The regional knockout tournaments, which will also be held in the city in 2027, include sports such as football, basketball, hockey, badminton, netball and rugby.
The university’s director of sport, Iain McKinney, said hosting the event was “an important opportunity” that showed its commitment to student sport.
He added that he hoped to create “an unforgettable experience” for participants in the Conference Cup, Trophy and Shield competitions.
The event will provide volunteering opportunities for both staff and students, and will also be held at Coventry University.
BUCS regional competitions coordinator Kristian Jackson said the finals were “the pinnacle of the season” for many, with “medals to be won and local bragging rights on the line”.

“For many students, these events represent the highest level of competition they can experience, so it is vital that the event environment is exceptional, helping to inspire continued participation in sport beyond university,” he added.
