A technology-led building
Our £20m state-of-the-art building provides an innovative environment and resources designed for today's Electronic Engineering.
Designed with large, modern lecture spaces for teaching, the latest technical facilities and equipment, social collaboration spaces, research and project fabrication, computing and electronics laboratories, it provides an ideal base for scientists and engineers to achieve their goals. The inclusion of a field laboratory on the roof with solar panels and a wind turbine gives hands-on practical experience with alternative energy generation.
Royal Holloway received a £5m grant from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) to develop the new building in order to encourage more female engineers to address the national shortage, and it has provided a fantastic home for our Electronic Engineering community.
This technology-led facility is designed to inspire students and staff, to develop a creative approach to study, learning and research, and extend our vision for the future.
