Nottingham Trent University - Campuses

Campuses

The university has three campuses:

City site

Located just north of Nottingham City Centre, the City site is home to over 16,000 students from Nottingham Business School, Nottingham Law School, School of Architecture, Design and the Built Environment, School of Art & Design, School of Social Sciences and the Centre for Broadcasting & Journalism. The City site has recently completed an ambitious £70 million development, which regenerated Newton and Arkwright, two of the university's largest and oldest owned buildings. On Wednesday 18 May 2011, the two buildings were officially opened by Sir David Attenborough.

Clifton campus

Home to over 7,000 students from the School of Arts and Humanities, School of Science and Technology and School of Education. Four miles outside the city centre, the Clifton campus is a self-contained, greenfield site. It hosts an Anthony Nolan Trust Cord Blood Bank, and the newly operational John van Geest Cancer Research Centre, recipient of the largest research grant awarded to a post-1992 university. The Clifton campus has benefited from recent investment including the new Lee Westwood Sports Centre and new accommodation. Students at Clifton can use their own Students’ Union bar, gym, shop, cafés and library. Clifton campus is linked to the City site by a regular student bus service.

Brackenhurst campus

Home to over 1,000 students from the School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Sciences. About 14 miles from the city centre, Brackenhurst campus is a countryside estate with woodland, a lake and landscaped gardens. Contrasting the country house built in 1828 are facilities including the high-tech glasshouse and new Veterinary Nursing building. The Veterinary Nursing Centre was purpose-built in 2007 and was made a RCVS accredited Veterinary Nursing Centre. It has a simulated Veterinary Practice giving students hands-on experience.
