To improve your digital experience at BU, our iBU mobile application will be retiring on 30 June 2021.
BU has supported the iBU mobile application since 2014, however its functions have since been duplicated across the BU website, Brightspace and its respective mobile application, Pulse. As a result of this duplication, we are retiring iBU to provide a streamlined digital experience for you. This means that from 1 July, students and staff will need to access BU services using our other platforms.
The information below explains how to access the core iBU functions from 1 July:
