In 2025, multiple critical projects began to modernise our historic campus, as part of the South Kensington Redevelopment programme.
By creating more lecture theatres, study spaces, and a home for a range of student support services we are improving our campus for current and future students, enabling academic growth.
The projects on Levels 3, 4 and 5 of the Sherfield Building completed in time for the start of term in October 2025. The Great Hall will reopen during the spring term 2027.
Our construction teams invite you to take a peek behind the hoardings, to see what progress we have made.
