I AM AN ALUMNUS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WESTMINSTER / PRACTICING ARCHITECT INTERESTED IN MAKING SOMETHING. CAN I USE THE LAB?

Unfortunately, we are only open to currently enrolled students and staff.

 

THE LAB LOOKS GREAT! CAN I COME AND VISIT IT?

We get lots of requests to visit the Lab and would love to show you round - but then we'd never get anything done! So unfortunately we can't accept requests for individual tours. We do though have several University Open Days throughout the year when you're very welcome to visit. You'll be able to see all the different areas of the Lab, as well as demonstrations of some of our digital tools. These tours are well worth the trip. We look forward to seeing you there!

 

WHERE CAN I FOUND MORE ABOUT THE OPEN DAYS?

Please visit the University Of Westminster website for further details. For a tour of the Lab, you should come to the Undergraduate open day at the Marylebone campus.

 

I REGISTERED TO USE THE LAB LAS YEAR, DO I NEED TO DO IT AGAIN?

Yes! Your Lab Registration lasts a maximum of a year, from September to the end of the academic year in August. We ask everyone to Register again each year to ensure our records are up-to-date and to give us the chance to tell you about any changes in the Lab from the previous year. It only takes a few minutes. If you haven’t already done so, do it now!

 

I AM A 3rd YEAR STUDENT (2021-22) AND DID MY ESSENTIALS IN MY FIRST YEAR OF UNI, DO I NEED TO DO THEM AGAIN?

Yes. We ask all students to do their essentials once again. Given that the Lab has been closed for some time and students haven't been able to use it it'd be good to get a refresher about health and safety. We have also changed some things and gotten new tools so doing them again will only be more useful for you. To book them please click here.

 

I AM A NEW STUDENT AND DON'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO LOGIN?

Make sure you have registered on our website and you're not using your Blackboard credentials as these will not work. To register just click here.

 

I AM DOING THE QUIZ FOR MY ESSENTIALS BUT I AM NOT ABLE TO SUBMIT THE FORM, WHAT DO I DO?

If the submit button doesn't appear at the end of the quiz then it means one or more of your answers are wrong. Please revise the theory and do the quiz again. 

DO I NEED TO WEAR A FACE MASK WHEN IN THE LAB?

Yes! Following the University's guidelines all staff and students must wear a face covering when inside the university unless they are exempt.

WHAT IS THE CAM LAB?

The CAMLab is the place where you'll find computers with all the softwares that we use in the Lab. In order to use it you must have a booking.
