The University of Sussex is a public research university in Falmer, Sussex, England. Its campus is located in the South Downs National Park and is a short distance away from Central Brighton. The university received its Royal Charter in August 1961, the first of the plate glass university generation,[5] and was a founding member of the 1994 Group of research-intensive universities.

It has more than a third of its students enrolled in postgraduate programs and around a third of its staff is drawn from outside the United Kingdom.[6] Sussex has a diverse community of over 17,000 students, with around one in three being foreign students, and over 2,600 academics, representing over 100 different nationalities.[7] The annual income of the institution for 2016–17 was £286.1 million with an expenditure of £270.4 million.[1] In 2017, over 25 thousand students applied to the University of Sussex, with around five thousand joining the institution.

The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2018 placed Sussex 147th in the world overall and 39th in the world for Social Sciences.[8] Sussex is particularly known for its Humanities and Social Sciences departments, with its Development studies program being placed at number 1 globally in the QS World University Ranking.[9]

Sussex counts 5 Nobel Prize winners, 15 Fellows of the Royal Society, 9 Fellows of the British Academy, 24 fellows of the Academy of Social Sciences and a winner of the Crafoord Prize among its faculty. By 2011, many of its faculty members had also received the Royal Society of Literature Prize, the Order of the British Empire and the Bancroft Prize. Alumni include heads of states, diplomats, politicians, eminent scientists and activists.

History

20th century

In an effort to establish a university to serve Sussex, a public meeting was held in December 1911 at the Royal Pavilion in order to discover ways to fund the construction of a university; the project was halted by World War I, and the money raised was used instead for books for the Municipal Technical College.

The idea was revived in the 1950s and, in June 1958, the government approved the corporation's scheme for a university at Brighton, to be the first of a new generation of what came to be known as plate glass universities.[5] The University was established as a company in 1959, with a Royal Charter being granted on 16 August 1961.[5] This was the first university in the UK since the Second World War. The University's organisation broke new ground in seeing the campus divided into Schools of Study, with students able to benefit from a multidisciplinary teaching environment. Sussex would emphasise cross-disciplinary activity, so that students would emerge from the university with a range of background or 'contextual' knowledge to complement their specialist 'core' skills in a particular subject area.[10] For example, arts students spent their first year taking sciences while science students took arts.

The university quickly grew, starting with 52 students in 1961–62, to having 3200 in 1967–68. After starting at Knoyle Hall in Brighton, the Falmer campus was gradually built with Falmer House opening in 1962.[11] Its campus was praised as gorgeously modernist and groundbreaking, receiving numerous awards.[12] Its Student Union was quite active, organising events and concerts. Performers like Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix and Chuck Berry repeatedly performed at the University Common Room, giving the university a reputation for Rock and Roll.[13]

Academically, Sussex was home to figures such as Lord Asa Briggs, Helmut Pappe, Gillian Rose, Jennifer Platt and Tom Bottomore. In its first years, the university attracted a number of renowned academics such as Sir John Cornforth, John Maynard Smith, Martin Wight, David Daiches, Roger Blin-Stoyle and Colin Eaborn. Similarly, renowned scholars like Marcus Cunliffe, Gabriel Josipovici, Quentin Bell, Dame Helen Wallace, Stuart Sutherland and Marie Jahoda also became central figures at the University and founded many of its current departments.

In the late 1960s, the United Nations asked for science policy recommendations from a team of renowned academics at Sussex. The ensuing report became known as the Sussex Manifesto.[14]

Sussex came to be identified with student radicalism. In 1973, a mob of students physically prevented United States government adviser Samuel P. Huntington from giving a speech on campus, due to his involvement in the Vietnam War.[15] Similarly, when the spokesperson for the US embassy, Robert Beers, visited to give a talk to students entitled 'Vietnam in depth' three students were waiting outside Falmer House and threw a bucket of red paint over the diplomat as he was leaving.[16] This came to be known as the Vietnam Bucket of Paint incident.

In both 1967 and 1969, Sussex won the UK University Challenge.[17]

In 1980, Sussex edged out the University of Oxford to become the University with the highest income from research grants and contracts.[18]

21st century

The Jubilee Building

In an attempt to appeal to a modern audience, the university chose in 2004 to cease using its coat of arms[19] and to replace it with the "US" logo.[20]

2011 marked Sussex's 50th anniversary and saw the production of a number of works including a book on the university's history and an oral history and photography project. The university launched its first major fundraising campaign, Making the Future, and gathered over $51.3 million.[21]

The university underwent a number of changes with the Sussex Strategic Plan 2009–2015, including the introduction of new academic courses, the opening of new research centres, the renovation and refurbishment of a number of its schools and buildings as well as the ongoing expansion of its student housing facilities. The university has spent over £100 million on campus redevelopment, which is ongoing with £500 million set to be spent by the year 2021.

