MOULSECOOMB CAMPUS
SELF-GUIDED TOUR
Welcome to Moulsecoomb Campus – the University of Brighton’s biggest and busiest student hub.
With five halls, a buzzing Students’ Union bar and a modern gym, it’s a place where students from the School of Architecture, Technology and Engineering, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, School of Business and Law, and the School of Applied Sciences come together.
Just two miles from the city centre, Moulsecoomb is surrounded by new cafés, shops and social spaces, making it a great spot to study, meet friends and feel part of the community.
Watch this short tour of Moulsecoomb campus with one of our students, Naomi Spence.
STOP 1: MITHRAS HOUSE
Mithras House is home to students studying architecture, interiors, humanities and social sciences. It’s full of seminar rooms, lecture theatres, studios and plenty of study spaces to dip into between classes.
On the first floor you’ll find specialised humanities and psychology labs where students get hands‑on with research. Head up to the top floor and you’ll reach the open‑plan studios for architecture and interiors students, collaborative spaces where ideas, sketches and models come to life.
