The University of East Anglia (UEA) is a public research university in Norwich, England. Established in 1963 on a 320-acre (130-hectare) campus west of the city centre, the university has four faculties and twenty-six schools of study.[7] The annual income of the institution for 2021–22 was £295 million, of which £30 million was from research grants and contracts, with an expenditure of £370 million,[1] and had an undergraduate offer rate of 85% in 2021.[8]
UEA is consistently rated as one of the best universities for student experience in the United Kingdom.[9][10] It is a leading member of Norwich Research Park which has one of Europe’s biggest concentrations of researchers in the fields of Arts and Humanities, Social Sciences, and Medicine and Health Sciences.[11] UEA is a research-intensive institution recognised for the quality of its research with it being in the top 20 nationwide for research quality[12] and is one of the nation’s most prominently cited institutions worldwide.[13]
UEA alumni and faculty include three Nobel Prize winners, a co-discoverer of Hepatitis C and of the Hepatitis D genome[14] as well as the small interfering RNA,[15] a co-inventor of the Oxford–AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine,[16] one President of the Royal Society,[17] three Fellows of the Academy of Medical Sciences and forty-eight Fellows of the Royal Society. Alumni also include one current monarch and former prime minister, two de facto heads of state, one vice president, one deputy prime minister, and two former leaders of the House of Lords along with two Lasker Award winners, three Booker Prize winners, eleven Costa Book Award winners, and three Caine Prize winners.[18]
History[edit]
1960s[edit]
Norfolk Terrace and Attached Walkways, at the University of East Anglia.
Residents in Norwich began to discuss about the possibility of establishing a university in the nineteenth century,[19] and attempts to establish one in Norwich were made in 1919 and 1947. But due to a lack of government funding on both occasions the plans had to be postponed. The University of East Anglia was eventually set up in April 1960 for biological sciences and English studies students. Initially, teaching took place in the temporary “University Village”, which was officially opened by chairman of the University Grants Committee, Keith Murray, on 29 September 1963.[20] Sited on the opposite side of the Earlham Road to the present campus, this was a collection of prefabricated structures designed for 1,200 students, laid out by the local architectural firm Feilden and Mawson. There were no residences with the vice-chancellor and administration being based in nearby Earlham Hall.[21]
In 1961, the first vice-chancellor, Frank Thistlethwaite, had approached Denys Lasdun, an adherent of the “New Brutalist” trend in architecture, who was at that time building Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, to produce designs for the permanent campus.[21] The site chosen was on the western edge of the city, on the south side of Earlham Road. The land, formerly part of the Earlham Hall estate was at that time occupied by a golf course.[22] Lasdun presented a model and an outline plan at a press conference in April 1963, but it took another year to produce detailed plans, which diverged considerably from the model. As a result, the first buildings did not open until late-1966.[21]
Lasdun moved the teaching and research functions into the “teaching wall” which was a single block 460 metres (1,510 feet) long following the contour of the site. Alongside this a walkway was built, giving access to the various entrances of the wall, with frontage roads beneath. Attached to the southern side of the walkway he added the groups of terraced residences that later became known as “Ziggurats”. In 1968, Lasdun was replaced as architect by Bernard Feilden, who completed the teaching wall and library and created an arena-shaped square as a new social space.[21] They would later receive Grade II* listed status,[23] reflecting the importance of the architecture and the history of the campus.
In 1964, Arthur Miller’s The Crucible became the first drama production to be staged at UEA with John Rhys Davies (later to appear in The Lord of the Rings trilogy), the drama society’s first president.[24] In 1965, Benjamin Britten was appointed music adviser for UEA and in 1967, he conducted the UEA Choir in a performance of his War Requiem. In 1968, there were two royal visits from Princess Margaret and Queen Elizabeth II who each came to tour the new university for the first time.[24]
1970s[edit]
Entrance to the Sainsbury Centre from the UEA campus.