Sussex is heavily involved with the larger community across England, especially in East Sussex. There are many regular community projects, such as children's activity camps, the Neighbourhood scheme, the community ambassador programme and Street Cleans. Local residents can receive free legal advice from Sussex's law school and get guidance on renting through Sussex's Rent Smart program.[22] The university also facilitates volunteering opportunities for a number of local and international organizations. The university also offers language courses for the public through its Sussex centre for language studies.[23] The university runs the Sussex Conversations program, a media platform seeking to disseminate research to the wider community.[24]

In 2015-16, the university generated more than $573 million to the UK economy, with over $140 million in tax receipts.[25]

In September 2017, the University appointed Saul Becker as its first permanent deputy Vice-Chancellor and Jayne Aldridge as its first permanent director of student experience. These changes come as part of a number of structural changes the university has been introducing in the past years.[26]

In 2018, the University moved all of its investments out of fossil fuels (known as fossil fuel divestment) after a four-year student union run campaign.[27]

Campus

Sussex is situated near the city of Brighton, and surrounded by the South Downs National Park. It is the only English university to be located in a National Park.[28] The campus is also close to Hove and Lewes and is under one hour away from central London.

The campus, designed by Sir Basil Spence, is in the village of Falmer. It is close to the South Downs, which influenced Spence's design of the campus. In 1959, the Basil Spence and Partners company began planning and designing the campus, to be built over a 15-year period. In 1971, 17 buildings had been designed and built winning numerous awards including a medal from the Royal Institute of British Architects and a Civic Trust award.[12]

Spence expressed his awe at the beauty of the surrounding region and designed the campus as a stream of low buildings so as not to disturb the natural scenery around. Brick was chosen throughout as it was the dominant material used in West and East Sussex.[12]

As the campus developed, Spence connected the buildings by a series of 'green, interlocking courtyards that Spence felt created a sense of enclosure'.[12]

Today the campus is self-contained with facilities, eights cafes/restaurants, a post office, multiple Co-op Food stores, a market, a bank, a bookshop, a pharmacy, a health centre (including a dentist) and childcare facilities.[29] Spence's designs were appreciated by architects; many of the campus buildings won awards. A number of features distinguishes these buildings, including the materials used and the fact that many of them have planted and tree-filled courtyards. The gatehouse-inspired Falmer House won a bronze medal from the Royal Institute of British Architects.[5] Another campus building, The Meeting House, won the Civic Trust award in 1969.[30] In 1993, the buildings which made up the core of Spence's designs were given listed building status, with Falmer House being one of only two buildings to be given a Grade 1 status of "exceptional interest".[30] A number of the original buildings are now Grade I listed buildings, the first time university buildings in England become listed.[31]

Sussex laid claim to being the "only English university located entirely within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty".[32] It is now entirely surrounded by the newly founded South Downs National Park.

Essex House

The Gardner Arts Centre, another of Basil Spence's designs, was opened in 1969 as the first university campus arts centre.[33] It had a 480-seat purpose-built theatre, a visual art gallery and studio space, and was frequently used for theatre and dance as well as showing a range of films on a modern cinema screen. The Centre closed in the summer of 2007:[34] withdrawal of funding and the cost of renovating the building were given as the key reasons. Following an extensive refurbishment, the Centre reopened as the Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts (ACCA) in the autumn of 2015, and a public performance programme started in Spring 2016. The Centre is now a national arts and performance hub hosting various kinds of performances year-round.

The campus has facilities such as the Genome Damage and Stability Centre; the medical imaging equipment at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS); and the University's Library, until 2013 the home of the Mass Observation Archive, which relocated to The Keep, a purpose-built facility nearby.

The Library

The Sussex Main Library

The university's main library is at the centre of its campus. It was opened by the Queen on 13th November 1964. It houses over 800,000 books, more than 58,000 journals and many databases, digital archives and the university's own archives.[35] The Royal Literary fund office is based at the Library, providing support for students and staff. The Library also houses a research support centre and a research hive for PhD students and research staff.[36] There are also a Skills Hub, training facilities, a support centre, a cafe and a Careers and Employability Centre.

