We’ve invested more than £80m over the last decade on new and renovated buildings, part of our commitment to providing an outstanding student experience. We're also transforming our campus for the future, with the opening of a new creative arts building in 2019 and a new £65m STEM facility in 2020.

New £65m building for 2020

We're opening a major facility for science, technology, health, engineering and medicine. 

This impressive building is home to our new and dynamic range of industry-relevant engineering courses. These courses, and new spaces for research and innovation, focus on creativity in engineering, designing real-world solutions and opening up excellent career opportunities for our students and graduates. 

Medical School

The new Kent and Medway Medical School (KMMS), a collaboration between Canterbury Christ Church and the University of Kent, will provide first-class medical education. The new specialist facilities, bringing together engineering, medicine and health, will be an important base for KMMS student doctors studying at both universities.  

Creativity on campus

The Daphne Oram creative arts building has state-of-the-art facilities for music, performance, games design, media, photography and graphic design. It will inspire and support the next generations of creative professionals and entrepreneurs by:

  • enabling the teaching of contemporary working practices in the digital age
  • showcasing the work and talents of students and staff
  • facilitating diverse connections with arts and culture partners and businesses.

It's another hub for the city's arts and culture and further enhances our contribution to the fast-growing creative industries in the local and national economy.

These new facilities complement our existing TV and radio studios in the Powell building and performing arts spaces in Anselm studios and the Maxwell-Davies building.
