Originally set up in 1985, University of Buckingham Press is an independent publisher of wide-ranging trade and academic books and journals, working closely with the University of Buckingham - the UK’s first private university. Our mission is to publish meaningful research and written content and make it as available to as wide a global audience as possible.

Research.

UBP publishes a growing number of journals, under both subscription and open access models, covering diverse subjects, including medicine, law, economics, architecture, cyber security and education.  UBP’s journals are published in partnership with a number of university departments and professional associations.

Engage.

At University of Buckingham Press, we are interested in submissions from most disciplines across the humanities, science and social science – particularly books that simultaneously make a contribution to scholarly debate and have the potential to cross over to a general readership.
