Kaplan Business School Campus
Our excellent city centre location and state of the art premises help to create a sense of community on our Kaplan Business School campus. The building facilitates our personal approach of smaller class sizes, providing a collaborative and social learning environment. We maintain an open door policy to all students and have achieved this through establishing both our tutor and careers offices within the main area of the campus making them easily accessible.
Tutors offices
Our tutors' offices are situated near the main student area of the campus, making tutors very accessible. We want every student to feel comfortable knocking on a tutor’s door and asking for help or advice at any time.
If tutors are away from the office they will leave a note to this effect on the board outside their room, giving you the opportunity to decide if you wish to seek help from another tutor if necessary.
Administration office
Our administration office team covers a number of functions from compiling the course timetables, ensuring course materials are available for each course, organising assessments and being the key point for the hand in and collection of projects. We are available for student queries during office hours and can help with day to day administration tasks as well as providing advice and information on the local area such as where the nearest doctors/dentist can be found.
Our campus uses plasma screens in the main reception area to act as an additional means of communication with students, either as a reminder of deadlines, to highlight matters arising that day, or to invite you to social events.
Careers office
Our aim is to support you fully with your career aspirations and to help you reach informed career choices. Our careers office incorporates a comprehensive business and legal careers library and is situated close to the student area.
Our team of specialist advisers and personal tutors work closely with our professional contacts to give you up-to-date information and advice. We can provide insights into the cultures of different firms and organisations, helping you make a more informed choice of where you are best suited to apply.
Breakout area
Our student breakout area is the hub of our campus with soft seating, a café style area with internet access and refreshment facilities, providing you with the ideal space to relax outside of class.
Students often build friendships with other students outside their own teaching group and across qualifications through the social environment of the student area. This helps to widen your network of peers for your future career.
The breakout area is also used to host fundraising and social events such as cake sales and quiz nights. Lockers are available to all students so you do not have to carry all your books around with you each day.
Sports and social
A healthy lifestyle is proven to enhance academic performance, reduce stress and give you a positive outlook. We want you to enjoy a full and varied life as a student whether you are an elite athlete or a complete novice. Each year a Sports and Social Committee is formed and we contribute to various costs for teams to help them set up. See the students union website www.kbsu.org.uk
Our students can also take advantage of a special discounted membership of the gym at ULU, used by University of London students amongst others. Situated at ULU on Malet Street, facilities include a club bar with quiz nights and other activities, a fitness centre and a swimming pool.
