University of Bedfordshire

Our Vision"To be known for taking global business education, research and practice in imaginative new directions" We are daring to be different. This vision is founded on this difference. The imaginative new futures for business education, research and practice will be co-created with our staff, students and other stakeholders and will deliver not only academic impact but also a practice impact in our classrooms and communities alike. This vision reflects our existing School strengths, strategic space opportunities in the crowded and overly competitive and branded business school market and provides staff good opportunity to create a business school that is different. In sum, we will use this vision to drive excellence, change, growth and investment within the School."To develop creative mindsets that practice intelligently and lead imaginative futures for our campuses, communities and cities". Why Us?Our view on business education is international and practice driven. Business practitioners face problems unique to their organisations which are often complex and ambiguous – particularly in the context of global/international issues. Theoretical academic models may not always apply. It is here that practice intelligence becomes important.
