Teaching spaces refurbishment works
With less teaching space being used in the summer months, we're taking the opportunity to do some minor works in six of our buildings.
The Arts Tower
Four lecture theatres in the Arts Tower basement will have the floors sanded and revarnished. Damaged tables will be replaced and acoustic panels on the walls repaired, alongside the walls being painted. There will also be a full replacement of the audio-visual equipment.
Timeframe: May - July
Firth Hall
Improvements will be made to The Council Room, F02 and F02a. Work will be done to make the rooms more accessible, and acoustic panels and curtains will be added to The Council Room. The existing video conferencing facilities which were added as a temporary measure will be replaced with permanent equipment.
Timeframe: May - August
Hicks Building
Wifi, audio-visual facilities and data outlets will be improved across six rooms within the building.
Timeframe: May - November
Broad Lane Building
Essential maintenance work to three large lecture theatres will be undertaken at the same time as replacing some windows and improving the audio-visual facilities.
Timeframe: June - September
Samuel Fox House, Northern General Hospital
There will be improved audio-visual facilities alongside a thorough clean and light re-decoration.
Timeframe: May - July
The Medical School, Royal Hallamshire Hospital
Some chairs at the school will be reupholstered to prolong their usability and to improve their aesthetic.
Timeframe: TBC - not expected to take more than one month.
