Travel to our<br />
University<br />
We have three main campuses across the<br />
east of England, with our students studying<br />
in Colchester, Loughton and Southend. The<br />
eastern region, with countryside, coastline,<br />
picturesque towns and close proximity<br />
to London, has a lot to offer and interest.<br />
Each campus has excellent air, road, rail<br />
and sea links. This enables cheap and<br />
easy access around the region, into London<br />
and further afield if you are wishing to<br />
explore more of the UK and the EU.<br />
