LINCOLN BISHOP UNIVERSITY RANKED IN TOP 10 ACROSS UK UNIVERSITIES FOR ENGLISH

Lincoln Bishop University has been ranked 9^th in the UK for English, in the Guardian University Guide 2026.

Claudia Capancioni, Professor of English Literature and Programme Leader for English at Lincoln Bishop, said: "We are delighted with the results, which reflect our commitment to student-centred learning." The Guardian ranks universities across eight different categories to produce the rankings, including student satisfaction in teaching. Feedback from students via the National Student Survey (NSS) 2025, published earlier in the year, is also taken into account – in which Lincoln Bishop was ranked 1^st for Teaching and 1^st for English Literature in the UK. The NSS provides students with the opportunity to submit feedback on their university experience. Undergraduates in their final year of study are invited to answer questions on a variety of topics from their teaching and facilities to learning opportunities, resources and support. This accolade comes at an exciting time for the University’s English department and wider institution, as the start of the new academic year welcomes the commencement of applications from students who will begin their undergraduate studies in September 2026. English at Lincoln Bishop provides exciting and wide-ranging opportunities to study the power of human creativity and the rich heritage of literary expression.
