Please share your views on a range of options to upgrade the University Centre.

More information about potential uses for a refurbished building is available on the University Centre future uses consultation webpage.

Members of the University community, and others who would like to share their views, are invited to complete a short survey, which closes on Friday 1 March.

There will be opportunities to view the options and find out more at a series of consultation events later this month.

  • Thursday 15 February, 10am-4pm at the West Hub
  • Wednesday 21 February, 1-2pm, Teams webinar. Please register for the online consultation event  
  • Tuesday 27 February, 10am-4pm at the University Centre

The University Centre was built to provide recreational and meeting space, as well as catering facilities, for those within the University community who did not have access to College amenities. Built in 1967 the University Centre is one of finest examples of brutalist architecture in Cambridge and is Grade II listed.

With no significant refurbishment in almost 60 years, and the building not currently being used as a social and dining hub, there is a need to establish how best to guarantee the building’s long term future. 

This is an early-stage consultation exercise to gauge views from within the University community about the future of the University Centre. Findings from this exercise will be used to inform the next stage of the project.