Malcolm Bradbury and Angus Wilson helped establish the first creative writing course in the United Kingdom and founded The School of Literature, Drama, and Creative Writing. In the early-1970s, UEA:TV (under the name of Nexus),[25] was formed and created student-made television with it operating for two hours a day over lunchtime. The student newspaper Concrete was first officially launched in 1973, replacing Mandate which launched in 1965. Additional publications included Phoenix, Can Opener, Mustard Magazine and Kett before Concrete re-launched in 1992.[24]
In 1972, the Centre for Climatic Research opened and was founded by climatologist Hubert Lamb. In the same year, architect Bernard Feilden helped the university win a Civic Trust Award for the design of the Square, the university’s main social area. In 1973, work began on the university lake, or the UEA Broad, which involved excavating 18 acres (7.3 hectares) of gravel and was arranged as part of a “no money” deal where a local aggregate company took the gravel for free leaving with a landscaped body of water fed by the River Yare.[24]
In the mid-1970s, the School of Computing Sciences first opened at UEA, and the university started offering education degrees from Keswick Hall, a manor house owned by the Gurney family and situated on the outskirts of Norwich. Initially this was only a postgraduate qualification, until the late-1970s when an undergraduate course was created. In 1978, the gift of a collection of tribal art and twentieth-century painting and sculpture, by artists such as Francis Bacon and Henry Moore, from Sir Robert Sainsbury and Lady Lisa Sainsbury resulted in the construction of the striking Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts at the western end of the main teaching wall, one of the first major works of architect Norman Foster. The UEA’s School of Fine Art opened in the same year.[24]
1980s[edit]
Earlham Hall, childhood home of Elizabeth Fry, is now the UEA Law School.[26]
In 1984, the School of Law first moved to Earlham Hall which dates back to 1580, and was once home to many famous residents including Elizabeth Fry and the Gurney family.[27] In 1986, the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) was opened within the Hubert Lamb Building[28] and in 1988, as part of the university’s twenty-fifth anniversary celebrations, Prince Charles visited the CRU building.[29][21]
In 1989, the British Centre for Literary Translation was founded by WG Sebald, and The Arthur Miller Centre for American Studies was set up to encourage and facilitate the study of the United States. Miller later went on to spend his eighty-fifth birthday at UEA when he was made an honorary graduate in 2000. That same year, Kazuo Ishiguro won the Booker Prize and became one of three UEA graduates who would receive the award, along with Ian McEwan and Anne Enright.[24]
1990s[edit]
In 1990, the student radio station Livewire1350AM launched, completing the university’s student media collective of print, television, and radio. It was opened by Radio 1 DJ John Peel and is now one of the longest running student radio stations in the country.[30] In 1993, the Union of UEA Students took over the management of The Waterfront, a music venue and nightclub. In 1994, Queen Elizabeth II returned to UEA to open the Queen’s Building, which hosts classes within the School of Health Sciences. In 1995, the Elizabeth Fry Building was opened, providing new facilities for almost 800 students.[31]
2000s[edit]
In 2000, UEA’s reputation within the field of environmental research led to the government choosing the university as the site for the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research. The centre, named after the nineteenth-century scientist John Tyndall, brings together scientists, economists, engineers and social scientists from eight partner institutions.[32] In 2001, the Sportspark, a multi-sports facility was built due to a £14.5 million grant from the Sport England Lottery Fund and was formally opened by Princess Anne and brought international sporting facilities to Norwich. The Sportspark houses an Olympic-sized pool, floodlit astro-pitches, and the tallest climbing wall in Norfolk.[33]
In 2001, UEA alumnus Sir Paul Nurse was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine[34] which he shared jointly with Timothy Hunt and Leland Hartwell “for their discoveries of key regulators of the cell cycle”. In 2002, UEA’s Medical School opened with 110 students enrolled as a collaboration with the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital and world-class research centres at Norwich Research Park. In 2003, the School of Pharmacy opened along with the Zuckerman Institute for Connective Environmental Research (ZICER).[35]
In 2005, the university in partnership with the University of Essex and with the support of Suffolk County Council, the East of England Development Agency, Ipswich Borough Council, and the Learning and Skills Council, secured £15 million funding from the Higher Education Funding Council for England for the creation of a new campus in the Waterfront area of Ipswich, called University Campus Suffolk (UCS).[36] The campus opened in September 2007.[36] In May 2016, it became independent of the UEA and was named the University of Suffolk.[37]
In 2008, INTO University Partnerships opened a £35m six-storey building named INTO University of East Anglia with 415 en-suite study-bedrooms and classroom space for 600 students. The institution, which works closely with UEA, focuses on the provision of foundation courses for international students, including English language, especially English for academic purposes. Shortly after opening, similar partnerships were created between INTO and Exeter and Newcastle.[38]
