DEU Estates Welcomes Leeds Trinity University's New City Campus

 18th March 2024

Leeds Trinity University is opening a new City Campus in the heart of Leeds city centre at Trevelyan Square for the 2024/25 academic year. This move is part of the university's plans to grow and provide more opportunities for students in the Leeds City Region.

This new campus is a 57,000-square-foot building in Talverly Square that aims to enhance student life and education by providing state-of-the-art facilities such as specialised labs, a trading room, a board room, a business engagement centre, a law court, a custody suite, and an advanced library space. The university is committed to refurbishing an existing structure for academic use, a sustainable way to develop the city.

The Talbot Hounds in Talverley Square are already a favourite among students. It provides a relaxed venue for those looking to decompress after lectures or catch up with mates. With its inviting atmosphere and wallet-friendly prices, this pub is ideally suited to the student crowd, particularly those attending Leeds Trinity University's new City Campus. 

At DEU Estates, we understand the importance of this development for students looking for quality accommodation in Leeds. The City Campus will house students from different academic backgrounds, such as the Business School, School of Computer Science, School of Construction and the Built Environment, School of Criminology, Investigation and Policing, and Law School. 

Leeds Trinity University is also expanding its Horsforth campus, alongside the new city centre location, to ensure students can access a comprehensive educational experience. This includes new Nursing and Biomedical Science programs, hoping to address key regional public sector workforce needs. 

This comes as Leeds Trinity University has been ranked top for student experience in Yorkshire and the Humber and second for teaching quality in the region in The Times and Sunday Times Good Universities Guide 2023. Nationally, the institution was placed 18th in the UK for student experience and joint 24th for teaching quality, reflecting high student satisfaction rates in the latest National Student Survey (NSS)*.

DEU Estates is proud to help students find top-notch living spaces near these excellent educational facilities. We are committed to assisting Leeds Trinity University students in finding comfortable, convenient, and high-quality accommodation. With the new City Campus and our expertise in student lettings, Leeds is an even more attractive destination for students seeking a dynamic and enriching university experience.

*The NSS rankings are based on the institutions included in The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide. In 2023, 131 Higher Education Institutions published their results, and the rankings include all registered students, including those taught on campus at Leeds Trinity in Horsforth, Leeds, and those taught at the university's franchise partners. The results used in this analysis are rounded to whole numbers, which is in line with common practice across the sector and some league tables.
