Since 2016, 果冻影院 East Director Professor Paola Lettieri FREng, has been heading up the team of world leading academics from across nine of 果冻影院鈥檚 Faculties, who have been planning and designing the new facilities and courses for 果冻影院 East. Professor Lettieri said:

鈥淚 can鈥檛 wait to welcome students, staff and the public onto what I believe will be the most exciting university campus in the world. Not only are we in the Olympic Park, itself a living testbed for technology and innovation - whether hydrogen powered vehicles or the latest wheelchair technology 鈥� but we also have a campus and ways of working that have discovery, sustainability and biodiversity at their core. We can guarantee that studying, working or living at 果冻影院 East will be your chance to change the world.

鈥淭he issues facing people and the planet have never been more complex or more urgent. The increased scale and space that 果冻影院 East will give us, on a campus where departments and faculties are all coming together to problem solve under the same roof, will accelerate breakthroughs and the disruptive discoveries 果冻影院 is known for around the world.

鈥淛ust as importantly, the challenges around public health, inequality, economic development, social justice and sustainability that 果冻影院 has long worked to address, all impact on lives in east London. Our programmes at 果冻影院 East include work with our local community and surrounding boroughs to design research opportunities that ensure our staff and students have an immediate impact beyond the lab or lecture theatre. We will be working on the issues local people say are important to them. I look forward to welcoming you to 果冻影院 East in September.鈥�

Professor Anthony Smith, 果冻影院 Vice-Provost (Faculties), said: 鈥淪ince 果冻影院 was founded in 1826, we have gained a reputation for doing things differently to create a better world. We were the first university in England to welcome students of all faiths or no faith, and the first to teach women on an equal footing with men. Innovating for a fairer society is what we do.

鈥淭his is the largest expansion in our history. Along with our East Bank partners, we are driving the most ambitious education and cultural development in the UK since the Great Exhibition gave rise to the Kensington museums in London in 1861, but with all the added benefits that the Olympic Park brings.

鈥淪tudying or working at 果冻影院 East will provide our students and staff with unprecedented opportunities to be at the forefront of new knowledge, make an impact in our communities and build diverse professional and social networks that will last a lifetime and change lives.
