Update on the build of the Institute's new University Centre

The plans for the new University Centre at our Nuns Corner site have been gathering pace and as part of our commitment to keep students, staff and the general public informed of its progression, the following is an update of the current situation.

Representatives from the Facilities, Health & Safety & Timetabling Departments intend to post regular updates informing everyone of any developments or changes that could significantly change the way that our site is used.

From Wednesday 12th May we are in the 'demolition phase' of the building works, which will take us up to the start of June.

Grimsby's new University Centre

The design of the building has been targeted towards achieving a "Very Good" Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method Assessment (BREEAM) assessment.

BREEAM is the leading and most widely used environmental assessment method for buildings. It sets the standard for best practice in sustainable design and has become the measure used to describe a building's environmental performance, and the build will have a final assessment once the construction is completed.
