Our psychology labs feature all of the latest equipment, including an EEG scanner and eye tracking equipment, and state-of-the-art software such as E-Prime, SPSS, Pinnacle Studio and NVIVO.

Mock Crown Court

One of our two mock courtrooms, our Crown Court is used to simulate a real courtroom feel. It is used as much as possible to ensure you are comfortable talking in front of a jury and a judge when you graduate.

Link Agency

We have our own student-run, in-house marketing agency, The Link, where you can sharpen your skills with briefs and projects from leading businesses and organisations, such as Edgbaston Cricket Ground, Serco and Cure Leukaemia.

Starbucks

We have two Starbucks coffee pods in Curzon, with one situated on the third floor, and another on the first floor of Curzon B. So you're never too far away from a latte!

The biggest library at the University, the City Centre Library not only houses textbooks and media items for Business, Law and Social Sciences subjects, but also everything from Art and Media to Engineering and Architecture. 

Collectively, our libraries provide access to around 62 million resources including books, online journals and e-book chapters.
