Getting here

The University of Sunderland in London is part of a global institution, in the heart of the UK's capital. Spread across two buildings, you'll find us just a stone's throw from the major financial sector of Canary Wharf. We offer life-changing opportunities for thousands of students in London and our partner colleges in Sunderland and Hong Kong. With courses dedicated to business, management, tourism, events, nursing, healthcare and engineering, we're putting our students at the heart of everything we do.

Our buildings

Our main building is located in Marsh Wall, near Canary Wharf. Here you can find our main facilities, including the Library and our Services for Students. Most of your classes will take place here.

Some of your teaching might take place in the Harbour Exchange building, which is located just opposite our main building. All classrooms in this space sit on the 3rd floor of Harbour Exchange building no.4.

Take the Piccadilly Line from Heathrow Terminals 2 & 3 to Green Park. From there transfer to the Jubilee Line and get off at Canary Wharf station where you can walk to Marsh Wall or Harbour Exchange.
