Our Community

Our community is made up of people from a range of social and cultural backgrounds, brought together in a world class learning environment that celebrates both our proud heritage and exciting future.

Both our impressive historic Headingley Campus and modern city centre hub offer award winning facilities, great resources and extensive support needed to allow both students and staff to thrive. And it’s enabled us to become the only university in the UK to hold both the Customer Service Excellence (CSE) and IIP (Gold) accreditations across our whole institution.

Our Impact

  • We place huge importance on our role as an anchor institution for Leeds and the wider region, maximising the benefit our presence delivers directly and indirectly to our communities.
  • Leeds Beckett makes a significant impact to the economy, through our teaching and learning, our research and the value of our spending.
  • We commissioned London Economics, leading specialist economic and policy consultants, to analyse the university’s economic impact on the UK economy.
  • Every year, the university delivers a £1.43bn impact on the UK economy. This represents a return of more than £6 for every £1 spent on university operations.
  • Every student completing a first degree experiences a net earnings benefit of £67,000 and delivers a net benefit to the public purse of £60,000.
  • This economic benefit sits alongside the broader impact of the thousands of highly skilled graduates we produce every year, and our world-leading research making a difference to the major challenges of the 21st Century such as climate change, health and inequality.