In November 2009, computer servers at the university’s Climatic Research Unit were hacked and the stolen information made public. Over 1,000 emails and 2,000 documents were released. Because the Climate Research Unit was a major repository for data regarding man-made global warming, the release, which occurred directly prior to the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference, attracted international attention and led to calls for an inquiry, with the controversy gaining the nickname “climategate”.[39] As a result, eight investigations were launched in both the UK and US, but none found evidence of fraud or scientific misconduct, and the academics were subsequently fully exonerated.[40]
2010s[edit]
In 2010, the Thomas Paine Study Centre was opened by playwright Trevor Griffiths; the building became the Norwich Business School. In 2012, the university won its second Queen’s Anniversary Prize for its distinguished creative writing programme, having won one previously for its School of International Development. The award helped bolster the region’s reputation as a literary hub and helped Norwich to achieve its status as England’s first UNESCO City of Literature in 2012.[24] In 2013, the university celebrated its fiftieth anniversary,[41] ranking Number 1 in the Times Higher Education Magazine Student Experience league table.[42] UEA also launched its first free Massive open online course (MOOC) in partnership with Future Learn.[43]
In 2014, UEA opened its most environmentally friendly building yet, Crome Court, which has won a number of awards for sustainability.[44] Also, part of the campus was used for location filming during filming of the Avengers: Age of Ultron. The Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts at UEA was used in Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming.[45][46] In 2015 “Britain’s Greenest Building”, The Enterprise Centre, opened on campus, helping the university win further awards for its environmental credentials.[47] Also, parts of the campus played host to Radio 1’s Big Weekend which was officially located at Earlham Park where international acts such as Fall Out Boy, Muse, Foo Fighters and Taylor Swift performed.[48]
In late-September 2016, two new accommodation blocks opened; Barton House and Hickling House were named after two of the Norfolk Broads and increased the number of rooms available to new students.[49] That year, Vice-Chancellor David Richardson unveiled a “2030 vision” which included a £300m investment in campus – refurbishing existing buildings as well as building new teaching and learning spaces.[50] In January 2017, Queen Elizabeth II visited the UEA campus to attend the latest exhibition at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts. This was the her third and final visit, and was the eighth visit by the Royal Family to the institution.[51][52]
2020–present[edit]
During the COVID-19 pandemic in May 2020, the university gave empty student accommodation to NHS staff, allowing them to isolate from at-risk family members and to avoid commuting.[53] In June 2021, plans for a BBC film documenting the 2009 CRU email controversy were announced, featuring Jason Watkins playing the role of climatologist Phil Jones.[54] It was shot on location at the university.[54] The film, The Trick, aired on 18 October 2021.[55]
In 2023, the university entered a financial crisis when it made a £74m loss in the financial year ending on 31 July 2022.[56][57] The university’s income was £295m, but it spent £370m (48% on staff costs, 16% on pension scheme provision, 26% other costs, 8% depreciation, and 2% interest on loans).[56][57] The university expected to make a £34m loss in the financial year 2023/24, and had predicted that by 2026/27 it would be making a loss of £45m a year.[56] The university’s teaching block, known as the Lasdun Wall, urgently required major repairs; its condition was described as “deteriorating fast” and it was said that if repairs were not done it might have “to be closed permanently”.[56][58] The financial turmoil alongside a previous vote of no-confidence by the UCU branch of East Anglia, and a “scathing” letter written to the UEA Council by the professoriate demanding change at the top, led to the immediate resignation of Vice-Chancellor David Richardson on 17 February 2023, who had been the Vice-Chancellor for ten years.[59][60]
Questions have been asked about the university’s sudden crisis in Parliament, with the local MP Clive Lewis talking of the institution being in a “death spiral”.[60] Professor David Maguire, formerly Vice-Chancellor at the University of Greenwich,[61] was appointed as the new Vice-Chancellor on 22 May 2023. According to a UEA press release, Maguire “will lead UEA through a significant period of transformation and change as it works to secure its future financial stability, and continue its success as a world-leading teaching and research University for future generations of students and staff”.[62]
In September 2023, it was announced that some of the university’s student accommodation would be temporarily closed, due to government guidance on the unsafe nature of the building material RAAC.[63] The accomodations affected were the Ziggurats (Norfolk and Suffolk Terrace), visitor accomodation Broadview Lodge, and the top floors of Constable Terrace and Nelson Court. Students were moved to alternative accommodation either on campus, or in the off-campus St Crispin House. Vice-Chancellor Professor David Maguire noted that they would be closed “until we can be certain that they are safe” and that there would be “no additional costs to students as a result of any changes” to accomodation. [64]
Campus[edit]
The Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts was designed by Lord Foster to house the art collection of Sir Robert Sainsbury and Lady Lisa Sainsbury, whose daughter attended UEA.
