Vice-Chancellor Professor Brian Cantor said: "The University of Bradford continues to forge ahead in the quality of courses we teach, the experience we offer to our students and the impact our research has right across the world. To enjoy one of the biggest rises in the Complete University Guide among UK institutions is testament to the outstanding work we do and a fitting achievement in our 50th anniversary year."
