Research student resources and facilities
We are currently investing in an ambitious building programme at Kingston University. New facilities include:
- Graduate Centres on each campus;
- new or expanded IT, lecture and seminar spaces; and
- state-of-the-art laboratories for psychology, pharmaceutical science and sport sciences students at the £9.8 million Eadweard Muybridge Building (Penrhyn Road campus).
We are now investing a further:
- £2.2 million in developing the learning resource centre at Kingston Hill;
- £18 million in new resources at Penrhyn Road; and
- around £2.5 million at the Roehampton Vale campus.
Libraries
We are expanding our library resources with more:
- books and publication subscriptions;
- online database subscriptions;
- AV and media equipment; and
- powerful computing facilities.
We also have more staff to make sure you can access the support you need.
Subject-specific resources
Our close links with external bodies ensure that we have easy access to subject-specific resources.
For example, film students get access to the legendary Pinewood and Shepperton film studios, while most health and social care students work on-site at St George’s Hospital.
Online resources
StudySpace, our learning management system, is a potentially limitless resource for lecture notes and interactive teaching.
My Kingston, our student intranet, is both an online source of student services information and a virtual workspace.
Research facilities
Kingston University continues to invest in a wide range of research facilities and resources.
