The first phase of building work on the campus was completed in 1909 under the auspices of the esteemed architect Sir Aston Webb. Birmingham is constantly developing and evolving in its desire to become a leading global university. This is being achieved through the enhanced research power and reach; the distinctiveness of the exceptional student experience; the breadth and depth of the academic portfolio; the size and the extent of its global networks.