There are also smaller libraries within individual schools and research centres, as well as The Keep.

The university holds a number of acclaimed collections and archives, mostly related to twentieth century literary, political and cultural history. Collections include original manuscripts and first editions by Virginia Woolf, Jane Austen and Rudyard Kipling as well as The New Statesman Archive and the Mass-Observation Archive. Sussex also has a number of collections, such as the archival collection of CBW related documents on chemical and biological weapons disarmament (SHIB - Sussex Harvard Information Bank).[37]

Organisation and administration

Schools of Studies

The university was founded with the unusual structure of "Schools of Study" (ubiquitously abbreviated to "schools") rather than traditional university departments within arts and science faculties.

In the early 1990s the University promoted the system by claiming "[c]lusters of faculty [come] together within schools to pursue new areas of intellectual enquiry. The schools also foster broader intellectual links. Physics with Management Studies, Science and Engineering with European Studies, Economics with Mathematics all reach beyond conventional Arts/Science divisions."[38] By this time the original schools had been developed somewhat and were:

Shawcross Building
  • African and Asian Studies (abbreviated to AFRAS)
  • Biological Sciences (BIOLS)
  • Chemistry and Molecular Sciences (MOLS)
  • Cognitive and Computing Sciences (COGS)
  • Cultural and Community Studies (CCS)
  • Engineering and Applied Sciences (ENGG, formerly EAPS)
  • English and American (ENGAM or EAM)
  • European Studies (EURO)
  • Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS)
  • Social Sciences (SOC)

There was also the Institute of Development Studies (IDS).

In 2001, as the university celebrated its 40th anniversary, the then Vice-Chancellor Alasdair Smith proposed major changes to the curriculum across the "Arts schools", and the senate agreed to structural changes which would create two Arts schools and a "Sussex Institute" in place of the five schools then in place. Corresponding changes would be made in Sciences.[39]

The changes were finally implemented in September 2003. After discussion in senate and the schools, disciplinary departments which had been located across the different schools, were located firmly within one school, and undergraduates were offered straightforward degree subjects. The multi-disciplinarity provided by the school courses was now to be achieved through elective courses from other departments and schools.

In 2009 the university adopted a new organisational structure. The term "Schools of Studies" was retained, but each was headed by a "Head of School" rather than the traditional "Dean". Many of these new heads were appointed from outside Sussex rather than from existing faculty. The schools as of 2009 are listed below.[40]

The term "department" has been retained in some cases, where a school contains separate disciplines.

The Law, Politics and Sociology school
  • Engineering and Informatics (two separate schools before 2011)[41]
  • Life Sciences (includes Biology, Environmental Science, Chemistry and Biochemistry and houses the Centre for Genome Damage and Stability)
  • Mathematical and Physical Sciences (includes Mathematics, Physics and Astronomy)
  • Psychology
  • Business, Management and Economics
  • Education and Social Work
  • Global Studies (includes Anthropology,[42] Geography and International Relations, as well as interdisciplinary programmes in Development Studies)
  • Law, Politics and Sociology
  • English
  • History, Art History and Philosophy
  • Media, Film and Music

The changes did not affect the Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS).

The Doctoral School supports PhD student and Post-docs across all schools and departments and supports PhD students and Post-Docs through the Sussex Research hive, the Researcher Development Program, funding schemes as well as its own partnerships.[43]

Coat of Arms

The university's coat of arms was officially granted on 15 March 1962. It built on Sussex's history and features: two Saxon crowns and a dolphin naiant sable. The arms also features six martlets or heraldic swallows, as per the traditional emblem of East and West Sussex counties. On either side of the arms two pelican, head bowed down, stand, each, upon a book and support a staff.[45]

Since 2011, the coat of arms is only used by the graduation team and on official university degrees. For all other purposes, the US logo is used.

