Campus and Facilities

Our campus is close to the centre of York, a city with great culture and history. Investing in our campus means we are always improving our specialist facilities and building new spaces for you. We have recently expanded the specialist facilities for our Performance, Computer Science, and Music courses in the Creative Centre. Our new state-of-the-art Nursing and Paramedic facilities are now being used to train students across our health courses.

With a strong campus community ethos, the Students' Union (SU) is a great place to relax with friends and attend various social events throughout the year. The SU is home to a bar, Starbucks coffee shop, and the Students’ Union team offices. With over 60 sports and societies to get involved with, you'll find something to join in with whatever your interests.

We have places across campus for you to get food and drinks, keeping you fuelled for your studies.

We have spaces on campus for worship, reflection, and meditation. These include The Chapel, Contemplation Room, Muslim Prayer Room, and a Quiet Room. We welcome all members of the University in our sacred spaces.
