Project details

The new building enables the use of shared facilities between academic schools to foster cross school activity and maximise space utilisation, enhancing sustainable student facing facilities to ensure the university remains competitive.

It provides a mix of flexible informal study and social collaborative spaces for staff and students fusing education, research and professional practice and realises the values of collaborative working and thinking across communities.
