Welcome to The Albert Gubay Business School
The world is changing in unpredictable ways and it can be hard for people to understand how they can ever make a real difference at Bangor Business School.
It's our core belief that with the right education and the right skill set you can drive positive change across the globe.
We're confident of this because our research, staff and our graduates are making an impact wherever they go.
Taking real world business challenges into their own hands, whether that's using data analytics to drive the efficiency of a local High Street, developing concrete sustainable policies for the tourism industry, investigating the relationships between brand and littering, analysing consumer behavior and helping people to make decisions that are better for their health and the environment.
This is the place to make a real difference, and it's also a beautiful place to do it.
Bangor Business School is where tradition meets innovation, with state-of-the-art facilities like our Bloomberg terminals, just a short walk from the Shankland reading room.
The growth and development of the business school is no accident, we're one of the longest established providers of banking and finance teaching in the world. Our focus on employability and future skills is key.
Today we're working with businesses, government and charities, locally in Wales throughout the United Kingdom and across the world. To improve the quality and scope of our research, but also to provide an excellent education through field trips and exposure to diverse industry experts providing the skills that employers actually want.
Bangor Business School is more than just a place to study it's a place where future leaders are made, where innovation thrives and where global challenges are addressed head on.
We are the school that means business, and we would like you to join us in shaping the future.
