About the Student Centre

We have transformed our Student Centre into a central hub for all students. The Student Centre is a friendly and sociable place for all students to study, relax and unwind.

Our library still makes up part of the Student Centre but we now also offer a much wider range of services and facilities in addition to this.

To become a member of the Student Centre please visit us on the mezzanine and speak to a member of the team.
