The last few years Lancaster University has been expanding rapidly. New buildings, more staff and better infrastructure. I’ve been here for 4 years now and the campus is continuously expanding, old buildings are either demolished or renovated and it feels like the university standard is getting better and better.

I am really glad and proud to see Lancaster joining the top-10 Universities in the UK, amongst or even surpassing some other “older players”.

Some links:

• The Times Good University Guide 2011: Lists Lancaster University 10th
• Guardian University League Table 2011: Lists Lancaster University 6th
• The Independent Good University Guide 2011: Lists Lancaster University 8th

While Lancaster is not a Cambridge yet, the University has managed to surpass other older institutions such as UCL, Imperial and Kings. This also shutters the belief that you have to be an old University to dominate the top-10, since Lancaster managed to join the elite 10 in less than 50 years.

Patet omnibus veritas