Academic profile

The university, a member of the Erasmus charter, offers over 350 Undergraduate programs, over 210 Master Programs and over 70 PhD programs. It is research-led, with around 1000 teaching and research staff of which around 300 are research-only staff. Additionally, there are over 1200 PhD students at the university distributed across the different Schools. The university fees are at £9,250 per year for undergraduates, the highest a university can charge in the U.K.[46]

The Sussex Genome Centre

The university of Sussex is one of the UK ESRC's 21 Centres for Doctoral Training, the only institutions accredited in 2010 and capable of receiving ESRC doctoral studentships and funding. The system was updated in 2016 and Doctoral Training Partnerships were established to replace the DTC. In this respect, Sussex is now a member of the Consortium of the Humanities and the Arts-South East England (CHASE) and the South East Network for Social Sciences SeNSS.[73][74]

The results of the Research Excellence Framework 2014 show that 98% of research activity at Sussex is categorised as ‘world-leading’ (28%), ‘internationally excellent’ (48%) or ‘internationally recognised’ (22%) in terms of originality, significance and rigour.[75]

Sussex has a number of research collaborations with other Higher Education institutions as well as governmental and non-governmental organizations and institutes around the world. For example, the Harvard Sussex program is a long-standing research collaboration between Sussex and Harvard University focusing on public policy towards chemical and biological weapons. The CBW Conventions Bulletin is a quarterly newsletter published by the HSP.[76] Sussex-Cornell Partnership, the Sussex-Bocconi-Renmin Intrapreneurship Hub and the Sussex-Lund Partnership in Middle Eastern and North African Studies are recent examples. Sussex also co-coordinates the Consortium for the Humanities and the Arts.[77] Sussex is also one of the eight universities of the Tyndall Centre network.[78]

In Europe, Sussex is one of the collaborating institutions of the Paul Scherrer Institute, the largest research institute in Switzerland, focusing on issues of technology and the natural sciences.[79] Sussex is involved with a large number of projects with the EU and with European countries. For example, BAR research is an Anglo-French collaboration between the Sussex, the East Sussex County Council and three French universities.[80]

Nationally, Sussex is involved in a number of partnerships including the Nexus Network (A partnership between Sussex, University of Cambridge and East Anglia University) and CIED (a collaboration between Sussex, Oxford University and University of Manchester).[81][82] The university is also a partner of the Metropolitan Police, with Demos (UK think tank) and Palantir Technologies.[83]

In recent years, the institutes for the study of consciousness science, Centre for Advanced International Theory (CAIT), the institute for the study of corruption and the Middle East studies institute were opened at the university.[84] The university also has a Genome Damage and Stability Centre, a nuclear magnetic resonance facility and a purpose-built apparatus in cryogenic research.[85]

In terms of Policy, Sussex has is highly involved with the UK government, the UN and governments around the world. For example, the university is a UN Habitat partner.[86] Nationally, the UK Trade Policy Observatory was set up at the University to offer the UK government, the UK industry as well as the public advice in addressing trade issues resulting from Brexit.[87] The university is also one of the UK government's partner institutions on the Arctic Research Program.[88] Similarly, SPRU and IDS are involved in policy recommendations with countries on all five continents.[89]

In 2016, the Transformative Innovation Policy Consortium (TIPC) was set up as a collaboration between the university and the governments of Sweden, Norway, Finland, South Africa and Colombia to research social and economic issues.[90]

The university is also home to a number of the world's top academic journals from the IDS Bulletin to The Journal for Ethnic and Migration studies, journal of Experimental Psychopathology, The World Trade Review, Journal of Banking and Finance, International Journal of Innovation Management, Journal of International Humanitarian Legal Studies, European Journal of International Relations and the Child and Family Social Work Journal, among many others.[91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98]

Educational partners

Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS) results from a partnership between the University of Brighton and the University of Sussex. The school, the first medical school in the South East outside London, gained its licence in 2002 and opened in 2003. The Guardian ranked the medical school as 16th in the UK in 2018.[104]

BSMS building

The Institute of Development Studies offers research, teaching and communications related to international development. IDS originated in 1966 as a research institute based at the University of Sussex. It is financially and constitutionally independent under the status of a charitable company limited by guarantee.

The Centre for Research in Innovation Management, a research-based school of the University of Brighton, dates from 1990. It is located in the Freeman Centre building with the Science Policy Research Unit (SPRU) on the University of Sussex campus.

The Sussex Innovation Centre, an on-campus commercial business centre, opened in 1996. It provides services for the formation and growth of technology- and knowledge-based companies in the South East. It offers a business environment to over 40 companies in the IT, biotech, media and engineering sectors.

