Three great campus locations
We have three campuses, two in south-east London in the Royal Borough of Greenwich and one in Kent. All three have a village-like vibe as teaching and socialising spaces and student accommodation are on-site or only a short walk away.
Greenwich Campus
sits in the middle of the historic town centre of Greenwich – a major tourist destination with royal connections. Everything you need is on your doorstep – shops, bars and cafés, plus major attractions including the Cutty Sark and Royal Maritime Museum, Greenwich Market and Greenwich Park, as well as being close to all the action in central London.
Avery Hill Campus
is a leafy campus in Eltham, south-east London – just a short journey away from Greenwich campus on our free eco-friendly buses. Teaching spaces and halls of residence are all on-site and, if you’re into fitness, you’ll love our great sports facilities. You can grab a bite to eat and enjoy the chill-out areas in the Dome, which is at the heart of the campus.
Medway Campus
is a beautiful redbrick campus in Medway, Kent. Everything you need is on-site, so you don’t have to venture far for anything. The Hub building is home to the Students' Union. It’s where you'll find the Deep End, which has places to eat, lots of theme nights and a bar. Just 45 minutes away from Greenwich with our regular inter-campus bus service.
