Brunel's campus is designed to be your one-stop shop for student life. We have lots of on-site cafés and restaurants catering to all tastes; a pharmacy and medical centre; a small supermarket; a state-of-the-art sports complex and an extensive library offering dedicated study spaces - the perfect environment to focus.
Finding a perfect on-campus home is easy. Brunel guarantees accommodation for all new students who meet their course conditions and apply for a room by the end of August. Our modern and secure halls are all within a 10-minute walk from everything you need, so you won’t have to commute and can immerse yourself fully in campus life.
Brunel's cutting-edge labs offer industry-standard equipment, encompassing specialised engineering tools and we even have a simulated hospital ward in our Medical School. The Wilfred Brown building, purpose-built for STEM students, is built with sustainability in mind, exemplifying Brunel's commitment to innovation.
Students can unleash their creativity in our dedicated arts facilities. They can hone their acting skills in the drama studios, jam in the music room, or delve into filmmaking with professional-grade video editing suites. Our visual effects studio boasts industry-standard technology, allowing students to master the art of digital compositing and animation.

Student life
Brunel is a friendly, welcoming campus community with plenty of opportunities to meet new people and try new things. There are so many food outlets to choose from, all just steps away from each other. You can start your day with an English breakfast at the Junction. Later on, you could grab yourself a bite at the pop-up food stall, order a pizza, grab a Subway, taste our tortillas or experience the flavours of the Middle East at Beseha. You can also catch up with friends over coffee and a snack at the Coffee Room or the 1966 café. The campus supermarket is very convenient for stocking up on essentials. We may be only a short tube journey from the centre of one of the most bustling cities in the world, but that doesn’t mean that we lack green space. As a Green Flag award winner, we’re proud of our leafy campus. There are plenty of quiet places to sit or to walk and a pretty river runs through the centre of campus. When you want to have some downtime, you can socialise with friends in our student bar, ‘Loco’s’ or dance the night away at our very own club ‘The Venue’.
Our campus has a thriving arts and culture scene and we encourage students to develop creative skills themselves. They can soak up the atmosphere as a spectator or get more hands-on and help organise events, as well as perform in them. This cultural backdrop is a great opportunity for students to get involved and feel inspired.
The Student Centre is here to help Students through the student journey from registration to graduation while The Student Wellbeing team provides support services to help Brunel students overcome challenges so that they can achieve their university goals.
The Union of Brunel Students is here to ensure that every Brunel student has the opportunity to enjoy, challenge, influence and benefit from all aspects of their studies and the wider student experience. The Union is a charity that is led by students for students and you automatically become a member when you enrol at Brunel. They’re committed to voicing student opinions and enable debates on key issues, they organise events and entertainment, as well as facilitating clubs and societies. The Union is there to give students advice and support throughout the student journey. The Union’s Advice Service provides free and confidential advice on everything from money and debt to housing and academic issues. They also host lots of evening entertainment with the ever-popular karaoke and Loco’s Quiz. There are more than 130 sports clubs and societies that students can join, from the Arts and Crafts Society, to a range of cultural societies and subject-specific groups, where you can socialise with other students. Our sports clubs are free to use for all students, once they join Team Brunel.
Just a short walk away from campus, the town of Uxbridge offers everything you need to shop and socialise. It’s also the perfect base to explore the surrounding the local countryside. Close to Brunel, there are plenty of parks and gardens as well as the nearby Grand Union Canal which is perfect for a stroll.
Brunel doesn't just educate, we empower. We pioneered the ‘sandwich courses’ that integrate paid work placements into our degrees, ensuring our students graduate with the skills and real-world experience employers seek. Most of our undergraduate courses and a growing number of postgraduate courses offer placement opportunities. Placements give you the opportunity to gain experience and enhance your skills within a workplace environment. Students who complete a placement achieve higher degree classifications, better career outcomes and significantly higher graduate salaries. You’ll have access to a dedicated Placement and Careers Advisor linked to your course, and benefit from our vast range of contacts in industries of all sizes. We can support you throughout the application process, including preparing for interviews to help you secure the placement that is right for you.
