• The School of Mathematical Sciences moved back into the newly transformed Maths Building in September 2019. The University invested £18m in the building project, which brought about a complete transformation of the 1960s building on Mile End Road.
  The building includes a range of working and learning spaces including:
  71 academic offices
  A School Office to accommodate the whole Professional Services team
  72 PhD desks in one office the full length of the south side of the building
  Private and group study areas – including dedicated areas for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and academic hubs
  A dedicated room for maths research seminars
  State of the art mathematics lecture theatre and two teaching rooms
  An IT Lab for master level students
  An office for post-doctoral researchers
  Students and staff benefit from a range of social spaces including the new Social Hub, complete with a striking ceiling design and space to seat 100 and suitable for a variety of flexible uses.
  A new survey of the Maths Building is imminent and full access information will be made available once surveying is completed.
