University of Nottingham: Photo Tours

It’s been one week since our arrival but we cam-whored a lot! We are getting familiar with the buildings and our surroundings.

So I think it won’t be a wrong time to show you’all the pictures of where we are ‘supposed’ to hang in most =)
Of course cant be ALL of the buildings okay! It's just so big and has too many buildings!


University Park


As I've included in the previous pictures, here you are once again, Trent Building, serves as Malaysia Campus' Block A, complete with the clock tower.




Portland Building, where all the students activities are centered, so it's like Malaysia Campus' Student Association Building.
The food court located in the top floor, is said to be the nicest of all.










The Blackwell's Book Shop and Student Union Shop inside the Portland Building. There are also Natwest Bank, HSBC Bank, Pioneer Travel that assists in travelling including bus and train tickets, and Endsleigh Travel Insurance.

Still inside the Portland, where all the Student Union's offices are located.
They have executives of all positions that you will never think of: Equal Opportunities officer, Environment & Social Justice officer, Democracy & Communications officer, Intersite & Residentials Associations officer, etc.
And as you can see, the announcement board is fully utilised - the uni has never-ending continuous events!

Another important building, called Coates Building. It is seriously the longest building in the campus (has 5 entrances, I think). Very often to get lost, as every part looks similar! It houses most of the engineering faculties.

Hallward Library, probably the main library in the university, entered with card-accessed system. The other one is George Green Library, for science and engineering schools. Sometimes business book can be found in these two libraries, although it's not that complete.
Besides the facilities that a normal library have, this library also provides video conferencing room, projector room, silent study areas, laptop-hiring, and STARBUCKS!!




Looking for Biology Building? Just search for the highest chimney in the whole university.






But don't get cheated by its appearance, Biology Building hides a beautiful garden inside! Fyi, we are having one of our Applied Algebra class in this building
Still in the same place.


I know that this picture is irrelevant, but cant help to post it along! xD









Jubilee Campus

There are 5 main buildings here: Business School North Building, Exchange Building (besides lecture halls,there are also Natwest, Student Union Shop, Blackwells Book Shop, and a coffee shop), Djanogly Learning Resource Centre, Atrium Building (consists of CSIT department, Restaurant, and Education department), and lastly Business School South Building (lecture halls, computer labs, lectures offices, and Business library)















The Djanogly Learning Resource Centre, the CSIT students library with card-accessed system. There is a quite large computer lab in the top floor, so you can study while enjoying the view!



Well, this is ONE of the VIEWS that I was referring to... Nice right? Should be nicer when spring comes.. Oh, cant wait!
