Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
The Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing was formed in 2011 and is comprised of three schools, bringing 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.
Changes being made from 1 August 2022
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:
- the Faculty of Health, Science, Social Care and Education, which will bring together the School of Life Sciences, Pharmacy and Chemistry, currently based in the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing, with the School of Nursing and School of Education, Midwifery and Social Work, currently in the Faculty of Health, Social Care and Education.
- the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and the Environment, made up of the School of Engineering and the Environment and the School of Computer Science and Mathematics, both at the moment forming the remainder of the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing.
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.
Why choose Science, Engineering and Computing?
Practice-based learning
Our students benefit from a practice-based, hands-on education informed by innovative research to ensure our graduates have the skills and knowledge required to work in the industry.
Interdisciplinary work
Across our courses we aim to provide a collaborative way of working that allows our graduates to develop key skills, knowledge and practice.
Links with the industry
We pride ourselves on promoting strong industrial involvement in all our degree programmes, ensuring our courses are at the forefront of the discipline.
World-class facilities
Our industry standard laboratories and equipment provide plenty of opportunities to put theory into practice and gain valuable experience using the tools you'll find in the workplace - as well as some more unique equipment too.
Focus on...
3D selfies
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.
World-class facilities
In the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing 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 three of our most cutting edge facilities.
Scene of the crime house
Our forensic science students have access to the scene of the crime house, which allows students to gain real-world practical experience using both specialist equipment and precise techniques.
Learjet Lab
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
CAVE
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, London
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.
