The Faculty of Engineering, Computing and the Environment was formed in 2022. Its schools bring together interdisciplinary research, improving the scope of the student experience and encouraging partnerships between academia and commerce.
Through a collaborative approach, the Faculty offers greater access to resources, knowledge and information and a broader perspective on its subjects, with teaching and research staff working more closely with their colleagues in other disciplines.
Kingston University will be making some changes to the structure of this Faculty from 1 August 2022.
Courses in the current Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing will be delivered in two new Faculties:
Teaching on undergraduate and postgraduate courses currently delivered by the Faculty will continue as usual and students should notice very little change on a practical level.
Science, Engineering and Computing researchers from Kingston University and the University of Nottingham have developed a new artificial intelligence system that can create 3D selfies of people's faces from a single photograph.
We offer our students the opportunity to learn and grow in a real-world environment. Combined with our hands-on approach to teaching and learning, this provides our students with the skills ready for their chosen industry.
These skills are taught within our world-class facilities, providing our students with some of the most innovative and advanced technology in order to have the freedom to invent, create and revolutionise their practice.
See each course page for the facilities you might use, below are some of our most cutting-edge facilities.
Our aircraft engineering students have access to our fully equipped Learjet Lab, this provides them with the tools and a real world hands-on experience to gain strong career prospects for the future
Our computer science and gaming students have full access to the University's CAVE (Centre for Augmented and Virtual Reality Environments), a treasure trove of specialist equipment.
Kingston University is based in Kingston upon Thames, a busy riverside town on the borders of London and Surrey, with central London just 30 minutes away by train.
