Investing in Your Future

In 2022, we spent part of a £2million investment from the Office for Students (OfS) on leading-edge teaching facilities in Digital Arts and Digital Technologies, including VR software and a 3D Powerwall.

We have since been awarded a further £6million and have created a Digital Technology Hub, including two Cyber Security Labs and two Immersive Technology Labs, which head of Digital Technologies Kevin Hillary talks about here.

We have also invested in:

  • Full Performance Capture suits and software

  • Oculus Quest gaming headsets

  • Black Magic cameras

  • Raspberry Pi4 desktop kits

  • Clevertouch screens

  • AI robots

Plus, we'll also be creating a dedicated Digital Technology Hub, which will include two Cyber Securuity Labs and two Immersive Technology Labs.
