Science, engineering and environment’s new home

OUR science, engineering and environment courses will soon be delivered from their new £65 million home in the heart of our Peel Park campus.

We are building a world class sustainable four-storey building, which will occupy 15,500 square metres and is part of a £2.5 billion Crescent Masterplan. A 240 acre major regeneration scheme being delivered by the University, Salford City Council and development partner, The English Cities Fund. The scheme is aimed at driving economic and social prosperity for the whole of the city. The new building will feature a wind tunnel and high-spec laser laboratories. The whole building is also served by electricity only. The primary heat source for all systems is electric air source heat pumps – it is a 100% electric building! The work on the new building is due to be complete in the summer of 2022 and will bring together teaching and world class research, providing our students unique opportunities that prepare them for the real world.
