included reducing the cost of keeping the estate and creating a more sustainable campus along with increasing the level of excellent or very good accommodation. These were identifi ed by the architects at the master planning stage early on in the project’s timeline and were the driving force behind the delivery of all the building design.” In January 2015, the UK’s fi rst ever
Career College opens and will be housed in a new £9m facility. It will specialise in skills for digital and creative industries, combining academic knowledge with practical industry experience and understanding for its students. The fi rst of its kind in the country, it aims to develop the next generation of skilled people who can make anything possible through software, design, technology and creativity. Planning permission has recently come through for the fi nal new building in the current redevelopment plan due to open in April 2015. This will be home to hair and beauty courses and a commercial salon plus classroom-based learning for travel and tourism, sport and uniformed public services learning.

An important new addition to the Greenwich Campus will soon open its doors to students, including the UK's largest landscaped roof. In a key location on
Stockwell Street, at the heart of the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site, this state-of-the- art building includes a purpose-built home for disciplines in architecture, construction, creative media and digital design. Students from across the campus will use the building’s new library (double the size of the current one, with 370 study spaces and over 130,000 volumes) as well as its lecture theatres, seminar rooms and other facilities.
Alongside open
plan learning spaces, contemporary lecture theatres and exhibition spaces, the building will also provide computer suites and social spaces for meetings, study and accessing learning technologies. Designed to encourage the buzz of exchange and collaboration, it will bring the public even closer to the life of the university, with access to the on-site café, exhibition
space and shop. There will also be public access to the university’s unique historical archives detailing its fascinating heritage. The investment
programme also includes the nearby Daniel Defoe hall of residence, which will provide 358 en-suite rooms for students as well as a café and gym for residents. Sustainability underpins both these projects, contributing to the university’s already outstanding green credentials. Both have been designed to BREEAM ‘Excellent’ standards and the new building at Stockwell Street has also been awarded two prestigious BREEAM innovation credits.
