As a global civic University, Plymouth is balancing a regional focus with a genuinely international outlook and reach.

PBS has an international reputation in business resilience, logistics and supply chain – including shipping – as well as the economic and social regeneration of place.

Its marketing courses are ranked number one in the UK, and the school is working towards Small Business Chartership, as well as accreditation that will see Plymouth benchmarked against the top 5% of Business Schools in the world.

With ambitious plans to double learner numbers over five years, PBS is delivering creative business education and thinking differently.

And the school’s move to a new building, which was completed in December ready for staff and students to move in from January, marks the start of an exciting new era.

Doug Lloyd, regional director of Kier Construction’s Western & Wales business, said:

“We have used our expertise in building high quality educational facilities to refurbish the Fitzroy Building to the exceptional standard it deserves. We worked closely with The University of Plymouth, our consultants and supply chain to deliver the school on time and on budget, and we look forward to seeing the building benefit the region’s business students, with its modern learning spaces, for decades to come.”
