Alison Gingell Building

The School of Health and Care at Coventry University is leading the way, equipping our students and researchers with advanced facilities and a wide range of skills and experiences to help them make a positive impact on the world.

Our Science and Health Building

The heart of this is our new Alison Gingell Building, a beacon of success for the city of Coventry.

Our world-class facilities give students an opportunity to learn in situations that mirror real life scenarios.

Our students can take risks, innovate and experience situations that are made to feel as ‘real’ as possible as they learn in a secure and inspiring environment.

Our facilities

Learning through exploration and simulation

Creating the next generation of Health and Life Sciences leaders and life-changing research.

When choosing a University, the facilities were really important, and knowing that the new Science and Health Building was coming to Coventry was a big draw. The labs that offer simulation are really important in preparing us for our placements, and I’ve not visited anywhere else with facilities that rival what we’ll have access to in the new building.
