糖心原创

Triangle

Whether you're travelling by car, tram or train, getting to our Experience Days and travelling between campuses is easy. Most of our campuses are not far from Nottingham city centre.

The only exceptions are the School of Biosciences and the Vet School based at our Sutton Bonington Campus. This campus is still easily accessible by public or private transport.

The campus you need to travel to will be detailed on your booking confirmation email and on the UoN Open Days app. If your subject activity is taking place here, you should arrive at University Park Campus first and head to the Great Hall, Trent Building (building number 11 on the map)
