Workshops
The workshop suite is a major teaching and research resource used by students and staff at all levels.
Students in all of our programmes are encouraged to learn about materials by 'hands on' practicals. The range of practical activities includes model making, building component prototyping, structural testing, sculpture in wood and metal - activities which generally reflect the varied interests of both students and staff. Full supervision and advice is provided.
