon Lewis和Milton Keynes North的国会议员Mark Lancaster

英文介绍

The University of Buckingham was created as a university college in 1973, overseen by Margaret Thatcher, who at the time, was education secretary.

She played a key role in its elevation to university status in 1983, which made it the UK’s first private university since the University Grants Committee was set up in 1916. After retiring from politics in 1992, Thatcher became the university's second chancellor, a post she departed from in 1998.

It offers bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees at six schools of study: science and medicine; business; arts and languages; humanities; law and education. The latter is home to some of the sector’s most distinguished educationalists in the UK, including the late Chris Woodhead (former head of Ofsted).

Unlike other universities, it offers traditional degrees in a time frame that is shorter than usual as students study eight terms over two years, as opposed to nine terms over three, which means they cover the equivalent of a three-year degree in two years. Some schools, such as humanities, offer a mixed approach to the timescales, for example the two-year intensive model or the usual three-year model.

There are two main sites in Buckingham: Hunter Street (with the adjacent Chandos Road Complex) and Verney Park, which is a short drive away. The university is within easy reach of London, equidistant between Oxford and Cambridge, and close to the M1 and M40. Milton Keynes central station is 20 minutes’ drive away.

Notable alumni include playwright and director Bader Ben Hirsi, MP for Great Yarmouth and former chairman of the Conservative Party Brandon Lewis and MP for Milton Keynes North Mark Lancaster.
