INVESTING IN THE FUTURE - CAMPUS DEVELOPMENT
Substantial investment in our facilities has developed our historic campus into an innovative learning environment for our students and staff.
A £700m overall investment is ongoing with new Student Centre, School of Biological Sciences, Computer Science and Accommodation buildings, recently completed.
I love the old buildings and the fact that everything is close by. It's about a 15-minute walk to the city centre and there are always things to do at night. Adam Bunting
