Student spaces

Most of the engineering laboratories in the Diamond are designed to accommodate 80 students. Supporting these laboratories is a dedicated Diamond engineering team of over 40 staff, who will work closely with each of the engineering departments to ensure the activities you undertake integrate with your degree programme.

There is also a Project Space and Workshop for students to undertake practical work in their own time.
