tranquil moments away from the hustle and bustle of the conference
or as a venue for outdoor events, drinks receptions or
barbeques. The traditional buildings forming the older part of the
University, stand shoulder to shoulder with four impressive new
state-of-the-art buildings. These house fully-equipped tiered
lecture theatres, IT training suites, a variety of meeting rooms
and an impressive sports performance area and fitness suite.
