Join our diverse community
We know that real change doesn’t trickle down – it bubbles up. Our staff and our students reflect the diversity of the community in which we live. With academics from all round the world, we create a comfortable environment in which everyone, including our international students, can feel at home.
SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS
Develop Solutions
Our connections also allow us to regularly work with companies to develop solutions to the problems they face, both enhancing their productivity and profitability and enabling us to share additional knowledge with our students.
Robotics Lab
As well as our BIM centre, we have a Digital Architecture and Robotics lab (DAR), run by academics who do a lot of research work in industry.
Anechoic Chamber
We are home to the only anechoic chamber in London for environmental and building acoustic studies, and our architecture studio enjoys views of many of London’s landmark buildings.
The Complete Process
Our courses cover the complete process so that whatever a student comes to study, they’ll be able to experience the construction and built environment industry in its totality.
