The university is a member of the Association of Commonwealth Universities, the Association of MBAs, the European Quality Improvement System, the European University Association, Universities UK and GW4; the University of Bath can trace its roots to the Merchant Venturers' Technical College, an institution founded as a school in 1595 and a technical school established in Bristol in 1856 which became part of the Society of Merchant Venturers in 1885. Meanwhile, in the neighbouring city of Bath, a pharmaceutical school, the Bath School of Pharmacy, was founded in 1907.

This became part of the Technical College in 1929. The college came under the control of the Bristol Education Authority in 1949; the college was housed in the former Muller's Orphanage at Ashley Down in Bristol, which still houses part of the City of Bristol College whilst the remainder has been converted into residential housing. In 1963, the Robbins Committee report paved the way for the college to assume university status as Bath University of Technology. Although the grounds of Kings Weston House, in Bristol, were considered — which and until 1969, accommodated the College's School of Architecture and Building Engineering — the City of Bristol was unable to offer the expanding college an appropriately sized single site. Following discussions between the College Principal and the Director of Education in Bath, an agreement was reached to provide the college with a new home in Claverton Down, Bath, on a greenfield site, purchased through a compulsory purchase order from the Candy family of Norwood Farm, overlooking the city.

Construction of the purpose-built campus began in 1964, with the first building, now known as 4 South, completed in 1965, the Royal Charter was granted in 1966. In November 1966, the first degree ceremony took place at the Assembly Rooms in Bath. Over the subsequent decade, new buildings were added. In the mid-19th century, there were plans to build a college of the University of Oxford on the site; the university logo features the so-called Gorgon's head, taken, via the university's coat of arms, from a Roman sculpture found in the city. Until 30 October 2012, it was a member of the 1994 Group. A report by the Higher Education Funding Council for England into governance at the University was published on 20 November 2017. In November 2017, frustration with the governance of the university grew concerning the Vice Chancellor, Glynis Breakwell's remuneration; the HEFCE recommended 13 changes to the governance of the university. In November 2017, Breakwell's salary rose by 3.9% to over £468,000 and she was reported as the highest paid Vice Chancellor in the country.

The University and College Union had an "emergency meeting" of all staff to discuss the issue and the students' union organised a vote of no confidence involving all undergraduate and postgraduate students. By August 2017, four MPs had resigned from the advisory board at the University of Bath in protest against the vice-chancellor's pay package. In November 2017 Breakwell agreed to retire, taking a sabbatical on full pay from September 2018 until retirement in February 2019 when a £31,000 car loan to her would be written off. In January 2018 the University Court voted for her immediate departure and demanding the chair the governing council and remuneration committee should step down, though this decision could not override the existing contractual agreement with Breakwell. On 5 March 2018, at 13:30, a group of 10 Bath students supporting the UCU strike action occupied the vice chancellor's suite in protest of the university's support for UUK's proposed pension reforms; the occupation was endorsed by Bath MP Wera Hobhouse.

The university was criticised for its initial response to the protesters, blocking the entrance to the only accessible toilets in the occupied area for the first 21 hours of the occupation. The University's response was criticised by local councillor Joe

St Martin at Oak, Norwich is a Grade I listed redundant parish church in the Church of England in Norwich. The church is medieval dating from before 1491, it was destroyed by bombing in January 1942.

A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register; when the church closed for worship, the organ was transferred to St Bartholomew’s Church, Suffolk
