Birmingham's new sports centre is planned to sit on the corner of Bristol Road and Edgbaston Park Road. It will be a large multi-sport facility for students, staff and the local community, and will include the city’s first 50-metre swimming pool. A new library will provide improved opportunities for community access to the vast University collections, and cultural heritage. The Student Services Hub will see part of the interior of the main Aston Webb Building remodelled to house a number of different services including employability, careers and a 400-seat lecture theatre.
The University is located five minutes from the heart of the city of Birmingham, a city with a heritage of multiculturalism and non-conformism, with campuses in the Edgbaston and Selly Oak areas of the city of Birmingham.
