Teaching

Our teaching is designed with industry partners, with placements and work experience to give you a head start in the working world. Our lecturers know their subjects like the back of their hands because they’ve more than likely lived it.

From state-of-the-art virtual engineering labs to our multi-million pound media facility, Elephant Studios, our facilities are extensive, cutting edge and highly specialist. ZONES, our learning environment transformation programme, continues this legacy, with over £65 million being invested into our London campus.
