University’s campus masterplan unveiled to the region
The unveiling of the University’s campus masterplan to key influencers in the Yorkshire region took place on 18 November.
The Investing in Knowledge, Creating Opportunity event was held at the University in partnership with the Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership and showcased the impact of the University’s diverse activities on the city, region, UK Plc and beyond.
The new campus master plan which will bring a significant £500m investment into the campus over the next 10 years supports the academic vision for increasing knowledge and opportunity and a focus on world-leading research, collaborative industry partnerships and further enhancing the student experience.
“We aim to create a world class campus at the heart of a vibrant city, where visitors arriving will recognise our commitment to invest in knowledge and opportunity through excellent student education and cutting edge research.” – Dennis Hopper, Director of Facilities
Every £1m the University of Leeds generates results in a further impact of £1.3m to the wider economy #leedsimpact https://t.co/QZAdX5q8lA
