Jubilee Campus



         


Jubilee Campus is a campus of the University of Nottingham, England. It primarily houses the Computer science, Business and Education schools of the University. The campus is also the location of the National College of School Leadership.

The campus opened in 1999, and is located about a mile away from the University's main University Park Campus. It was designed by the architect Sir Michael Hopkins and won the 2000 BCIA award for 'Building of the Year' and the 2001 Stirling Prize for Sustainable Development. Its name derives from the fact that 1998 was the golden jubilee of the granting of a Royal Charter to the university, making it an independent degree-granting organisation.

Like the University Park Campus, the campus has been constructed around a lake and contains plenty of greenery. The campus also contains many innovative environmental elements such as grass roofs and solar panels. Particularly striking is the library, the Sir Harry and Lady Djanogly Learning Resource Centre, a circular building situated in the middle of the lake.
