Location & Facilities

QMU is located on the southeast side of Edinburgh, Scotland's beautiful capital city. The University moved to a new purpose built campus in 2007 housing a vibrant academic village with innovative learning spaces, attractive landscaped spaces and excellent transport links to the city centre, including a train link which takes just 7 minutes to reach the city centre.

The new campus includes student residences, a student union building, indoor sports facilities and all weather surfaces, a variety of catering outlets, a shop and landscaped gardens with a range of environmental features. The design takes full account of the needs of today's students. Current students have been consulted throughout the relocation project, from involvement in the choice of site and input into the design of buildings, to decisions on the types of catering facilities on campus. There is appropriate disabled access to residences and academic buildings.
