Student spaces on campus

Find the space that works for you

Whether you're looking for somewhere quiet to reset between classes, a comfortable place to meet friends, or a spot to work on a group project, we encourage you to explore the different spaces and discover which ones work best for you. 

Although many of these spaces are located within specific academic buildings, they are open to all students.  

These areas provide welcoming spaces to:  

  • Make a hot drink  
  • Heat up food  
  • Chat with friends  
  • Study independently or in groups 
  • Relax between lectures 


Each location offers slightly different facilities. Explore campus and find your favourite or check the interactive map for details of each location. 

These spaces are open to all students and there’s no need to book. 

The University has also recently refreshed some of our student spaces, these can be found in: 

  • Wager - G20 
  • Agriculture - GL09, R2L01, R2L05 and R2L17 
  • Harry Nursten - 264 
  • Minghella – CR202  
  • ICMA Foyers 
  • The Library has also had significant furniture refresh on Levels 2 and 4

 

Where can I find them?  

Full details can be found on the University's interactive campus map of the study spaces on our Whiteknights and London Road campuses. The map includes key details such as opening times and photos of what to expect.
