Where is Coventry University?
Coventry University’s modern, purpose-built campus covers 33 acres of ground in the centre of Coventry. Improvements are constantly being carried out to ensure that the working environment is as pleasant and as welcoming as possible. The campus’ location at the hub of the City means you can enjoy the benefits of being close to shops, banks, the main bus station and the railway station. Because the University is contained on one campus, you will not have to waste time traveling between lectures, and you will soon start to recognise the same faces every day. It also means cafés, refectories and the Students’ Union are all on hand when you want a break, to meet friends or finish for the day. Before long, you will not only feel part of the University but part of the City, too. But do not just take our word for it—you are welcome to come and take a look around, either on one of the open days or on an informal visit at any time to get a glimpse of campus life.

History
Coventry University has a long tradition as a provider of education. It can trace its roots as far back as Coventry College of Design in 1843. It was in 1970 that Coventry College of Art amalgamated with Lanchester College of Technology and Rugby College of Engineering Technology. The resulting institution was called Lanchester Polytechnic: ‘Lanchester’ after the Midlands automotive industry pioneer, Dr Frederick Lanchester, and ‘Polytechnic’ meaning ‘skilled in many sciences and arts’.

In 1987, the name was changed to Coventry Polytechnic. In 1992, we adopted the title Coventry University. However, the Lanchester name has been preserved in the title of our art gallery, the Lanchester Gallery, as well as in the Lanchester Library and our Lanchester Restaurant.
