Study and resource rooms

We have a range of accessible study and resource rooms, including dedicated spaces for students with disabilities.

Our dedicated spaces are designed to support you in your studies. They are intended to be used as quiet study spaces. All are equipped with adjustable desks, ergonomic chairs and computing facilities.

Access is provided through Student Disability Services. Talk to your disability case manager or make a request via your Student Access Portal if you are interested in using one of these spaces.

Please note that you will need to agree to terms and conditions of use before you are provided with access.
