Postgraduate facilities
Innovative spaces inspire innovative thinking – that's why we've invested £450 million into our facilities and campuses in the last 10 years. At NTU you'll master your field, with the support of dedicated postgraduate study spaces and outstanding facilities.
Dedicated postgraduate study spaces
As a postgraduate student your expectations of study and research are considerably different to undergraduate students. We have nearly 100 dedicated postgraduate study spaces in our Boots Library, along with a bookable study room for group projects, giving you the right environment to excel in your studies.