Nationally, the University of Sussex has a number of partner institutions across the UK including Bellerbys College, British and Irish Modern Music Institute (BIMM), University Centre Croydon (UCC, also known as Croydon College), Highbury College Portsmouth, International Study Centre (Study Group), Roffey Park Institute, University of Brighton and West Dean College. These partnerships include both validated courses (designed and delivered by the partner institution but awarded and quality assured by the University of Sussex) and franchised courses (designed and assessed by the University of Sussex but delivered by another institution).[105]

Study Group works in partnership with the University to provide the Sussex University International Study Centre (ISC).[106] It offers a course of academic subjects, study skills and English-language training for students who wish to study a degree at the university but who do not yet possess the necessary qualifications to start a degree. The ISC course provides students with English-language and academic skills to start at Sussex the following year. In 2018, ISC announced that they will increase their postgraduate and undergraduate offerings by adding 50 new courses across the pre-masters and pathway options on offer.[107]

The British and Irish Modern Music Institute offers BA courses in Modern Musicianship – validated by the University of Sussex – at its centres in London, Berlin, Hamburg, Brighton, Manchester, Bristol and Birmingham.[108][109]

Internationally, the university has over 160 partner institutions including the University of British Columbia, University of California, George Washington University, Georgetown University, University of Massachusetts Amherst, University of Michigan Ann Arbor, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, University of North Carolina at Asheville, University of Pittsburgh, Purdue University, University of Rochester, State University of New York, University of Texas at Austin, University of Washington, Kyoto University, Peking University, Korea University, National Taiwan University (NTU), Université Grenoble Alpes, Aix-Marseille Université, Paris-Sorbonne University, Sciences Po Aix, Sciences Po Paris, University of Strasbourg, Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.[110] These are institutions where there are formal agreements for student exchange, research collaborations, staff and faculty mobility and study abroad schemes.[111][112][113]

Student life

Sussex Student Union common room

The Sussex Student Union is the main body responsible for the representation of Sussex students. It runs a number of restaurants, schemes (such as the buddy scheme) and projects (such as the role model project).[114] There are 261 student clubs and societies at Sussex, all functioning under the Student Union.[115] Students are also supported through the university, for example through the Student life centre which covers problems ranging from financial difficulties to psychological ones.[116]

Sussex is a few minutes away from central Brighton, referred to as "Soho by the sea," and a large number of its students live in the city. Students are highly involved in Brighton's life, from its cultural scene to community service. In 2016, Sussex won the AGCAS award for Student engagement.[117]

In 2017, Sussex was ranked as top in the UK for political scene (tied with Cambridge, Oxford, Manchester, Goldsmith and LSE).[118]

Student research

Sussex runs a Junior Researcher scheme in which undergraduate students can receive funding and spend 8 weeks during their summer vacation doing researcher alongside Sussex researchers and academics.[119] Additionally, a number of independent bursaries for undergraduates to conduct research projects exist within Schools and research centres. In parallel, a competitive International Junior researcher scheme exists to allow students from Sussex's institutional partners (Georgetown university, The chinese University of Hong Kong, University of California, Santa Cruz...) to receive funding and come to Sussex to work on research projects alongside researchers and academics.[120]

Additionally, a number of research groups and networks incorporate advanced undergraduate students into their projects offering them the opportunity to both shadow and actively participate in ongoing research at the university.[121]

As to the Masters level, Sussex offers MA, MS, MRes, PGCert, PGDip, CLNDIP and LLM degrees.[122] All master's degrees are research based and master students are incorporated with PhD students in the different research centres, clusters and networks across the university and a large number of master's degrees are based in research centres instead of being based in University departments.[123] Further, student research mobility schemes are in place to allow students to conduct research at other institutions across the world.

The university has a number of research-oriented funding schemes (scholarships and fellowships) for Master students, including a Sussex Graduate Scholarship.[124]

International students and opportunities

In 2016-2017, there were 17,319 students at Sussex, with under 12,000 undergraduates and over 5,000 postgraduates. In total, there are around 5,000 students from outside the EU, the majority of whom are postgraduates. It also has a large number of students from mainland Europe, a little over 7% of its student body in 2017-2018. One in five of its undergraduates study abroad at some point of their education: the majority of its undergraduate courses offer a study abroad year and/or placement.[6]

The Sussex Innovation Centre

Sussex students may also spend a year abroad as part of their degree, in a variety of European institutions through the ERASMUS programme, as well as North America, Asia, Central and South America, Australia and North Africa.[125]

The university runs the first generation scholars scheme, an award-winning initiative, to support students from lower-economic backgrounds as well as students who are the first to pursue higher education in their families.[126] In 2017, Britain's Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn met the first generation students during his visit to the University.[127]

In the OFFA last ranking (2016) Sussex ranked as second in the South east (after Oxford) and sixth in the UK in expenditure on widening participation.[128]

