University Campuses
Since 2005, the university has been working towards the acquisition of many new sites across the city and its long- term strategy aims to build a joint community and more university facilities, with expansion to a third campus. With over a quarter of a million books and 12 miles of archive collections, The Hive is a library and study facility which was officially opened by Her Majesty The Queen in 2012. It boasts a busy events programme, with regular public lectures, exhibitions and performances for the community and the students (it is a joint venture with the Worcestershire County Council).
All UK pollen forecasts originate from university’s National Pollen and Aerobiology Research Unit. It boasts the Carbon Trust Standard award and was the first English university to receive a Gold EcoCampus Award, shortly after gaining the Silver Eco-Campus Status in 2008.
