Cross Keys is the social hub of St Luke’s. The ground floor has been upgraded and refurbished and a first floor extension added. It is a great place to relax and enjoy drink/lunch. There is ample seating space and a quiet space on the first floor. This is the main social space for staff and students and the space can be booked outside of opening hours for socials and events.
The ground floor is used by the Graduate School of Education to simulate the classroom experience (if you look through the glass windows on the right hand side, you will see the ‘set’ of a primary school classroom!). The ground floor also houses the internationally renowned Children’s Health and Exercise Research Centre. The centre is devoted to the study of the exercising child and aims to initiate research in paediatric exercise science and disseminate the findings. The top two floors have small lecture theatres and seminar rooms. We also have teaching labs and brand new teaching kitchen for Nutrition students.
Access to the digital resources is 24/7 and available from wherever you are in the world. The digital library collection is larger than the print collection; what’s on the shelves is only a small proportion of what’s available, 90% of library journals are available online, 50 – 60% of library books are available online. St Luke’s library specifically supports medicine, sports science and education. It is open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week during the academic year, It has over 180 study seats, 40 computers, It has a 24 hour access computer room, 29 computers, It has a 24 hour access study room, 36 seats, It has a mix of individual, group and silent study areas Here in the College of Medicine and Health, we have three programmes that have clinical placements (Medicine, Medical Imaging and Nursing) and you could be placed at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital site (RD&E).
Sports facilities at Exeter are spread onto four different sites – some of the best sports facilities in the south west. Many of the facilities (Astro/water based/rubber crumb pitches, indoor tennis courts, squash courts, brand new gym called the Russell Seal Centre, etc.) are available on the Streatham Campus. Over six football pitches and two rugby pitches are available on University grounds near the Quay in Exeter (Duckes Meadows). About 10 minutes’ drive away (in Topsham) are county standard football/cricket and rugby pitches also owned by the University. Lastly, the building in front of you houses the remaining facilities. There are two sports halls, (one fully kitted out for 5-a-side football), one gymnasium equipped with cardio-vascular equipment (recently benefitted from at £50k investment in some state-of-the-art new gym equipment) and a heated indoor swimming pool. Students studying on St Luke’s also regularly use the facilities on the Streatham Campus
