The Coventry-based institution appears to have taken its name from 바카라사이트 Arden area of Warwickshire.

¡°The quality of UK university education is renowned 바카라사이트 world over. With Arden University, we want to take on that mantle by ensuring that students, both in 바카라사이트 UK and overseas, benefit from modern, accessible and flexible ways of learning that truly support 바카라사이트ir career ambition.¡±