Features of the UEA campus include Earlham Hall, childhood home of Elizabeth Fry, which is now home to the UEA Law School; the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts at the western end of the main teaching wall designed by Norman Foster to house the art collection of Sir Robert Sainsbury and Lady Lisa Sainsbury, it also features the Sportspark, a multi-sports facilities built in 2001.[33] The campus regularly evolves, and now stretches across the Norwich Research Park with the Edith Cavell Building and the Bob Champion Research and Education Building considered part of its campus over by the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.[65] Newest buildings on the campus include two new accommodation blocks, and the Enterprise Centre.[66]
Up until 1993, former RAF accommodation blocks at RAF Horsham St Faith, known as “Fifers Lane” or “Horsham” halls, to the south of Norwich Airport housed roughly half of the university’s first year students. Other features include the large university lake or “Broad” at the southern edge of campus and “The Square”, a central outdoor meeting place flanked by concrete steps. There are three statues by Antony Gormley which were placed on campus in 2017, and drew controversy due to the fact that the figures resemble people balancing on high ledges.[67]

Accommodation blocks on the university campus include Constable Terrace, Nelson Court, and Britten, Paston, Colman, Victory, Kett and Browne Houses, and the University Village. Residences are named after Horatio Nelson, John Constable, Benjamin Britten, Jeremiah Colman, Nelson’s ship HMS Victory, Robert Kett, Sir Thomas Browne and the Paston family, the authors of the Paston Letters. The Ziggurat accommodation blocks are Grade II* listed. UEA’s accommodation block, Crome Court, opened in September 2014, containing the university’s most eco-friendly flats.[68] Two new blocks; Hickling and Barton House opened in September 2016.

Facilities on campus include the Union Pub and Bar, a 24-hour library, a concert venue called the Lower Common Room (LCR), a canteen called the Campus Kitchen, a café called the Blend, a bar called Unio, a graduate bar called the Scholar’s Bar and The Street with a 24-hour launderette, the Union shop, and a coffee shop called Ziggy’s. Most of these are situated in the centre of the campus, next to the Square. Other food establishments situated on campus include Café 57 and the Bio Cafe.[69] There is also a medical centre, dentist, and pharmacy, located on the eastern side of the campus.[70]
The campus is linked to the city centre and railway station by frequent buses, operated by First Norfolk & Suffolk, via Unthank Road or Earlham Road. Other transport links include First buses to the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital and to Bowthorpe, as well as Konectbus services to Watton, Dereham and Costessey via park and ride. National Express provides coach services to London, and Megabus operates low cost intercity travel to cities including Cambridge, Birmingham, Bristol and Cardiff.[71]
Academic profile[edit]
The postgraduate Master of Arts in creative writing, founded by Sir Malcolm Bradbury and Sir Angus Wilson in 1970, is regarded as the most respected in the United Kingdom, and admission to the programme is competitive.[72] The course has gone on to produce a number of distinguished authors, including Sir Kazuo Ishiguro, Ian McEwan, Anne Enright, Tash Aw, Andrew Miller, Owen Sheers, Tracy Chevalier, Trezza Azzopardi, Panos Karnezis and Suzannah Dunn. The German émigré novelist W. G. Sebald also taught in the School of Literature and Creative Writing, and founded the British Centre for Literary Translation, until his death in a car accident in 2001.[73]
Experimental novelist Alan Burns was the university’s first writer-in-residence.[74] The university library is also home to the British Archive for Contemporary Writing, which is an archive of material from a range of classical and contemporary writers, including Doris Lessing, Lee Child, and Naomi Alderman.[75] Since September 2022, the library has also been working on a project entitled ‘Towards a Centre for Contemporary Poetry in the Archive’, which has included hosting four Poets in Residence: Joelle Taylor, Jay Bernard, Anthony Vahni Capildeo and Gail McConnell.[76]
The Climatic Research Unit, founded in 1972 by Hubert Lamb in the School of Environmental Sciences,[77] has been an early centre of work for climate change research. The school was also stated to be “the strongest in the world” by the chief scientific adviser to the UK government, Sir David King, during a lecture at the John Innes Centre in 2005.[78] The university was one of the first in the UK to establish Film Studies as a serious academic discipline, with developmental funding to support a new lectureship in the field awarded from the British Film Institute.[79] It is also the home of the East Anglian Film Archive.
