University of Greenwich at Medway

The University of Greenwich’s historic Medway Campus in Chatham Maritime is home to the Faculty of Engineering and Science, the Natural Resources Institute, Medway School of Pharmacy and selected courses from the Faculty of Education, Health & Human Sciences. The campus benefits from a £50 million investment including the construction of extensive laboratories and research facilities.

Our community of students ranges from undergraduate, including Foundation courses, through to taught Masters and PhDs. Our strong international reputation attracts students from around the world and we currently have students representing more than 140 countries from around the globe

Connectivity

We share the Medway Campus with the University of Kent and Canterbury Christchurch University; known collectively as the Universities at Medway. Between the three universities there are more than 10,000 students. This brings huge benefits to our students including the vast resources in the Drill Hall library.

We are well connected to our Avery Hill and Greenwich Campus by a regular bus service, where our students have access to all facilities. We are well served by Chatham and Gillingham train stations with regular London and coast bound services. Students can access ample on-site car parking which attracts many local students who wish to live at home.
