Welcome to Royce
Located in the popular student village, Royce consists of 19 accommodation blocks of two and three storeys. It is close to lecture halls, sports facilities, the library and is only a 20-minute walk from town. The hall is named after Sir Henry Royce, founder member of Rolls-Royce Ltd, a pioneer of aeronautical engineering in education.
Upcoming Plans

The below activities are not mandatory (unless specifically mentioned), and students are free to make their own choices about which activities they may choose to attend.
