Campus accessibility
We are dedicated to making our campus accessible to everyone and strive to enhance our visitor experience. The University is committed to promoting a positive attitude to everybody with an accessibility requirement and to creating the conditions in which all students can participate fully in the academic, social and recreational life of the University.
The campus is largely accessible, on occasions wheelchair users may be required to take an alternative route. The University has a rolling programme of improvements to existing facilities and aims to incorporate high standards of access for all into new buildings.
If you are attending one of our events and you have an individual request, please contact us before your event with as much notice as possible as this will allow us to address your request promptly. Please contact us via email at recruitmentevents@uea.ac.uk.