Support at Sussex includes a work-study programme to help students earn money, funded work placements and three years’ aftercare for graduates to help them find a suitable career. The Sussex Plus programme documents and credits students' extracurricular skills.[46]

English Language courses for speakers of other languages are provided by the Language Institute. "English in the Vacation" gives intensive practice in spoken and written English. An International Foundation Year offered by the ISC (Sussex University International Study Centre) offers direct routes to Sussex degrees.[129]

The Sussex International Summer School runs for four and eight weeks starting in July, providing intensive courses. It is predominantly attended by foreign students.[130] The ISS trips office provides excursions to prominent cities, theatres, and activities.[131] Sussex is also home to the Fulbright Sussex Summer institute, a four-week academic program on British culture designed for American Students.[132]

The International Study centre at Sussex offers international "foundation courses" and an "international year 1" scheme to allow students from various backgrounds to join the University.[133] The centre also offers a "Pre-masters" degree for international students.[134]

The Sussex Student Union also runs a series of events in support of international students at Sussex. The union has a Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions policy in all its shops, bars and cafes.[135]

Housing

Accommodation on campus was expanded in the 1970s with the construction of the unusual split-level flats of East Slope. This development also has a social building with a porter's office and bar. As of 2017, East slope is set for demolition to be replaced by new housing facilities.[136]

In the 1990s, as student numbers rose, further developments were constructed in the corner of campus between East Slope and Park Village. Brighthelm and Lewes Court were constructed in public-private partnership funding arrangements with the Bradford & Northern and Kelsey Housing Associations.

Two newer accommodation areas were completed recently: one next to Falmer railway station, named Stanmer Court, and the other next to East Slope, opposite Bramber House, known as Swanborough.[137]

Northfield were constructed at the top end of campus, beyond Lewes Court, which opened in September 2011. A few years after, they followed by Swanborough accommodation.[138]

In 2017, work to build over 2000 new student houses to be completed by 2020 began as part of the University's plan to build a student village on its Falmer campus.[139]

Overall, the university now has nine on-campus university managed accommodations, two off-campus university managed flats, two off-campus university managed study lodges and a number of University homes scattered across Brighton and the surrounding villages.[140] Rent ranges from around 100 £ per week to around 160 £ per week.

In 2016, there were over 5000 students living in university accommodation, including all first year students (who are guaranteed accommodation).[141]

Sport

The university has two sports centres on its campus: the Sussex Sports Centre and the Falmer Sports Complex. There is also one sports shop within the sports centre and one in the Falmer sports complex.[142] The Falmer sports centre alone has over 40 acres of playing field.[143] The university also has agreements with freedom Leisure, granting its students access to sports centres across West Sussex.

Floodlit 3G pitch

The university competes in the following sports, usually with both men's and women's teams:

A section of the Sports fields

The Falmer stadium, home to the Brighton & Hove Albion F.C., is located near the Sussex campus. A mutual relationship of benefits, including potential usage of the stadium's sporting facilities by the university, was established very early on.[144]

In 2018, the university had 42 sports teams competing in the BUCS.[145]

The Sussex Sports centre also runs a number of courses, from Yoga to Cycling challenges, as well as fundraisers, children's activities and specialized workshops for students and staff. The university also offers sports scholarships, including ones for basketball and Hockey.[46]

Campus media

University Radio Falmer (abbreviated to URF) was one of the first student radio stations in the country, founded in 1976.[146] It now broadcasts via digital audio broadcasting[147] and via the internet.[148] The station has a daytime schedule, and during the evening offers a range of genre programming, all from Sussex students. URF also runs a news service. It won a bronze award in the "best scripted programming" category in the 2008 UK Student Radio Awards.[149] The station also holds the former BBC Radio Director Helen Boaden and Sky News journalist Kit Bradshaw among its alumni.[150][151]

The Badger is the Union’s fortnightly newspaper and is written and designed entirely by Sussex students. The paper is available to students and staff during term-time, covering news and sport on campus, as well as comment pieces, features, lifestyle and arts coverage. It also publishes content online. The Badger began in October 1995, having formerly been known as Unionews since the 1970s. The paper has since covered a variety of stories, including several on-campus occupations and the expulsion of five Sussex students for involvement in protests.

University of Sussex Student Television (abbreviated to UniTV) is a student television channel, launched in September 2010. UniTV is a member of NaSTA (National Student Television Association) and has won 7 NaSTA awards in the past three years.[152]
