Facilities
The School of Computer Science has been established for 25 years and is now based in a prestigious and purpose-designed building located on the University's modern Jubilee Campus, which has student accommodation, lecture theatres, a learning resource centre, cafes and sports facilities. There is wireless access throughout the University campus, and the Computer Science terminal rooms, and circulation areas, are equipped with both wired and wireless network access.
The Jubilee Campus is the hidden gem of the University. The campus is less than 15 years old and has fantastic facilities for the students that study within it. Large lecture theatres and beautiful grounds make learning here a pleasure and regular bus links make commuting easy.