International partnerships[edit]
UEA students can study abroad for a semester or a year at the following international partners: University of California (Berkeley, Davis, Irvine, Los Angeles, Merced, Riverside, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, and Santa Cruz), Georgetown University, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, University of Colorado Boulder, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, University of Notre Dame, Middlebury College, Bennington College, Australian National University, Monash University, University of Melbourne, University of Sydney, Nanyang Technological University, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the University of Hong Kong.[80]
Admissions[edit]
UEA had the joint twenty-fifth highest average entry qualification for undergraduates of any UK university in 2015, with new students averaging 407 UCAS points,[84] equivalent to ABBbc in A-Level grades. In 2014, the ratio of applications to acceptances was 5.9 to 1. According to the 2017 Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide, approximately 10.5% of East Anglia’s undergraduates come from independent schools.[85]
Rankings and reputation[edit]
The University of East Anglia’s national league table performance over the past ten years.
The results of the 2021 Research Excellence Framework, published on 12 May 2022, showed that over 91% of the university’s research activity was deemed to be “world leading” or “internationally excellent” with more than 47% having the highest category of 4* of World Leading Research, significantly higher that the national average of 41%.[92][93] UEA was ranked thirteenth in the UK for the quality of its research outputs and twentieth overall amongst all mainstream British institutions – a rise of nine places since the last assessment in 2014.[93][94] In 2017, UEA was rated “gold” by the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) for quality of teaching.[95]
The university ranks in the world top 1% according to the Times Higher Education world rankings[96] and within the world top 100 for research excellence in the Leiden Ranking.[97] In 2012, the university was named the tenth best university in the world under 50-years-old, and third best within the UK.[98] In national league tables, the university has most recently been ranked eighteenth in the UK by The Times and Sunday Times, and fourteenth by The Complete University Guide.[99][100][101] In April 2013, the university was ranked first for student experience according to the Times Higher Education Magazine.[102] It currently ranks third for student satisfaction in the National Student Survey when ranking mainstream English universities. UEA is also the only institution to have ranked within the top five since the survey began.[102]
Grade distribution and inflation[edit]
There is a concern about grade inflation with the degrees awarded by English universities.[103][104] Data from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) showed that UEA has one of the highest proportions of First Class and Upper Second Class Honours degrees achieved by students[105] with only three universities in the United Kingdom awarded a higher proportion of first class degrees than the University of East Anglia between the academic years 2014/15 and 2017/18.[9] The University of East Anglia awarded 35.7% first class degrees, 52.1% upper seconds (2:1), 11.2% lower seconds (2:2), and 1% third class degrees in the 2016/17 academic year.[105]

UEA Student Union Logo.
All students at the university automatically become members of the union but do have the right to opt out of membership. Membership confers the ability to take part in the union’s activities such as clubs and societies and being involved in the democratic processes of the union. The union is a democratic organisation run by its members via an elected student officer committee and student council. It is affiliated to the National Union of Students.[107] The UEA Student Union has over 200 clubs and societies;[10] sports teams include men’s and women’s football clubs, a British Universities American Football League (BUAFC) Premier South Division American Football Team, The UEA Pirates, and cheerleading society to a Quidditch team.[108] The UEA Media Collective encompasses the student newspaper Concrete, UEA:TV (previously named Nexus UTV)[109] and the student radio station Livewire 1350AM.[110]
The UEA Student Union hosts events like Pimp My Barrow, which was an annual fundraising event for The Big C, and involved decorated wheelbarrows from 2006 to 2018. It has raised more than £50,000 for the Norfolk charity.[111] The annual Derby Day sports event sees UEA take on the University of Essex in approximately 40 sports. UEA has won the Derby Day trophy all seven times since 2013.[112] The UEA Student Union also organises gigs and club nights at the Nick Rayns LCR, or Lower[113] Common Room in Union House. The students’ union also runs the Waterfront venue, off campus in Norwich’s King Street, which was awarded a Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) award in 2018 for engagement with alumni. Acts to have performed at these venues include Captain Beefheart, The Cure, Coldplay, Pere Ubu, U2, Haim, The Smiths, Sparks, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Radiohead, and Iron Maiden. The union also operates a number of other services within Union House which underwent a refurbishment in 2015 after a £6 million investment from the university.[114]
