Facilities

Canterbury Campus

We want you to succeed, to be happy, to feel comfortable and to express yourself. You'll be studying in a nurturing and sympathetic environment where diversity, equality and inclusivity are part of everything we do.

New creative arts building

Our new creative arts building is supporting and inspiring the next generation of artistic professionals with the latest digital facilities to support creativity and future careers.

This exciting creative hub is named after Daphne Oram, co-founder of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and a tutor here during the 1980s. It was opened by former Director of the Tate and now Chair of Arts Council England, Sir Nicholas Serota, in 2019.

Explore the 360s on this page to get an idea of what these new facilities are like. Better still why not visit us at an Open Day and see for yourself?
