University Centre Colchester | Our Campus

Located in the heart of Colchester, the University Centre Colchester campus is a short walk from the centre of town.

We continue to invest in exciting new facilities ensuring you have access to the best possible resources during your time with us. Our £10m Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) Centre opened in 2016, and provides a range of cutting-edge training resources.

The campus is multicultural, diverse and all-inclusive.Angie Gains, BA (Hons) Person-Centred Counselling

Our brand new library in the STEM Centre offers individual sessions with the learning resources team in order to support your coursework and research. There is a large collection of online resources and equipment available to hire. The inter-library loan scheme provides access to an even wider range of publications from libraries elsewhere in the UK. University Centre Colchester students have access to their own dedicated common room, quiet study areas and lecture rooms.

Throughout the campus there’s a great choice of places to eat, with an award-winning restaurant, coffee shops, and multiple refectories. We also have a free gym and on-site hair and beauty salons, with regular discounts!

It has such a good atmosphere and it’s easily accessible.Angela Godwin, BA (Hons) 3D Design and Craft
