In the latest round of campus developments at London South Bank University (LSBU), two new additions are planned for our Elephant & Castle campus. The first is a custom-built Student Centre due to open in September 2012. This will be followed in 2013 with our Enterprise Centre in the Grade II listed Georgian Terraces in the north west corner of our campus. The new developments are part of LSBU's commitment to developing and improving our campuses in order to continue meeting the needs of our students.
The Student Centre will bring together many of the University's non-academic student support services and house our Students' Union. Around £8m has been set aside for the project. The development will take a prime location under our existing Tower Block, with a vibrant and exciting ground floor foyer, with a first floor area perfect for meeting friends, social learning and group working.
This purpose-built interior features non-academic student support and inspiring learning facilities
The architect for the project is London-based Hawkins Brown, a past Higher Education Architect of the Year.
As a University, we're very committed to business start-ups and knowledge transfer. We appreciate the space and resources new businesses need so our dedicated centre will bring resources together in a prominent hub for our campus and London's commercial needs. The development will transform this local landmark into an open gateway for the campus and make it fit for the 21st century.
This specialist hub brings a new lease of life to some of the oldest buildings on campus
The Grade II listed Georgian Buildings at St George's Circus will be transformed to become the University's Enterprise Centre. It will house incubation space, allied retail units, meeting rooms and an open public reception space, gallery and café.
