Learning & Teaching BuildingWhat's inside

The student journey

The whole idea of the Learning & Teaching building is to focus on all aspects of the student journey - from your very first days at Strathclyde to graduation and beyond.

In the new building, the majority of our student support services are available under one roof.

Take a look below at a selection of what the Learning and Teaching building has to offer.

State-of-the-art facilities for students

The Learning & Teaching building includes:

  • a 400-seat lecture theatre with a sky wall divider
  • break-out rooms for social learning
  • tutorial rooms
  • more than 50 small meeting and group work spaces (these spaces have the ability to beam content from group desks to main screen and vice-versa)
  • rooms use high definition, wide-angle intelligent cameras. If your friends dial in on Zoom or Teams, you can see whoever is talking, even if they’re not directly in front of the screen
  • LCD panels on trolleys - these allow you to turn almost any space in to a collaborative working space
  • lecture theatres with high definition screens. The theatres have the ability to beam out audio and video to every other room in the building

Wellbeing & student support

As well as focussing on all aspects of the student journey, the Learning & Teaching building has a big emphasis on wellbeing. Student support services available in the building include:

  • access, equality & inclusion
  • accommodation desk
  • careers & employability
  • counselling
  • disability & wellbeing
  • international student support
  • wellbeing room (including provision for yoga, meditation and hypnotherapy)

Our student support services have much more visibility in the new building and there's much greater flexibility between services.
