Multi Media Room - MMR

There is nothing like watching a blockbuster on the big screen in High Definition with 5.1 Digital Surround Sound, is there?... Yes, there is... having a Play Station 3 connected to the SAME screen :) Our MMR has it all. Choose from a selection of PS3 games, bring along your own movies in DVD and BluRay or just connect your laptop to the beamer; then sit back and enjoy the ride!

Quiet Study Areas - QSAs

But in the end the whole point of going to a university is to study! Of course you can do that in the comfort of your rooms but sometimes a more suitable environment is needed. Our QSAs allow students to study in a guaranteed quiet environment, both in groups and individually. The QSAs also offer printing and scanning facilities.
