Spaces for HDR students

HDR students can access a variety of individual and group study spaces across the University. Talk to your supervisor about what study spaces are available for HDR students in your faculty.

Libraries

The University has libraries located across all campuses that specialise in particular subjects. They have a wide range of facilities, including spaces for individual and group study.

See the full list of Library locations and opening hours on the Library website, or book a study space online.

Library Peer Learning Advisors (PLAs)

The Library PLAs are a team of current postgraduate students who provide peer-to-peer services for all students. You can chat to a PLA about anything, including advice on study skills, support with referencing, upskilling in new technologies, or just where to find the best study space on campus.

Find out more about Library PLAs.

University learning hubs

There are several learning hubs where you can find computers with Wi-Fi access, printing and scanning facilities. There are quiet spaces to study by yourself, or spaces for group work, including pods with touch screens and webcams.

Learning hubs remain open to students as long as the buildings they are in remain open.
