Docklands Campus
Docklands Campus
The world on your doorstep
East London is our home, but we’re also well connected to the rest of the capital and the world. Our Docklands campus is located steps away from a Docklands Light Railway (DLR) station, and the Elizabeth Line links nearby Custom House to central London in 15 minutes. London City Airport sits just across the river. You can fly from London City Airport to many destinations, including Ireland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Croatia and Poland.
Campus tour
We’re one of the only universities in London to have a self-contained campus – you'll find almost everything you need at Docklands. You’ll study in stunning waterfront surroundings and always be close to the opportunities central London offers.
