Nottingham Business School Facilities
As a Nottingham Business School student, you’ll have access to fantastic facilities that have been designed to provide you with a unique and invaluable experience.
Newton
The Newton Building is the heart of the City Campus, and the home of Nottingham Business School. The building includes outstanding teaching and social spaces, study areas and events and conferencing facilities.
The University has invested £90 million in the regeneration of Newton and Arkwright, that boasts outstanding teaching and social spaces, study areas and events and conferencing facilities.
Across the Newton Building there are four computer rooms, each with a 20-person capacity as well as a 50-seat open access area. There is also a 20-unit laptop loan dispenser in Newton Building. These computer facilities can be used by students or can be scheduled for computer workshops.
Link Lounge
The Link Lounge is a dedicated space for our business students to work, read, revise and learn. It is full of facilities to bring your learning to life and help you get the most out of your course.
Located on Level 0 of the Newton Building next to the Business Lab and lecture theatres, the Link Lounge reception provides you the opportunity to book appointments to see lecturers and staff. It is likely that your sessions with your academic mentor will take place here at the heart of the Business School.
Business labs
NBS students have access to the Business Lab, a trading room that comes equipped with Bloomberg software, giving you access to live financial data from around the world. Equipped with 25 double-screen workstations, you can follow the performance of global markets and even create your own portfolio of stocks.
It's the perfect resource to help our students become business professionals, particularly those aiming for a career in the finance and investment industry.
