BELONGING ON CAMPUS
We are proud of the great places we’ve created for you to learn and live in – inspiring, inclusive, accessible and sustainable spaces where you’ll be learning alongside students with shared academic interests. As well as giving you access to the facilities you’ll need to succeed, being on campus is where you’ll connect and belong.
YOUR CAMPUSES
Your course will be based at one of our three campuses in Brighton.
Each campus has been designed for the subjects that are taught there. All have halls of residence on site, so you could be living within minutes of your classes. And Brighton is so compact; moving between campuses is easy and you can choose where to go to study, eat, work out or catch up with your friends.
Wiktoria, film
I like how City campus is central – it’s literally in the heart of the city which makes it easy to socialise with my classmates. By far my favourite part is the kit room. It’s filled with industry-standard cameras and equipment available to take out any time we want.
Eva, pharmacy
Although I study at Moulsecoomb campus, I often visit Falmer campus for sports, it’s only 10 minutes on the train from the city centre. I used to live close to City campus so I used St Peters House library a lot. I love that it’s in an old converted building, it’s retained the vintage vibe on the inside which is really nice, and although I study pharmacy I’m always intrigued by the old art and fashion books they have in there.
Kacey, economics
I am based at Moulsecoomb campus and absolutely love the modern feel and resources available; classrooms are big in size and always have great technology, and it’s a lovely environment to learn in. There are also lots of cafes and a huge library, which are great spaces to meet with peers and get some further learning done outside of lectures.
Brighton is known for its green attitude so there’s a brilliant infrastructure of cycle paths and bus routes, and Falmer, Moulsecoomb and the city are also all connected by train. But it’s so compact and easy to get around, if you can, you’ll choose to roam on foot.
CITY CAMPUS
Our city centre campus is home to 3D design and craft, fine art, graphic design, illustration, digital music, digital media design, fashion and textiles, media, photography and film.
Our facilities for making and designing, workshops, studios, archives, galleries and the independent arts organisations based on site make for an inspiring creative environment. All within minutes of the beach.
MOULSECOOMB CAMPUS
Wherever your classes are, you’ll want to spend some time at Moulsecoomb – it’s our biggest campus and student village and half of our students are based there. There are five halls on campus, as well as the Students’ Union bar and a gym with cardio and weights suites, studios and a programme of classes.
Students studying subjects like architecture, business, computing, construction, engineering, geography, product design, law, pharmacy, journalism, creative writing, politics and psychology are all based at Moulsecoomb. Buildings like Elm House and Mithras House have been designed with big communal spaces for people to meet. Moulsecoomb is just two miles from the city centre and seafront and it’s an area that the city is investing in, with new cafes, shops and social spaces – plenty of places for our students to enjoy and be part of the community.
FALMER CAMPUS
All our education, sport and health sciences subjects are based at the Falmer campus, with great facilities and beautiful surroundings. It’s a short ride on the bus or train – or there are cycle lanes all the way from the city centre.
There are halls on campus, fantastic sport and fitness facilities, as well as places to eat and a Students’ Union meeting place and cafe bar. You can be living and studying on the edge of the South Downs with the city centre and seafront just four miles away, within easy reach. And Falmer draws visitors to it: Premiership Brighton & Hove Albion’s Amex stadium and beautiful Stanmer Park are next door.
Kerry, education
We can use the library on any Brighton campus. I like being able to study even when I’m in town. The number of books we have access to is incredible. I love using the libraries when I’m on a break from lectures and the online library is a go-to for any research.
Kristian, music business and media
During my time on Moulsecoomb campus, I’ve watched the spaces transform around me. With modern study facilities equipped with specialist technologies like a professional TV studio, sound booths and photography spaces – the campus is a hive of activity for people looking to be creative and do big things. There’s also new spaces to collaborate, socialise and relax – like the student bar located in the heart of the campus.
Angelica, English literature and creative writing
I love studying at Falmer because the views from the classrooms are beautiful, and I love being so close to Stanmer Park, as I often go there for walks before or after lectures.

WHERE YOU'LL LEARN
As well as tutorials and lectures, lots of our courses involve learning in realistic simulated environments, with equipment and facilities that replicate those in industry and professional workplaces. Whether you’re working in a lab, a studio or a simulation suite, you’ll have support from technicians who’ll help you to develop new skills.
Emmanuel, pharmacy
I enjoy studying in the Aldrich library. There are laptops to use which I find so helpful for doing coursework when I don’t want to bring my laptop in. It’s divided into different floors which allow different levels of noise; I like studying in the quiet areas on the top floor where I can concentrate on my work without interruptions, but I also enjoy being on the ground floor where I can talk, hang out with friends and take breaks.
There are libraries at all of our campuses, with extended opening hours into the evening and weekends. You’ll also use the online library, with thousands of ebooks, databases and full-text journals. Our team of information professionals are on hand to help you find the specialist resources you need and get the most out of the library resources.
