Facilities and resources
Lab facilities
Mithras House has a series of ‘labs’, which are used for teaching and student and staff research work.
This lab is used for psychological research using equipment including eye-tracking and virtual reality research devices, as well as an electroencephalography headset and Electrodermal Activity equipment.
A specialist workspace with computing equipment for statistical analysis and projects involving video and audio editing software. The lab contains eight soundproof booths for recording or transcribing interviews undertaken as part of dissertation research.
A space designed for collaborative student learning. It is used by students and staff involved in the university’s global challenges programme, our collective mission to contribute towards solutions to tackling the pressing issues facing our world.
