We are proud to be the first higher education institution in the world dedicated to the delivery of university degrees in the football and sports industry. What makes our unique educational experience work so well is down to three key components: what we teach, where we teach, and how we teach. We believe this approach gives you the best chance of a successful career upon graduation. Our degree programs have been designed with these industries and their varied roles, specifically in mind. Media, marketing, finance, psychology, coaching, and event management, amongst others, are all sectors of these industries that are growing at a rate never seen before, with new roles being created daily.
Our students benefit from unique learning and sporting environments to live and learn in, with state-of-the-art facilities in two inspirational campuses in London and Manchester, which have the iconic Wembley and Etihad stadiums at their heart.
Studying at UCFB, you will have the opportunity to obtain the critical ingredients for a successful career in professional football and sport. They are a degree, good references from a network of business contacts, and a proven track record of work experience. On top of this, we have launched the UCFB Award in Football & Sports Leadership. This premier award encompasses the additional qualifications and experiences that you can gain outside your degree program. Our goal at UCFB is to help create highly qualified, motivated, and experienced graduates to drive these industries forward across the globe.
At the University Campus of Football Business (UCFB), we pride ourselves on providing students with a stimulating curriculum in a unique environment. We believe our world-first approach to higher education gives our students the best possible chance of a successful football and sports industry career.

Our approach sees traditional subjects, such as business and finance, taught in a format that encompasses the student’s area of interest – football and sport. We find that students with a passion for these sectors are more inclined to be interested at the end of year financial reports of a Premier League club than those of, for example, a motoring company or bank. By creating this environment, we also believe it enables our students to form quick, lasting bonds with their peers due to similar interests inside and outside the classroom. Delivered to the high standards set by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education, the skills and knowledge gained throughout a student’s degree program at UCFB are transferable across sectors.
