Our new, £60m Health and Life Sciences building is purpose-built for teaching and research.
It houses a flexible teaching lab that can be subdivided to create up to four separate spaces. It is also home to seminar rooms, a cafe and a social space.
Biomedical engineering student Katie McAreavey spent a semester at Colorado State University in Fort Collins as part of our Study Abroad scheme.
“One of the benefits to studying abroad was that I was able to pick modules that wouldn’t have been on offer to me at ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø. This not only gave me the opportunity to diversify my education, it also boosted my final grade for the year."
Faustina Hwang,
Professor of Interactive Systems Design
