A world first in higher education, UCFB offers undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in the football business and wider sport and events industries. UCFB trains and educates individuals for roles in these industries. Taught in and around our world-class and unique campuses at Wembley Stadium, London, and the Etihad Stadium, Manchester, students become graduates and move on to first class employment within an industry they have a passion for. Students will learn while overlooking the turf of these two famous stadia, providing a truly inspirational setting to live and learn in. On top of this unparalleled access, students also have the opportunity to use further world-class sporting facilities during their time at UCFB. We're proud to say 93 percent of UCFB graduates are in full time employment, and two thirds of those work in the football and sport industries with bodies such as The Football Association, Manchester United, Stoke City, Opta and EDP Soccer in New Jersey. As well as learning from our band of experienced, industry based academics, students have the opportunity to apply for truly amazing work experience placements in the UK and abroad. Previous students have worked at football clubs in Brazil, the UEFA Champions League final and England international games at Wembley. Thanks to our unique Complementary Curriculum and Executive Guest Speaker Series, students also get the weekly opportunity to hear from industry professionals, ask them questions and gain key contacts for their future careers. UCFB is proud to boast partnerships including The League Managers Association, The FA and the Real Madrid Graduate School. The expansion of football and sport means new jobs are being created on a daily basis, and from the moment students step into one of our incredible campuses, we say: "Welcome to your future, in the world of sport."
