UEL Docklands Campus

The new UEL London Docklands Campus is the first completely new
university campus built in London for over 50 years. Located in the
Royal Docks, Europe’s largest enclosed water space, phase one is an
architecturally stunning complex of buildings. It has been designed as a
complete living and working environment, with a full range of facilities
and amenities, including its own Docklands Light Railway station. It is
said that the last two visible structures visible to an astronaut
leaving earth are the vast expanse of Cape Canaveral and the shimmer of
the Royal Docks.

The campus has been created to be open to the community and to business,
so that the life of the University actively engages with the
cosmopolitan culture and growing economy of East London.

How to get to Docklands Campus

The campus is next to Cyprus Station on the Docklands Light Railway
(DLR) which connects with tubes and trains for access to the whole of
London and London main terminus stations.

There is ample parking for students, staff and visitors.

the campus, visit  http://www.uel.ac.uk
