Bishop Grosseteste University (BGU) is a public university in Lincoln, England. BGU was originally established as a teacher training college for the Diocese of Lincoln in 1862. It gained taught degree awarding powers in 2012〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=University profile: Bishop Grosseteste University College )〕 and was granted full university status on 3 December 2012. With around 2,300 full-time students currently enrolled on a variety of programmes and courses, BGU is distinguished by its academic coherence and strong sense of community,〔(''Bishop Grosseteste University Launched'' Accessed 16 December 2012 )〕 as well as its sustained successes in areas like graduate employability and levels of student satisfaction. BGU attracts a variety of students, including mature and local students – for instance 27% of the undergraduate body is aged 21 or above at the start of their course, and 50% come from a radius. The courses often include a vocational element. ==History== Before 2006, the University of Hull and later the University of Leicester validated its qualifications. It was originally known as the "Diocesan Training School for Mistresses", then "Lincoln Diocesan Training College" and then "Bishop Grosseteste College" before becoming a university college in 2006, finally becoming Bishop Grosseteste University in 2012. The college initially occupied the premises of an earlier, unsuccessful training establishment for male teachers, built in 1842 and still in use. The college takes its present name from Robert Grosseteste, a 13th-century Bishop of Lincoln, theologian and scholar. In 2008 Dame Judith Mayhew was made Chancellor of Bishop Grosseteste University College. In 2012 saw a change in government legislation regarding the use of the university title meaning that higher education establishments with more than 1,000 students can apply for the title. Bishop Grosseteste University College Lincoln applied for the University title in June 2012 and was approved to be renamed "Bishop Grosseteste University". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bishop Grosseteste University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
